ci n e W i De ™   a n D c i n e W i De   W i t H a u t o S c o p e ™
Transforming Home THea Ter inTo True Home Cinema
Runco’s award winning development of CineWide™ and 
CineWide™ with AutoScope™ technology has created a 
revolution in faithful movie reproduction, for the first 
time transforming home theater into home cinema.
This technology provides uncompromised 
widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed 
in the CinemaScope™ 2.35:1 format. It maintains 
constant vertical height on the screen just as in a 
movie theater. When a viewer transitions from 1.78:1 
(16:9) program material to superwide 2.35:1, the image 
simply gets wider while full screen height is maintained, 
eliminating black bars.
This is done through an ingenious combination of software, electronics and precision 
anamorphic optics. With the AutoScope™ option, the anamorphic lens is motorized and  
remote controlled. 
With CineWide™ the projection system is able to use the full pixel array on its SuperOnyx™ 
DMD™ chip, thereby producing a 2.35:1 image with enhanced resolution and increased 
brightness. No resolution or image area is lost to useless black bars on the top and bottom of 
the screen that contain no picture information.
CineWide and autoscope technology is the talk of the industry.  These are among the awards and acknowledgements we have already received\
