16-Sep-04

Optoma Technology, Inc. unveiled the native 576P, 1024 x 576 1.78:1 (16:9) resolution Home Theater Projector at CEDIA. The H57 combines DarkChip2 DLP technology with a four-speed, six-segment color wheel, and uses the advanced scaling capabilities of the Pixelworks 463 scaler. This combination of advanced technologies results in native 576p resolution, rich dark levels with contrast ratio of 2500:1, breathtakingly vivid colors, and a native 1.78:1 (16:9) aspect ratio-perfect for viewing widescreen materials in their natural state. The H57 projector is compatible with every digital and analog source. It has Composite Video, S-Video, VGA, DVI-I HDCP, Component Video (480i/p, 720p, and 1080i) inputs. Up to three component video inputs can be connected simultaneously to this projector. HDMI output device can be connected to H57 through a bundled HDMI to DVI adaptor. The Optoma H57 Home Theater Projector also employs some of the most revolutionary engineering on the market, such as its Shield Design casing. This advanced casing technology prevents unwanted light emissions and, at the same time, enables near silent operation. The secret to this technology lies in the strategic use of baffles within the cooling tunnel to reduce air flow speed and achieves a whisper quiet, 28dB noise level. Furthermore, a patent pending pressure sensor design ensures its long term operational reliability even in high altitude regions in this country. Some features include:--Superior 2500:1 contrast ratio for a film-like theater effect and greater depth of field--High-definition (576P native) DarkChip2 DLP technology from Texas Instruments--Shield Design casing for reduced light leakage and whisper quiet, 28dB performance--Industry-leading video processing and proprietary, independently adjustable color matrix--Convenient DVI-HDCP, Component, Composite, S-Video inputs, and a VGA input For more information about Optoma visit http://www.optoma.com/.
