The digital format uses dual laser projectors, which can show 1.43 digital content when combined with a 1.43 screen. The film format uses very large screens of 18 by 24 metres (59 by 79 feet) and, unlike most conventional film projectors, the film runs horizontally so that the image width can be greater than the width of the <a href="/wiki/Film_stock" title="Film stock">film stock</a>. It is called the <a href="/wiki/70mm#IMAX" class="mw-redirect" title="70mm">15/70 format</a>. They can be purpose-built theaters and <a href="/wiki/Fulldome" title="Fulldome">dome theaters</a>, and many installations of this type limit themselves to a projection of high quality, short documentaries. </p><p>The dedicated buildings and projectors required high construction and maintenance costs, necessitating several compromises in the following years. To reduce costs, the IMAX SR and MPX systems were introduced in 1998 and 2004, respectively, to make IMAX available to <a href="/wiki/Multiplex_(movie_theater)" title="Multiplex (movie theater)">multiplex</a> and existing theaters. The SR system featured slightly smaller screens than GT theatres, though still in purpose-built auditoriums with a 1.43:1 aspect ratio. The MPX projectors were solely used to retrofit existing multiplex auditoriums, losing much of the quality of the GT experience.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Later came the introduction of the IMAX Digital 2K and IMAX with Laser 4K in 2008 and 2014 respectively, still limited in respect to the 70 megapixels of equivalent resolution of the original 15/70 film. Both technologies are purely digital and suitable to retrofit existing theaters. Since 2018, the Laser system has been employed to retrofit full dome installations, with limited results due to the large area of a dome screen. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=IMAX&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:IMAX_comparison.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fb/IMAX_comparison.svg/250px-IMAX_comparison.svg.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="144" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fb/IMAX_comparison.svg/330px-IMAX_comparison.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fb/IMAX_comparison.svg/500px-IMAX_comparison.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="750" data-file-height="492" /></a><figcaption>A comparison between 35 mm and 15/70 mm negative areas</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Multiscreen_Corporation">Multiscreen Corporation</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=IMAX&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Multiscreen Corporation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The single-projector/single-camera system they eventually settled upon was designed and built by Shaw based upon a novel "Rolling Loop" film-transport technology purchased from Peter Ronald Wright Jones, a machine shop worker from Brisbane, Australia.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Film projectors do not continuously flow the film in front of the bulb, but instead "stutter" the film travel so that each frame can be illuminated in a momentarily-paused still image. This requires a mechanical apparatus to buffer the jerky travel of the film strip. The older technology of running 70 mm film vertically through the projector used only five sprocket perforations on the sides of each frame; however, the IMAX method used fifteen perforations per frame.<sup id="cite_ref-gizmodo.com_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-gizmodo.com-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The previous mechanism was inadequate to handle this intermittent mechanical movement that was three times longer, and so Jones's invention was necessary for the novel IMAX projector method with its horizontal film feed. As it became clear that a single, large-screen image had more impact than multiple smaller ones and was a more viable product direction, Multiscreen changed its name to IMAX. Co-founder Graeme Ferguson explained how the name IMAX originated:<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <blockquote><p>... the incorporation date [of the company was] September 1967. ... [The name change] came a year or two later. We first called the company Multiscreen Corporation because that, in fact, was what people knew us as. ... After about a year, our attorney informed us that we could never copyright or trademark Multivision. It was too generic. It was a descriptive word.

film reel at Cosmonova</figcaption></figure> <p>In the late-1960s, the San Diego Hall of Science (later known as the San Diego Space and Science Foundation) began searching North America for a large-format film system to project on the dome of their planned 23.16 m (76.0 ft) tilted <a href="/wiki/Dome" title="Dome">dome</a> <a href="/wiki/Planetarium" title="Planetarium">planetarium</a>. The standard IMAX projector was unsuitable for use inside a dome because it had a 3.65 m (12.0 ft) tall lamp house on top. IMAX Corporation redesigned its system, adding an <a href="/wiki/Elevator" title="Elevator">elevator</a> to lift the projector to the center of the dome from the projection booth below. <a href="/wiki/MKS_Instruments" title="MKS Instruments">Spectra Physics</a> designed a suitable lamphouse that took smaller, 46 cm (18 in) lamps and placed the bulb behind the lens instead of above the projector. In 1970,<sup id="cite_ref-69" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-69"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>69<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Ernst Leitz Canada, Ltd. (now <a href="/wiki/ELCAN_Optical_Technologies" title="ELCAN Optical Technologies">ELCAN Optical Technologies</a>) won a contract to develop and manufacture a <a href="/wiki/Fisheye_lens" title="Fisheye lens">fisheye lens</a> projection system optimized to project an image onto a dome instead of a flat screen. </p><p>The dome system, which the San Diego Hall of Science called "Omnimax", uses films shot with a camera equipped with a <a href="/wiki/Fisheye_lens" title="Fisheye lens">fisheye lens</a> that squeezes a highly distorted <a href="/wiki/Anamorphic" class="mw-redirect" title="Anamorphic">anamorphic</a> 180° field of view onto the 65 mm IMAX film. The lens is aligned below the center of the frame, and most of the bottom half of the circular field falls beyond the edge of the film. The part of the field that would fall below the edge of the dome is masked. When filming, the camera is aimed upward at an angle that matches the tilt of the dome. When projected through a matching fisheye lens onto a dome, the original panoramic view is recreated. Omnimax wraps 180° horizontally, 100° above the horizon and 22° below the horizon for a viewer at the center of the dome. Omnimax premiered in 1973, showing <i><a href="/wiki/Voyage_to_the_Outer_Planets" title="Voyage to the Outer Planets">Voyage to the Outer Planets</a></i> (produced by Graphic Films) and <i><a href="/wiki/Garden_Isle" class="mw-redirect" title="Garden Isle">Garden Isle</a></i> (by Roger Tilton Films) on a double bill.

The projection room is often windowed to allow public viewing of the equipment in operation, and it is often accompanied by informational placards like other exhibits. For some theaters, before the show begins, the screen can be backlit to show the speakers and girders behind it. </p><p>The screen may be a permanent fixture, such as at the <a href="/wiki/Museum_of_Science_and_Industry_(Chicago)" title="Museum of Science and Industry (Chicago)">Museum of Science and Industry</a> (<a href="/wiki/Henry_Crown_Space_Center" title="Henry Crown Space Center">Henry Crown Space Center</a>) in Chicago, Illinois; the <a href="/wiki/Fort_Worth_Museum_of_Science_and_History" title="Fort Worth Museum of Science and History">Fort Worth Museum of Science and History</a>; the <a href="/wiki/Franklin_Institute" title="Franklin Institute">Franklin Institute</a> in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; the <a href="/wiki/St._Louis_Science_Center" class="mw-redirect" title="St. Louis Science Center">St. Louis Science Center</a>; <a href="/wiki/Museum_of_Science_(Boston)" title="Museum of Science (Boston)">Boston's Museum of Science</a>; <a href="/wiki/Richmond,_Virginia" title="Richmond, Virginia">Richmond's</a> <a href="/wiki/Science_Museum_of_Virginia" title="Science Museum of Virginia">Science Museum of Virginia</a>; the Charlotte Observer IMAX Dome Theatre at <a href="/wiki/Discovery_Place" title="Discovery Place">Discovery Place</a>, Charlotte, North Carolina; Birmingham, Alabama's <a href="/wiki/McWane_Science_Center" title="McWane Science Center">McWane Science Center</a>; <a href="/wiki/US_Space_and_Rocket_Center" class="mw-redirect" title="US Space and Rocket Center">US Space and Rocket Center</a> in Huntsville, Alabama; the <a href="/wiki/Cincinnati_Museum_Center_at_Union_Terminal" class="mw-redirect" title="Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal">Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal</a>; the <a href="/wiki/Great_Lakes_Science_Center" title="Great Lakes Science Center">Great Lakes Science Center</a> in Cleveland, Ohio; the <a href="/wiki/Ontario_Science_Centre" title="Ontario Science Centre">Ontario Science Centre</a> in Toronto, Ontario; and <a href="/wiki/Science_World_(Vancouver)" title="Science World (Vancouver)">Science World</a> in Vancouver, British Columbia. </p><p>Alternatively, the dome may be lowered and raised as needed, such as at the <a href="/wiki/Science_Museum_of_Minnesota" title="Science Museum of Minnesota">Science Museum of Minnesota</a>, and the former installation at the <a href="/wiki/Canadian_Museum_of_History" title="Canadian Museum of History">Canadian Museum of History</a> (where it shared an auditorium with a standard IMAX screen, all replaced with a <a href="/wiki/Barco_(manufacturer)" title="Barco (manufacturer)">Barco</a> CINE+ digital theatre system in 2016).<sup id="cite_ref-72" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-72"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>72<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The entire dome could be raised to show flat-screen features, and repositioned for immersive features. </p><p>While the majority of museum installations focus on educational and documentary films, on special occasions entertainment films are also shown, such as <i><a href="/wiki/Charlie_and_the_Chocolate_Factory_(film)" title="Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (film)">Charlie and the Chocolate Factory</a></i> at the <a href="/wiki/Oregon_Museum_of_Science_and_Industry" title="Oregon Museum of Science and Industry">Oregon Museum of Science and Industry</a>.

The lenses are separated by a distance of 64 mm (2.5 in), the average distance between a human's eyes. Two separate rolls of film are used to capture the images they produce. The IMAX 3D camera weighs over 113 kg (249 lb). By projecting the two films superimposed on the screen and using one of several available methods to direct only the correct image to each eye, viewers see a 3D image on a 2D screen. One method is to use <a href="/wiki/Polarizer" title="Polarizer">polarizing filters</a> to oppositely <a href="/wiki/Linear_polarization" title="Linear polarization">polarize</a> the light used in projecting each image. The viewer wears glasses with polarizing filters oriented to match the projector filters, so that the filter over each eye blocks the light used to project the images intended for the other eye. In another method, the two projections rapidly alternate. While one image is being shown, the projection of its mate is blocked. Each <a href="/wiki/Film_frame" title="Film frame">frame</a> is shown more than once to increase the rate and suppress flicker.

It uses two 2K-resolution projectors that can present either 2D or 3D content in <a href="/wiki/Digital_Cinema_Initiatives" title="Digital Cinema Initiatives">DCI</a> or IMAX Digital Format (IDF; which in itself is a superset of DCI). The digital installations have caused some controversy, as many theaters have branded their screens as IMAX after merely retrofitting standard auditoriums with IMAX digital projectors. The screen sizes in these auditoriums are much smaller than those in the purpose-built auditoriums of the original 15/70 IMAX format, and are limited to the 1.89:1 aspect ratio.

Peele's 2022 film <i><a href="/wiki/Nope_(film)" title="Nope (film)">Nope</a></i> was filmed with the current generation of 15/70 IMAX cameras and Kodak 65mm film.

"We created a virtual IMAX camera with 1.43:1 aspect ratio and developed a pipeline to allow us to simultaneously shoot the film for IMAX, and then crop down for our standard 2.39:1 format," Jane Yen, Lightyear visual effects supervisor, revealed during a press conference. One of the two director's of photography Jeremy Lasky later said "I think this is the first that has been made for IMAX in this way. There's about a third of the film that was shot for IMAX. And the easy answer is that we have a set of lenses. And when I say lenses, I mean CG made". A set of lenses that recreate the look of an anamorphic lens, which is your typical wide screen. You'll notice things out of focus in the background instead of being round are like stretched a little bit. There's like that blue lens flare that you see. It's anamorphic lenses where the way to shoot wide screen in the sixties, seventies, and then later got phased out a little bit, but they're still used today. But those effects call to a period of sci-fi that we were looking at, which is why those same lenses or versions of those lenses were used on <i><a href="/wiki/WALL-E" title="WALL-E">WALL-E</a></i>". Later he recommend "So for the 30 or so minutes of the movie in IMAX, we shot with those lenses opened up to the 1.43 aspect ratio and composed for that while keeping the composition as clear and as solid for a 2.39 crop from the center. So the wide screen image is pulled out of the IMAX image. Which all sounds really technical, but all it really means is, when you're watching it an IMAX screen, we were thinking about those scenes as IMAX. And it wasn't just some after the film was done, blow up of the movie".<sup id="cite_ref-128" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-128"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>128<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In December 2022, it was announced that IMAX have certified the Red V-Raptor as a new certified camera and that <a href="/wiki/James_Gunn" title="James Gunn">James Gunn</a>'s <i><a href="/wiki/Guardians_of_the_Galaxy_Vol._3" title="Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3">Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3</a></i> will be the first film to shoot with the cameras instead of the Red Ranger Monstro.<sup id="cite_ref-auto3_33-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-auto3-33"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>33<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Nolan's <i><a href="/wiki/Oppenheimer_(film)" title="Oppenheimer (film)">Oppenheimer</a></i> was also filmed with the current generation of 15/70mm IMAX cameras and Kodak 65 mm film.
