PRESS RELEASE
Moon 3D Mobile Theatre available at Amazon, Smartech locations, and other European retailers soon
London, England, December 19, 2017 – Royole Corporation will now offer owners of the Moon 3D Mobile Theatre an opportunity to enjoy watching their favourite feature films through a new app called “Royole Lounge.” Royole Lounge is a completely integrated digital video service, making it easier than ever for fans to experience the premium features of the Moon 3D Mobile Theatre. With every new purchase of a Royole Moon, consumers will be offered three 2D or 3D movies from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (SPHE) redeemable through the Royole Lounge app, the built-in dedicated entertainment hub for Moon owners. Royole Lounge was originally launched in North America, and is now available in select European countries including Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.
“The addition of the Royole Lounge app and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment content now allows Moon 3D Mobile Theatre users to select from scores of the best, most popular, compelling film titles,” stated Dr. Bill Liu, Royole founder and CEO. “Moon users can now enjoy select 2D and 3D movies, straight out of the box, with the highest quality mobile cinematic experience available.”
The award-winning Moon 3D Mobile Theatre, designed and engineered for movies, gaming, and more, combines two full-HD 1080p AMOLED displays at over 3000ppi resolution that simulate a giant curved screen with stereoscopic 3D, and hi-fidelity active noise-cancelling headphones. The combination delivers cinematic movie-watching and immersive gaming experiences anywhere the wearer desires. Moon’s patented foldable design (the world’s first in a headset), ultra-soft headphone covers, and a premium breathable eye cover ensure comfort, even after long periods of continuous use.
Moon’s new operating system, Moon OS, utilises Royole’s patented flexible electronics technologies, allowing full control while eliminating the need for an external controller. Moon is capable of sourcing movies from smartphones, set-top boxes, gaming consoles, and PCs with an HDMI output. You can also access content from nearly any internet-based service, such as Netflix, Amazon Video, Hulu, YouTube, and more. It also can enhance gaming experiences on popular platforms, including PlayStation, Wii, Xbox, and others. With 2D/3D format auto-detection, the user experiences content the way it was designed to be enjoyed. Moon was created using the highest quality materials and comes in three stunning colours: black, white, and gold.
“We are constantly looking to drive innovation and engagement around our extensive catalogue of feature films, and the Royole Lounge allows us to do just that while creating a next-generation entertainment experience for the end consumer,” said Pete Wood, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, Senior Vice President, Digital Sales and Distribution.
