If a family member is watching a 3D movie in the home theatre, it can be watched in the master bedroom or kitchen at the same time, in 2D; you don’t have to have a 3D TV in every room.

Crestron DM enables customers to enjoy the 3D experience in the comfort of their own homes. With DM, uncompressed digital signals, HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort, Ethernet and USB keyboard/mouse control are managed and distributed up to 330 feet over a single DM 8G shielded twisted pair wire or up to 1000 feet via a multimode fibre strand.

“Similar to the adoption of HDTV, interest in and demand for 3D capabilities are steadily increasing,” explained Crestron director of marketing Vincent Bruno.

“New 3D movies hit the cinemas every week; 3D is being supported by more and more televisions – even some projectors – as well as Blu-ray and PlayStation 3. Especially since analogue doesn’t support 3D, designers and integrators need to be sure they have the right solution. That solution is DM.”

Crestron recently introduced DigitialMedia 8G, the first ever 8GB AV and control network that distributes full HD over a single wire. DM 8G makes it easy to enjoy all the rich media benefits of digital content, including razor-sharp HD video, 3D content, video games including Xbox 360, streaming Internet content, Blu-ray Disc, Apple Mac and MacBook, as well as the latest high-performance surround sound audio formats.
