What is the Christie 156-107109-01 camera kit?
The Christie 156-107109-01 is a 5MP CCD PoE Ethernet camera paired with a 5mm lens, sold as a kit for Christie Mystique camera-based warping and blending. Christie pre-calibrates the camera and lens as a pair for maximum image quality, and the 5mm lens is the widest of Christie's four lens options. It is the camera Mystique uses to automatically align multi-projector blends and stacks.
How does the Christie 156-107109-01 work?
Mystique uses the camera to view the projected image, then calculates the warp and blend for each projector and applies it to projectors running Christie Twist. Christie states the system auto-calibrates in under two minutes per projector.
The camera connects over Ethernet with Power over Ethernet, so a single network cable carries power and data. Christie notes that additional networking considerations apply, so plan the switch, VLAN and PoE budget with the projector network.
The 5mm lens gives the widest field of view in the range (Christie also offers 8mm, 12mm and 16mm pairs), which suits short camera-to-screen distances and wide displays. Christie's Mystique camera calculator recommends the right lens for a given screen.
Christie lists a separate color version of this kit (156-151108-XX). Mystique's automated color and brightness uniformity and background compensation features require a single color camera, so choose the color kit if you need those features.
Mystique Essentials Edition supports up to 12 projectors in a 2x3 double-stacked layout on flat screens, and higher editions add curved, dome and complex surfaces. Creation Networks designs and commissions Mystique systems with projectors such as the Christie Griffyn 4K35-RGB and Christie M 4K25 RGB.
