5D Cinema System Consists of the Following:

Projector
The projectors used to present 3D images are not normal in regular movies. The frame rate of normal projectors is 60 Hz, while the rate of 3D projectors is 120 Hz. The proportion is doubled. This is because more output details are required in showing a 3D movie. The 3D projector must also possess a resolution of at least 2k (2048x1080p) for a clearer image on a wide screen. The most popular providers of commercial cinema projectors are Dolby 3D and IMAX.

Screen
Silver screens are usually used in 3D cinemas. Since plenty of light is used in showing a 3D movie, a silver screen is needed to provide more light for contrast. White screens, which are much cheaper, have soon replaced silver screens in cinemas. Right now silver screens are making a comeback in 3D movie houses.

There are three kinds of screen types:
1. Metal Screen, high-gain metal screen
2. Arc Screen
3. 360° Degree Screen

Sound System
A 3D cinema should not only provide a wonderful visual experience but a great auditory experience as well. In an IMAX 3D theater, up to 44 speakers provide the viewers with surround sound. The speakers require 12,000 watts of electric power for a fantastic viewing experience.

3D Glasses
The viewers need to wear 3D glasses to enjoy the 3D effect. These glasses are polarized and matched with the projector. Therefore, the audience can’t just use any type of glasses; instead, the glasses should be compatible with the projector.

Films
The latest 3d film is around 90-150 minutes.
