Digital Projection International proudly introduces the LIGHTNING 45-WUXGA 3D. These Pro Series II projectors employ the latest in dark metal, 3-chip DLP® technology, and include DPI's exceptional RapidRig™ staging and stacking hardware with integrated pitch, roll and yaw adjustments. When considered along with their 30,000 ANSI lumen brightness and 2000:1 contrast performance, the 45-WUXGA 3D is ideally suited for the most challenging staging and large-venue permanent installations in the world.

In addition to the active 3D capability, the LIGHTNING 3D models also include DP’s new FastFrame™ technology, a revolutionary combination of hardware and firmware that vastly reduces the artifacts and image blur typically associated with rapidly moving displayed content. The benefits of FastFrame™ are especially important for simulation environments such as commercial and military flight training, and other applications where maintaining the visual integrity of high-speed imagery is vital.

The LIGHTNING 45 WUXGA 3D projectors also incorporate DPI’s Hyper-Cooled lamp module, one of our CoolTek™ innovations. Engineered with a proprietary, directional-flow reflector mask and radial heat exchanger, the Hyper-Cooled module dramatically improves projector thermal characteristics and extends reflector life and lumen maintenance. In turn, these operating benefits provide a significant reduction to the long-term cost of ownership, while also enhancing component reliability.

Other key benefits of the LIGHTNING 45 WUXGA 3D products include:

• High Bandwidth input >120Hz active stereoscopic DVI with no need for frame doubling. This capability extends the dynamic range up to 16 bit for improved contrast and color gamut.

• Dual Flash Processing™(DFP) – Supports users wishing to distribute 3D content via more traditional, 60 Hz formats with the option to frame-double their sources within the projector, via DFP. When this option is selected, the input signal, having been processed and if necessary re-sized to map to the native resolution of the projector, will also be frame-doubled to 120 Hz, and the doubled frames inter leaved. This produces imagery with the low flicker characteristics of a native 120 Hz source, but without the infrastructure costs associated with distributing and switching ultra-high bandwidth signals.

• Projector electronics which provide an interface to drive an infrared transmitter to synchronize switching glasses with active displayed frames. The user can elect either to pass through an external synch pulse, or to use the reference generated internally by the projector. Adjustments are provided to accommodate the phase
and dead time characteristics of different switching glasses.

• FastFrame™ technology, a revolutionary combination of hardware and firmware that provides user adjustments to vastly reduce the artifacts and image blur typIcally associated with rapidly moving display content.

• DP’s NextGen electronics with class leading video de-interlacing. SD and HD sources are processed using auto 3:2 and 2:2 extraction.

• Minimal video delay from input to screen - as low as 1 frame, depending on source.

• Eight user-selectable inputs including HDCP compliant DVI, plus SD/HD-SDI as standard.

• High bandwidth DVI inputs offer Single, Twin, Dual & Dual Twin DVI connectivity.

• ColorMax™ calibration capabilities, including enhanced seven-point color correction for broader color space and accurate color alignment.

• DP’s CoolTek™ engineering, which delivers the highest lumen performance with the lowest thermal (BTU) and noise level (dB) output.

•  Intelligent Lens Mount (ILM) - provides the ability for the user to program up to 10 distinct presets for lens zoom, focus and shift.  The ILM presets can be assigned and automatically recalled, by source and input.
