Using GDC's Advanced Technologies to Automate Sight and Sound Operations

“After installing GDC’s CA2.0 automation system, we no longer manually power on and off the projection equipment, not to mention that the entire day of screenings in every screen is completely automated. The other key benefit of CA2.0 is its self-test of the projection equipment which takes only 5 minutes to obtain the QC results of the screening quality. CA2.0 is a highly automated system, it also provides our staff with a mobile phone APP to remotely monitor our cinema equipment. All in all, we are pleased with the decision to install CA2.0 which significantly improves our productivity and reduces our operation cost.”
