There are 16,405 digital cinema screens around the world, an increase of 86.4 per cent on 2008, with further growth to come in 2010 as digital 3D pushes the market towards a 35mm-free cinema sector. This means that 14.8 per cent of the world's modern cinema screens are digitized, and 9,000 are also equipped with digital 3D (55 per cent of total digital screens).

Technicolor has reached an agreement with New York City-based Bow Tie Cinemas to install Technicolor 3D in all Bow Tie locations on 25 of its 150 screens.

 

Technicolor 3D is a new 3D system for 35mm projectors, enabling exhibitors to equip theatres for 3D at a fraction of the cost of installing a digital 3D projection system.
