George Walter Reflects on 25 Years of DLP Evolution

In the latest issue of Systems Contractor News, Digital Projection’s George Walter takes a deep dive into the 25-year journey of DLP technology—from its early days to its current cutting-edge capabilities.

From large three-chip systems to today’s advanced single-chip RGB Pure Laser projectors, DLP has seen remarkable progress. One of the most significant improvements: the elimination of the distracting “rainbow” effect, made possible by moving beyond the traditional color wheel configuration.

Here’s a snippet from George on that topic from the SCN cover story:

As technology advances, the latest evolution in DLP projection is the introduction of RGB pure laser technology in combination with single-chip DLP projectors. Traditional lamp-based projectors require color wheels or phosphor-based light sources to generate colors. While effective, these methods introduced certain limitations, such as potential color separation artifacts and mechanical noise.

With RGB pure laser projection, individual red, green, and blue lasers are used as direct light sources. As a result, RGB lasers produce more vivid, true-to-life colors, achieving nearly 100% of the Rec. 2020 color gamut—the widest color space available in consumer displays. Lasers have a much longer lifespan compared to traditional projection lamps, reducing maintenance costs and enhancing durability.

Without a spinning color wheel or high-wattage lamp, RGB laser projectors generate less heat and operate more quietly, making them ideal for home theaters and professional environments. And because RGB lasers don’t rely on color wheels, the risk of color separation artifacts is completely removed. That means no more rainbows.

Digital Projection Wins Prestigious “Best Product” Award from ProjectorCentral

It’s clear we’re developing the types of imaging solutions that our industry needs. At InfoComm 2025 we were honored with a Best in Show award from ProjectorCentral for our new TITAN Luma 35,000 4K-UHD 3-chip DLP projector. If you haven’t heard, this compact-no-compromise powerhouse is changing projection game by delivering the same astonishing brightness, clarity, and reliability for which the TITAN line is known, now in a chassis that’s 35% smaller and weighs just 125 pounds. The slim-down breaks new ground, allowing high-performance projection to be more easily integrated into commercial environments, especially those with space and weight limitations.

Despite the size reduction, the Luma 35,000 4K-UHD outputs impressive brightness of 31,500 ANSI lumens, along with 1600:1 contrast ratio and REC.709 color accuracy.

“We were most impressed with how Digital Projection’s TITAN Luma 35000 4K UHD was designed with a smaller and lighter chassis, while still boasting the power and precision of a 3-chip projector.”

–Jeremy Glowacki, ProjectorCentral editor-in-chief

Digital Projection Honors Military Service and Team Support

Digital Projection proudly supports team members who serve in the U.S. military, exemplified by Charles Alexander, Lead Service Engineer, who joined the company in 2003.

A U.S. Army Reservist and former U.S. Marine, Charles balances his military duties with his career at Digital Projection—a feat made possible through the company’s flexibility and commitment to service members.

When Charles was deployed to Germany last year for Defender 24, the largest U.S. Army training exercise in Europe, he saw firsthand how rare it is for reservists to have the kind of employer support he receives. Inspired, he nominated his supervisor, Mark Fuell, for the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) Patriot Award.

On June 27, 2025, ESGR’s Brad Prater presented the award to Mark at Digital Projection’s Kennesaw, GA headquarters, with Charles and colleagues in attendance. Mark humbly credited the entire team, reinforcing the company’s dedication to supporting those who serve.

Digital Projection is proud to uphold the values of the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) and remains committed to every team member—on and off the field.

At CEDIA Expo 2024, Digital Projection is adding a new member to its single-chip laser projector lineup. The forthcoming E-Vision 10000i RGB projector represents a major technological milestone, incorporating a host of cutting-edge technologies enabled by Texas Instruments’ all-new 0.8” HEP (high-efficiency pixel) DMD (digital micromirror device) chip.

Combined with Digital Projection’s Nexus electronics platform, the HEP DMD delivers the performance of full RGB laser technology in the smaller footprint of a laser phosphor projector. These cutting-edge, single-chip features also contribute to easier setup than conventional projectors that use three individual red, green and blue lasers.

The single-chip 4K design eliminates the artifacts and color separation commonly associated with projectors utilizing a conventional RGB color wheel, while achieving 4K+ resolution, 10,000 lumens, HDR without brightness decay, REC 2020 color space, and a contrast ratio between 2,400:1 and 3000:1.

“Our goal at Digital Projection is to continually push the performance of our projectors to deliver the most accurate, lifelike images possible. This mission is reflected in the E-Vision 10000i RGB laser projector. By incorporating a completely new chip design, we’ve been able to introduce to the custom integration community a host of groundbreaking performance features,” says Digital Projection VP of operations Mike Akridge. “In a league of its own, the E-Vision 10000i RGB sets a new standard of excellence and we’re thrilled to be able to preview it to integrators at CEDIA Expo.”

CEDIA Expo attendees can be the first to see this next-generation laser projector by visiting Digital Projection for a sneak peek at Booth #2108. Slated for launch later this year, the E-Vision 10000i RGB laser projector sets a new benchmark for imaging performance.

RGB Laser

Longest-lasting, lowest-maintenance projectors – with no phosphor wheel or other moving parts in the light path.

HDR

HDR (High Dynamic Range) defines the relationship between the video signal and the corresponding display performance (color, contrast, and brightness). It removes the limitations presented by older video signals and creates images with a broader range of colors and detail in both the bright and dark areas of the image. HDR-capable displays can read the updated format and show an image built from a wider gamut of color and brightness. HDR video simply contains more data to describe more steps in between the extremes. This means that bright objects and dark objects on the same screen can be shown to high degrees of brightness and darkness if the display supports it, with all the necessary steps in between described in the signal and not synthesized by the image processor.

Similarly, HDR-compatible displays can produce deeper and more vivid reds, greens, and blues, and show more color variation in between. Deep shadows aren’t simply black voids; more details can be seen in the darkness, while the picture stays dark. Bright shots aren’t simply sunny, vivid pictures; fine details in the brightest surfaces remain clear. Vivid objects aren’t simply saturated; more degrees of color can be seen.
