That is the first of many "ifs"...
"If" you had read the article, you would have seen this:
The demo setup will also involve Wolf Cinema’s custom video processor, the ProScaler MK6.
That pretty much says that they are working on custom hardware. not just "rebadging" JVC equipment.
Yes I read the article. Their ProScalers are external add on scalers, not unlike Lumagens in that respect, so it still looks like a rebadged JVC with external scaler. This is their Mk5 scaler for example:

Unless you know different?
And since there are no 8K sources available, you should accept the fact that, so far, 8K displays and projectors are only going to upscale content.
That's pretty obvious isn't it.
Japan has 8k tvs and broadcast source material, for what it's worth, and if the performance of the JVCs own 4k upscaling is anything like their very first 1080 eshift model which just softened the image (some say it 'adds' apparent detail using interpolation, some can't see a difference), then it's just a marketing tool (be the first etc). Maybe the ProScaler Mk6 will be able to do something about that but we'll have to see - if the JVC is what processes the two incoming signals and determines what the final image looks like, then it could be that the ProScaler Mk6 is just an expensive add on with no additional benefit, but that's just a guess - it's early days yet, but it would be good if it could make a visible improvement. If it can't, it's just an expensive box. So far there are mixed reviews as to whether or not the 8k eshift is worth having, with some saying leave it turned off because just like JVCs current eshift, it just adds more noise to the image.
I don't know you and you don't know me, yet here you are attacking me in an aggressive way. Nice first message, you'll go far.
Handbags at 12 o'clock?
