Mallard PictureBlend

PATENT PENDING. Made in the USA

Mallard PictureBlend.

A patent pending, cost and time saving optical baffle system available only from Electric Picture Display Systems.

Create blended night simulation displays… faster than ever before.

Night Training has become a larger part of simulation and multi-image projection bringing with it an unwanted side effect of overlapped projected light. To eliminate this problem, optical masking is required. Until now, optical masking solutions were expensive to buy, install, and adjust. Mallard PictureBlend raises the bar set by the Mantis shadow mask with an affordable solution that is fast and easy to install, adjust and maintain. Electric Picture Display Systems’ Mallard PictureBlend System precisely masks unwanted light WHEN and WHERE needed. This proprietary technology features flexible masking and programmable control. Features include:

  • Multiple position presets for day, night and dusk/dawn
  • Optimized for curved and spherical simulation surfaces
  • Easily controlled remotely via touch screen panel
  • Easily integrated with Blending/Warping software
  • Unit and System API interfaced via ethernet
  • 4-step electromechanic actuation for greater accuracy and repeatability
  • Fast Installation – in as little as 15 min/channel
  • Quiet Operation – to enhance simulation experience
