ATLANTA, GA (August 21, 2009) - Digital Projection International’s TITAN Reference 1080p 3D has been selected as a CE Pro BEST Awards Finalist for 2009. DPI’s TITAN Reference 1080p 3D, the most efficient Active-3D enabled projector in its class, joins a short list of innovative consumer products recognized as finalists. CE Pro will be announcing the winners online at www.cepro.com on September 10, 2009. Additionally, CE Pro will be presenting the winners trophies at the CE Pro Headquarters Booth at CEDIA Expo (# 1119) at 4 p.m. on September 10th.

Delivering 4,000 – 6,000 lumens, depending on the lens selected, and an amazingly rich 5000:1 contrast, the TITAN Reference 1080p 3D pairs Texas Instruments’ 3-chip DLP color fidelity with DPI’s advanced 3D engineering. The TITAN Reference 1080p 3D relies on key technological innovations such as DPI’s Active-3D sideboard, FastFrame™ technology, and Dual Flash Processing™. DPI’s entire line of 3-chip, Active-3D enabled projectors includes the following benefits:

• 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. This is especially important when viewing sporting events or any other fast-moving entertainment content.
• Dual Flash Processing™ (DFP) – Enables distribution of 3D content via 60 Hz formats by providing the option to frame-double the signal within the projector. When this option is selected, the input signal, having been processed and re-sized to map to the native resolution of the projector, will also be frame-doubled to 120 Hz, and the doubled frames interleaved. 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.
• Active-3D sideboard containing a StraightShot™ high bandwidth input, which introduces less than one frame of latency.

Efficient design has been a cornerstone of DPI’s development philosophy for more than a decade and the TITAN Reference 1080p 3D stands as a prime example. The TITAN’s CoolTek™ engineering delivers the highest lumen performance with the lowest power consumption, thermal (BTU) and noise level (dBA) output in comparison with similar displays.

As Hollywood focuses its production efforts on creating a wide array of new 3D content, Digital Projection International is pioneering the technological advances needed to deliver it to home cinema enthusiasts worldwide. Digital Projection currently offers more than 20 3D-capable single-chip and 3-chip DLP displays. DPI will be showing the TITAN Reference 1080p 3D at CEDIA ‘09 (Booth #519) in Atlanta, Georgia from September 10-13, 2009.
