Projectors using LED light source technology are still moving towards the home market. The world-renowned home theater projector brand Sim2 also announced the launch of the top theater projector M120 with LED light source, which uses a 0.95 inch full HD DMD chip (this chip is generally used in high-end home projectors), With a brightness of 1000 lumens and a contrast ratio of 100,000:1, the performance configuration is at the first-class level in the current domestic and foreign projectors that use LED light sources.
The recent launch of an ultra-portable projector cooperating with Baidu Cloud TV and a domestic LED projector brand has attracted market attention. Compared with other products, the main focus of this product is not the brightness, but the integration of the processor and Android 4. 4 operating system, which can be easily connected to wifi, which greatly improves the practicality. And the machine built-in Baidu Cloud TV software, no need to connect any playback equipment, as long as access to wifi, you can watch TV programs through the software, this is also the most convenient portable projector we have used. The emergence of this product has also greatly improved the market acceptance of portable projector products.
The application of laser pointer light source is mainly based on high-brightness engineering projectors. In 2014, laser projectors were as hot as commercial movie blockbusters. The most noticed is Barco’s 6P laser projector. This is also the country’s first laser projector. It was first checked in at Jackie Chan International Studios at Sparkle Roll. It not only has the ability to project 4K movies, but also brings unprecedented visual shock to the audience when showing 3D movies.
The world’s first Barco 6P laser projector was installed in the world’s largest American cinema chain Ximanke, and Sparkle Roll Studios also realized the domestic deployment of this laser projection system. Barco’s 6P laser projector replaces the original xenon lamp dual projector system, and the projection brightness is increased to 60,000 lumens, which is 4 times the brightness of a traditional xenon projector when displaying 3D movies. With the built-in 3D technology of Barco’s 6P laser projector, the audience can get a more transparent and bright picture without using any external 3D system, allowing the naked eye to recognize more details.
And Barco is also the first brand authorized by the FDA and the first to be commercialized in the industry. In addition to Barco, DP also plans to launch a 12,000-lumen laser projector, which is expected to be launched in the fourth quarter of this year. The machine also has a resolution of 4096×2160, a contrast ratio of 2000:1, and an operating life of up to 20,000 hours. We can also see that in the face of the high brightness of the laser, it can perfectly cope with the current popular 3D technology, and can achieve brighter pictures and higher picture quality performance.
In addition, brands including Panasonic and Sony have also launched their green laser pointer projector products. Although the brightness is far less than Barco’s 60,000 lumens products, they also solve the problem of applying laser technology to projectors. In future large-scale exhibitions and commercial cinemas, we will also see more and more applications of laser technology.
New technology represents a new future. The emergence of new light source technology has changed the problem of the homogeneity of traditional projectors in the past, and has ushered in new development opportunities for the entire projector market. In particular, portable projectors for the mass consumer market or engineering projectors for the high-end market are generally favored by the industry. We also look forward to the future projector market to bring us more good products.
