What's the difference between 3D movies, 4D movies and 5D movies?

3D stereoscopic cinema is a digital movie based on ordinary projection. When making the film source, the left and right eyes of the film source are displayed in two ways, and each channel is projected with two projectors. The left and right eyes of the film source are projected on the left and right eyeballs of the audience through the polarizing lens and the polarizing lens respectively, thus producing a three-dimensional on-the-spot effect.

4D dynamic cinema-Compared with 3D stereoscopic cinema, it is based on 3D stereoscopic cinema, plus various special effects and professional dynamic seats in the surrounding environment of the audience.

5D movies contain all the functions of 4D movies. It uses seat special effects and environmental special effects, has surreal visual experience and special stimulation effect, and simulates actual events with simulated scenes and special organ settings.

2. Movie viewing experience

A 3D movie overlaps two images to create a three-dimensional effect. The audience watched with stereoscopic glasses and felt immersive.

4D movie (or 4D movie) is a new film and television product based on 3D stereoscopic movie and simulating peripheral special effects, but it is not a four-dimensional space in the geometric sense. It is to introduce the effects of vibration, blowing, water spraying, smoke, bubbles, smell, scenery and character performance into 3D movies to form a unique performance form.

These special effects are closely combined with the plot, and the special equipment of the cinema chair creates an environment consistent with the content of the film, allowing the audience to experience the new entertainment effect brought by the film through multiple physical senses such as vision, smell, hearing and touch, which is immersive and thrilling.

5-D movies add dynamic seats and special environmental effects on the basis of 3-D stereoscopic effects, so that the audience's hearing, vision and touch can achieve the strongest sense of reality, just like being in a movie.
