Kaleidescape
With headquarters in Mountain View, California, Kaleidescape is an American multimedia trailblazer in home entertainment. With a mission dating back to 2001, they've designed multi-room home entertainment server systems that seamlessly store and deliver premium video and audio content, encompassing movies, TV shows, and music, directly to your television or projector.
At a time when the concept of enjoying high-quality movies at the touch of a button was groundbreaking, Kaleidescape emerged as a pioneer. They introduced the Kaleidescape Premiere system, which converted customers' DVD collections into an intuitive hard drive interface. This innovation not only simplified movie access, but also created a luxurious home theater experience, complete with lighting and curtain controls. As Blu-ray took center stage, they unveiled their second-generation Premiere products, combining legendary convenience with the new HD format, further elevating the home cinema experience.
Kaleidescape's founders always envisioned a future without physical media, and this vision became a reality in 2012 when they launched the first online movie store. It delivered full Blu-ray quality video and audio over the internet, setting a new industry standard. Their subsequent Strato product line introduced 4K Ultra HD movies, with superior quality and selection.
Today, Kaleidescape is the gold standard in digital movie platforms, offering lossless audio and reference video quality. Their audio and video bitrates, both ten times higher than typical streamers, results in unparalleled clarity and precision. What truly sets them apart is their meticulous annotation of each movie, allowing seamless integration with home automation, such as screen masking and light dimming to match each film’s unique moments, for a next level movie experience – a feat streaming services can't replicate. In the realm of home cinema, Kaleidescape epitomizes excellence, aiming to make every movie a masterpiece. Just press play and let the magic unfold.
