® Depth. Q Polarization Modulator - Advantages Over Old Technology -

Competing methods for viewing digitally projected stereoscopic images are leveraging patents filed in the 1980’s. COMPETING TECHNOLOGIES: Pi-cell Liquid Crystal 1987 Spinning Polarizer Pre-1985

The Depth. Q Polarization Modulator is a newly- patented process for polarization switching, not an old technology. ® Patent issued September 2011

Depth. Q switches states nearly instantaneously in both directions. Competing technologies are significantly slower. ® Key design features: • Ultra-fast switching between two polarization states • Superior response time: 50 microseconds (µs) in both directions • This results in a very small potential ‘Dark Time’ - only 0. 72% @ 144 Hz (Dark Time = time to change from Left state to Right state, or vice versa) OLD TECH (Pi-cell Liquid Crystal) Conventional polarization modulator illustrating slow transition in one direction (~500 µsec) DEPTHQ ® Depth. Q© Polarization Modulator Illustrating near-instantaneous switching in both directions (~50 µsec)

Depth. Q is clear and flat with high extinction - allowing sharply focused, bright, low-ghost 3 D images. ® Key design features: • Completely symmetric operation between left and right eyes, with high extinction at all wavelengths for dark states • Contrast ratio: >100: 1 • Open transmittance: 32%, >15% at projection measured through common 3 D glasses • Flatness/distortion quality-controlled using laser scanning

With today’s projector technology, slow Pi-cell switching can cause excess ghosting. Their problem: • Old Pi-cell technology requires ~500µs to fully change states • In an effort to keep 3 D as bright as possible, digital cinema projector ‘Dark Time’ with Pi-cells is often set as short as currently possible: about 350µs • This means projectors can switch eyes before Pi-cells finish switching state, allowing excess ghosting Pi-Cell switch time exceeds typical Pi-cell Dark Time You choose between extra ghost or dimmer image Depth. Q switches well within typical Dark Time – No chance of excess ghosting. ®

In the future, if projector Dark Times are reduced below 350µ 350 s, Depth. Q will allow even brighter images. ® How? • • • Dark Times are used to hide state changes from Left Eye to Right Eye and back Overall projector brightness is diminished by Dark Times The smaller the Dark Time, the brighter the final image At 50µs, Depth. Q potential Dark Time is almost inconsequential: Less than 1% of a frame (. 72%) at today’s 144 FPS speeds. ®

In the near future, projector manufacturers will begin to adopt new High Frame Rates (HFR). Depth. Q is more than ready. ® What’s driving faster 3 D projectors? • • • Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy was shot at 48 frames per second (FPS) James Cameron’s Avatar prequels will likely be shot at 60 FPS This will require high-end projectors to jump to 192 FPS for 3 D, and potentially 240 FPS With the world’s fastest switching speed, Depth. Q is already capable of 400 FPS. ®

Depth. Q ’s 50µ 50 s fast switching is even more important in conjunction with High Frame Rate movies/projectors. ® Why? • At 192 FPS Depth. Q will only require. 96% of a frame for Dark Time ® • At 240 FPS Depth. Q will only require 1. 2% of a frame for Dark Time ® Pi-cells will consume 10 -12% of your projectors’ light in Dark Time.

Competitive products use plastic linear polarization elements. Depth. Q uses nano-scale metal on glass to ensure longevity. ® Why? • Powerful lamps in digital cinema projectors create infra-red (thermal) energy which projector manufacturers filter in varying amounts. • Thermal heating can melt, warp and degrade the plastic linear element of any circular polarization modulator over time. Depth. Q employs this extra layer of high -tech protection to reflect harmful thermal energy while pre-polarizing incoming light. ® Nano-scale pre-polarizer wire pattern

Included with Depth. Q is a fast show-controllable actuator for switching between 2 D and 3 D. ® 3 D mode 2 D mode Actuator in motion ~4 seconds in either direction

Finally, we are so confident in our quality and longevity, we offer a Digital Cinema Five Year Optical, Three Year Electronics/Mechanical Warranty.
