Christie's exhibits at booth # 1612 focus on monitoring/surveillance/command and control, as well as classroom training, and they include:

Christie MicroTiles. Ideal for command/control and surveillance, the display will demonstrate MicroTiles' handling of multiple high definition, standard definition and PC input sources simultaneously in a single pixel space. Notable for their super fine pixel pitch of 0.567mm, a narrow 10" (260mm) depth and continuous automatic color and brightness calibration, MicroTiles are viewable from any angle, with easy front access for quick service. Display content for the 4 x 6 array is provided by Jupiter Systems, which is showcasing its revolutionary PixelNet® distributed display system. With PixelNet, any information source can be shown in any size on any display, as a window on a single display, or as a window spanning multiple display devices. It can also be scaled from a single input distributed to a single output to literally hundreds of inputs and outputs.

Christie DUW670-E and Christie LWU420. Ideal for classrooms, meeting rooms and auditoriums, the Christie DUW670-E 1-Chip DLP projector - featuring WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution and up to 6000 ANSI lumens of brightness - and the Christie LWU420 inorganic 3-LCD projector, with WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution and 4200 ANSI lumens, will both be on display.

Christie Entero™ LED 72" video wall display cubes. Will be on display at the Jupiter booth # 203. The world's first LED-based SXGA+ and WUXGA resolution projection display system, the Christie Entero LED is a 1-chip DLP® product line purpose-built for control room and video wall applications. It features a "zero maintenance" design, with LEDs rated at more than 60,000 hours - almost seven years of dependable operation. With no consumable components such as lamps, filters or color wheels to replace, the Christie Entero LED delivers the ultimate in uninterrupted, 24/7 performance for exceptional reliability and low cost of ownership.

A number of Christie MicroTiles will also be on display at the Technical Innovation booth # 1801 as well as the MicroTech booth # 1441.
