Bright Images
High light efficiency and excellent colour
reproduction
3LCD projectors separate white light from the projection
lamp into red, green and blue primary colours. Each colour
is shone through individual LCD panels (made of high-tem-
perature polysilicon, known as HTPS) that give definition and
movement to the projected image.
Light efficiency is excellent because the three primary colours
are projected the whole time the projector is on. This ensures
that users view an image that is both bright and sharp.
3LCD technology is designed to project bright, clear and vivid
images. High light efficiency means the projector generates
less heat and costs less to run.
With a separate LCD Panel for each primary colour, you get bright, natural images that are easy on the eyes.
Natural Colour Reproduction
True expression of colour and smooth
gradation in dark areas
With 3LCD technology, the three primary colours of red, green
and blue are carefully controlled and recombined to give
accurate colour reproduction.
This is possible because 3LCD technology allows true
expression of intermediate colours so that viewers can enjoy
life-like and accurate reproduction of dark and shadowed
areas.
3LCD projector colour reproduction range is wide, and
primary colours are faithfully reproduced. Superior gray scale
handling in dark areas enables more natural gradation.
Vivid images
Each of the primary colours are reproduced using dedicated
LCD panels, hence 3LCD projectors show continuous images
that do not suffer from colour breakup.
Colour break-up is a phenomenon sometimes associated with
single-chip colour sequential projection systems. It’s known as
the “rainbow effect”, where moving images blur and separate
into its three component colours around the edges.
With 3LCD technology, you get superb reproduction of
moving images.
