CINÈST Launches the Core Collection on Kickstarter

CINÈST, a new home entertainment brand from POVISON, is launching its first product line — dubbed the Core Collection — via Kickstarter on August 19, 2026. As part of this venture, the company is introducing an integrated ultra-short-throw (UST) projector cabinet system that aims to combine high-performance cinematic technology with sophisticated interior design. With this approach, CINÈST seeks to address the common frustrations of traditional home theater setups such as exposed wiring, incompatible components, and mismatched furniture.

Notable features in the Core Collection include a Four-Way Rapid Precision Platform with one-click memory for instant and accurate projector alignment, an integrated cable management system, and an active cooling system to protect device lifespan, all housed within a cabinet that boasts upgraded materials and build quality.

Ultimately, the Core Collection allows design-conscious consumers to enjoy a high-quality cinematic experience.
