As more than 300 million people around
the world will testify, seeing an IMAX® film is a
stunning experience.It puts you into the centre of the
action in a way no ordinary screen presentation can, drawing
you in with images that are so real you want to touch
them, so powerful that you can feel them.
IMAX® is, quite simply, the finest motion picture
system that exists. Images of surpassed size, clarity
and impact are seen on giant screens, enhanced by a superb
six-channel sound system.
Recognized in 1986 with an Academy Scientific and Engineering
Award, this revolutionary system has changed the history
of cinema, drawing record-breaking audiences to is theatres
around the world.
IMAX® premiered in 1970 to enthusiastic acclaim. Its
sister system, IMAX® DOME (OMNIMAX) debuted three
years later.
More than two decades of research, development and engineering
have pushed Imax's state-of-the-art technology even further
to include sophisticated computer animation, the world's
first high-fidelity 3D, new configurations and simulators.
Beyond the superior technology, the content of IMAX®
films stretches the mind and the imagination. This melding
of form and content results in an overwhelming experience
for the viewer. "I felt I was in the picture" is the recurring
sensation.
