The Walt Disney Co. and Dolby Laboratories, Inc. said they will install 100 digital movie systems in theaters this fall, marking the third recent unveiling of plans for digital cinema that could revolutionize the film industry.

Media giant Disney and technology maker Dolby, which is providing the computer servers for the systems, plan to install the systems in the top 25 U.S. cities at their own expense.

Disney and Dolby said plans call for the systems to be in place for the Nov. 4 release of Disney's computer-animated movie "Chicken Little," a computer-generated 3-D movie using visual effects from George Lucas' Industrial Light & Magic.
