NEC Solutions (America), Inc. is making large screen projection an affordable reality with the addition of two new Showcase Series home entertainment projectors. Ideal for consumers who want to bring the movie theater experience into their home, the HT410TM and HT510TM single-chip DLP projectors pack 1.78:1 (16:9) native resolution, HD display, intuitive user interface and professional grade reliability into a contemporary design for low-cost, larger-than-life entertainment. Under the Showcase Series umbrella, the HT410 and HT510 join four new residential plasma displays and the award-winning, HT1100 projector, famous for its 3500:1 contrast ratio. ìThe HT410 and HT510 projectors were created to seamlessly integrate into virtually any room in the home and to provide a selection for the home user in search of a simple and cost-effective alternative to other available display technologies,î explains Don Fasick, Projector Product Manager for the Visual Systems Division of NEC Solutions. ìThe new HT projectors function well in the family room, bonus room or as a dedicated home theater projector by delivering broad signal compatibility for uses beyond wide screen DVD movie-watching - such as high definition television, satellite and cable display, as well as gaming, digital pictures, computers and more. They offer a home entertainment solution that brings the large screen viewing available with front projection into the home.îHome entertainment users can achieve crystal clear, larger-than-life images thanks to the wide screen display of the HT410 (WVGA/854 x 480) and HT510 (1024 x 576). Built-in de-interlace video processing provides excellent fast motion picture display without image artifacts while HD signal compatibility ensures the same vibrant, dynamic experience as going to the movies. VORTEX Technology Plus further improves white balance, color accuracy and dynamic range for a crisp and vivid image. The new HT projectors provide a bright 1000 ANSI lumens and sharp 1200:1 contrast ratio for commanding video display in virtually any viewing environment. The new HT projectors offer portable entertainment that adapts to just about any room with a sub-seven pound contemporary design and new pearlescent white chassis. Built-in wall color correction preset selections provide adaptive color tone correction when projecting onto non-white screen material or other display areas, such as a garage door for neighborhood movie night or a wall in a basement. The new HT projectors function well in home settings with manual vertical lens shift and a rear adjustable tilt foot mechanism to further adjust projector placement and alignment to the screen, along with ëAutosenseí one-touch image optimization. Additionally, a full-function back-lit remote allows for easy navigation at the touch of a button. NECís HT410 and HT510 provide rock-solid, professional grade reliability and performance based on decades of engineering expertise. The projectors incorporate Eco-Mode technology to extend lamp life up to 50 percent and are backed by NECís unsurpassed product reliability and service so users can feel confident about their investment while enjoying the benefits of theater-sized images in their home. The HT410 and HT510 are available for an estimated street price of $1,495 and $1,995 respectively. The HT410 will begin shipping in October 2004 and the HT510 in November 2004.
