Case study
Ultimate projector reliability in Japanese movie theaters
Korona was established in 1926 in the Aichi prefecture (Japan) as a single movie theater. This served as the foundation for the biggest independent cinema company in Japan, operating 17 cinema complexes 158 screens – including karaoke halls, restaurants, bowling alleys, coffee shops and spas – around the country. The total workforce numbers 5,000 people.
With digital 3D movies gaining rapidly in importance, Korona wanted to equip 23 of its cinema theaters with this new technology. After considering a number of options, the company decided that Barco's DP2K series digital 3D projector was the best choice. The decision was not only based on the superb picture quality, but also on the easy maintenance and low cost of ownership of Barco's solution.
