Introducing the Digital Screen Calculator…

The latest free app for Screen Lifecycle Management!

Since launching the Digital Screen Modeller and Digital Screen Archiver tools last year we’ve been busy working on more additions to our screen lifecycle management toolkit.  We’re delighted to announce the launch of the Digital Screen Calculator a direct replacement for the now retired Digital Screen Selector.

The Digital Screen Calculator is a free utility available on Apple iOS, Android and via the Harkness website that allows engineers and exhibitors to ensure that digital cinema investments are fully optimised.  Quick and easy to use, the tool calculates the capabilities of equipment choices and provides recommendations on projector, lamp and screen choices based upon chosen screen size and light levels for 2D and 3D.  It also calculates theoretical operating costs and shows how screen choice might reduce these dramatically.  Its bi-directional functionality (accessible for registered users only) allows data entered into the tool to be re-used in the latest release of Harkness’ Digital Screen Modeller to fully simulate cinema conditions in a 3D environment. Likewise configurations defined in the Modeller can be exported directly to the Digital Screen Calculator to quickly calculate potential operating cost savings.

What’s more, existing users of the Digital Screen Modeller can utilise their existing login information to access additional functionality within the app such as saving, sharing, e-consultancy and of course the bi-directional functionality.

The Digital Screen Calculator is available now to download for FREE from both the Apple App Store and the Android Market.
