TI reported that all three of DLP Cinema licensees Barco, Christie and NEC have agreed to develop projector models using the S2K chip, which will join each manufacturers DLP Cinema 4K and 2K product lines. Preproduction versions of the S2K chipset have already been delivered to each licensee for product research and development. TI said production-ready chipsets are scheduled for delivery later this year, and S2K-based projectors can be expected to become available to exhibitors for ordering and installation soon after.
