Christie to showcase its range of trusted solutions at IAAPA 2023


The versatility and innovative design of Christie MicroTiles® LED will be highlighted at the booth. A curved video wall will showcase four pixel pitches of MicroTiles LED – 0.75mm, 1.0mm, 1.25mm, and 1.5mm.

A stand-alone display of MicroTiles LED in a 1.0mm pixel pitch will showcase the benefits of LED encapsulation, which provides a protective surface from dust, dirt, and scratches, and enhanced optical performance, resulting in increased black-level performance and perceived contrast.

A static M 4K25 RGB pure laser projector will also be on display so that visitors can see the projector’s industry-leading compact size for themselves. Christie’s RGB pure laser projectors are amongst the lightest, brightest, and most energy-efficient laser projectors available on the market and excel at producing the bright, vivid images that attractions require.

Service and support from Christie Professional Services

Members of Christie’s Professional Services team will be on hand to discuss how their service solutions keep systems running flawlessly. From flying theaters and dark rides to unique attractions and projection mapping experiences, Professional Services provides a tailored service-based approach to each customer.  Services include 24/7/365 technical support, onsite services, extended hardware coverage, remote monitoring with Cinergy, and more. New ChristieCare extended warranty plans provide complete system protection and maximum flexibility with a range of equipment coverage and on-site service options.

Christie across the show floor

Christie technology will be on display across the show floor. Image Engineering (booth #1381) will use two M 4K25 RGB pure laser projectors in a projection mapping display, while Falcon’s Creative Group (booth #1073) will use a DWU19-HS laser projector. Christie 65-inch Access Series LCD panels will be used at the TEA booth, #1069, and at Red Raion, in booth #660.

Getech Partners with Cozairo to Deliver Carbon Capture and Storage Solutions


Getech, a world-leading locator of subsurface resources, has signed a strategic collaboration agreement with US headquartered Cozairo, a specialist in carbon capture and storage (CCS) and a blue hydrogen project development company.

LONDON, Nov. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Getech, a world-leading locator of subsurface resources, has signed a strategic collaboration agreement with US headquartered Cozairo, a specialist in carbon capture and storage (CCS) and a blue hydrogen project development company.

Through this partnership agreement, the two companies will work collaboratively to identify CCS opportunities, providing a more complete market offering for CCS solutions to address the challenge of climate change.

Getech will use its industry-leading geoscience gravity and magnetic database, its proprietary Globe earth model and its geospatial analytics expertise to screen for attractive colocations of CO2 emitters and storage sites; to evaluate the suitability of the subsurface for carbon storage; and to prepare the geoscience component of licence applications and site monitoring plans.

Cozairo will deploy its unique CCS project development and geologic sequestration expertise to develop local, capital-efficient CCS projects capable of delivering best-in-class returns to industrial partners across sectors.

Together the companies will deliver end-to-end CCS solutions to non-oil and gas CO2 emitters seeking to reduce their carbon footprint. The focus will be on storing carbon in the vicinity of the emission point source, greatly reducing infrastructure and capital requirements, commercial complexity and the number of parties impacted by development of CCS projects.

Richard Bennett, CEO of Getech, said:

“Our companies possess complementary skills and capabilities in the area of CCS, with no overlaps. This makes our partnership the ideal solution for businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint in a safe, efficient and cost-effective manner.

The targets identified by the IEA and other bodies may seem ambitious, but this is a sector which has been ramping up activity to meet these future goals. The specific services Getech brings to market combined with Cozairo’s expertise have a crucial role to play in enabling more carbon storage.

The appetite from an increasing number of governments and policy makers across the world and the resultant incentives has been instrumental in helping to level costs. The increase in emission costs is closing the gap with CCS implementation capital expenditure, making this solution much more commercially viable.”

Tim Matthews, CEO of Cozairo, said:

“We are excited to partner with Getech, which brings industry-leading capabilities in the identification, assessment and monitoring of geologic storage reservoirs, to provide the very best in CO2 sequestration solutions to our clients. Access to proximal, cost-effective and permanent CO2 storage solutions is a key limiter to CCS project development across the globe, and Cozairo’s commitment to developing CCS projects that deliver low-cost, local storage solutions to our industrial partners is significantly enhanced by this collaboration.”

Omron Launches V460 Handheld Barcode Reader with Intelligent Lighting for Reading of Difficult Direct Part Marks and Labels


The new Omron handheld barcode reader provides an intelligent out-of-box reading experience to decode direct part marks and labels of a variety of sizes and distance, while seamlessly communicating to the most common PLC platforms.

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., Nov. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Leading automation solution provider, Omron Automation, launches its latest innovation for barcode reading technology for manufacturers in a variety of industries such as automotive, aerospace, life sciences, and logistics. This advanced barcode reader sets a new standard in reading all types of barcodes, including small labels and direct part marks on difficult surfaces.

Most industrial handheld barcode readers lack the ability to automatically adjust settings to instantly read different types of barcodes at different distances. Users often need multiple readers and complicated reprogramming to do this. With the V460 there is no need to purchase multiple units. The barcode reader comes native with a predictive autofocus feature, allowing it to automatically adjust to different sizes, surfaces, and types of barcodes.

Specialized lighting and algorithms are often required to read direct part marks on challenging surfaces. The V460 is equipped with patented intelligent lighting that allows the user to read any type of barcode with the automatic selection of high powered, multi-axis, multi-colored lighting. This feature enables the barcode reader to automatically select the most suitable type and color of lighting to the type of barcode that is presented.

Most handheld barcode readers require costly and complex traceability setup. The V460 offers a built-in Power over Ethernet port, a single Ethernet cable connection for power and communication and fieldbus connectivity. Users save time and integration cost with its simple connectivity and pre-built function blocks for the Ethernet & Fieldbus communications.
This rugged handheld is designed for long life in industrial situations. It is built to withstand the harsh treatment of the manufacturing environment. Its durability reduces hardware maintenance and replacement costs.
Industrial professionals can learn more about the new Omron handheld barcode reader here.
