Complements Line of Large Venue LCD Projectors
with Two Units Deemed Brightest In Their Respective
Class
PLC-XF12N & PLC-EF12N
Offer Unparalleled Versatility & Flexibility
LAS VEGAS, November 13, 2000,
COMDEX, Booth #L5946 -Sanyo Fisher Company's
Presentation Technologies Division, whose parent company
is one of the world's largest manufacturer of LCD
projectors, today announced the PLC-XF12N and PLC-EF12N,
two large venue digital multimedia LCD projectors that
offer the brightest output in their respective class.
Both units utilize a 440-watt
DC metal halide lamp, three 1.8-inch polysilicon TFT LCD
panels and offer greater than 85 percent uniformity. The
PLC-XF12N offers an impressive 3300 ANSI lumens, XGA
(1024 x 768) native resolution and a contrast ratio of
500:1.The PLC-EF12N boasts 3600 ANSI lumens, an SXGA
native resolution of 1280 x 1024 and an incredible 600:1
contrast ratio.
Also, the $15,995 (MSRP)
PLC-XF12N and $23,995 (MSRP) PLC-EF12N can be twin
stacked, resulting in a near doubling of the image
brightness. The units feature a power lens shift
function, which easily aligns the images when twin
stacking with virtually no geometric distortion. In
addition, Sanyo's Polarized Beam Splitter (PBS) Optical
System further enhances the brightness levels of both
the PLC-XF12N and PLC-EF12N.
"Sanyo has long been a
technology leader in the projector market," noted
Robert Pearlman, marketing manager, Sanyo Computer
Peripheral Products. "Sanyo was the first to use a
direct digital PC interface with large venue projectors
and now we continue the tradition of features and
flexibility with extensive digital technology and the
ability to twin stack units for the ultimate in image
brightness."
Sanyo's large venue projectors
are equipped with a variety of advanced digital
features, including:
• |
|
Digital PC
Interface: Based on PanelLink™ technology, the
digital PC interface features a graphics
accelerator (PCI) board that easily installs into
a computer and results in true plug and play
compatibility. The PC interface eliminates noise,
ghosting, and complicated setup adjustments. |
• |
|
Digital Signal
Processing: Featuring pure digital processing
circuits, including digital gamma correction,
digital progressive scanning, and automatic color
correction, the PLC-XF12N and PLC-EF12N reproduce
vibrant images with accurate color and precise
details. |
• |
|
Digital
Progressive Scanning: Sanyo's ASIC Progressive
Scan circuit incorporates a proprietary algorithm
to double the vertical resolution of the picture,
resulting in near high definition image quality
from a standard signal. |
• |
|
Digital
Realized Interpolation Technology (DRIT): Sanyo's
revolutionary and proprietary technology, which
digitally reconstructs an image by either
compressing or expanding it to make it compatible
with the native resolution of the projector. |
Unlike other projectors in their class, the PLC-XF12N
and PLC-EF12N add the utmost in presentation versatility
with a myriad of video and PC inputs, including USB as
well as component inputs (Y, Cb, Cr). In addition, seven
optional lenses, including short and long-range, are
available, offering users complete flexibility for
tailor-made installation solutions.
Also, both units are plug and play ready and feature
digital zoom and panning, power zoom and focus,
user-friendly on-screen menus, and a laser pointer
remote control.
