The project Digital Cinema delivers solutions for the complete digital production of movies. This includes all aspects of cinema from camera to production, postproduction, different possibilities of reproduction and distribution.

In this cooperation the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, the Fraunhofer Institute for Media Communication IMK (now Fraunhofer IAIS) in St. Augustin, the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS with the department Image Sensor Technology and the former Fraunhofer Arbeitsgruppe in Ilmenau (now Institute for Digital Media Technology IDMT) were involved.

Objective of the project was the elaboration of concepts for the realization of a complete digital workflow for movie productions. Basic elements, developed in the context of the venture, are of significance for the development and the establishment of the electronic cinema.
Even after the end of the term of investment the research on the new founded Fraunhofer IDMT and on the Fraunhofer IMK in form of a common self research project is continued. A special aim is the production and the reproduction of digital sound and digital images according to the Wave Field Synthesis specifications.
