Product Description
Description
Sony`s VPL-VW100 is the ultimate in home theater entertainment. This projector supports Full High Definition with three SXRD(TM) micro-display panels and 1080p input to illuminate your viewing experience.
With a contrast ratio up to 15,000:1 (with Advanced Iris on), guess where your friends and neighbors are watching the big game this year? Built on Sony`s SXRD(TM) technology, the VPL-VW100 1920 x 1080p projector is built from three micro display panels supporting a Full High Definition 1080 line resolution image. This technology ensures support of full HD resolution with a film-like image presented in accurate color rendition and high contrast ratio providing you with that “at home" theater experience you`ve always desired.
Providing the illumination is a Sony 400W Pure Xenon Lamp providing equal brightness output for each of the primary colors – red, green and blue, which are used to produce the trillions of colors that you as the viewer enjoy on the screen. The projector's Advanced Iris technology also helps to improve images by monitoring algorithms and adjusting the iris diameter so images in bright scenes are crisp and clear while black levels in dark scenes are deep and detailed. And forget the annoying loud projector sounds of the past; the VW100 is designed to remain ultra quiet while it removes heat at a noise spec of just 22dB.
Supports Full HD with three SXRD(TM) 1920 x 1080p Panels SXRD is a new display technology developed by the legendary television engineers at Sony to meet and exceed the demands of a High Definition image at its full 1080 line resolution. It is a 1920 x 1080p panel characterized by several key benefits – full HD resolution support, smooth film-like image with minimal screen door effects, fast response times (5ms rise and fall), high contrast ratios and accurate color rendition.
400W Pure Xenon Lamp A special 400W pure Xenon lamp provides equal brightness output levels for all three primary colors: red, green and blue, used to create the trillions of colors that can be delivered. Natural and accurate color is reproduced with bottomless whites and spectacular reds.
Advanced Iris The latest evolution of Sony`s own Advanced Iris function uses algorithms designed to analyze the histogram of each picture along with nonlinear amplification to dynamically adjust the iris for its optimum opening. The result is a stunningly high contrast ratio of up to 15,000:1. Images in bright scenes are crisp and clear and black levels in dark scenes are deep and detailed.
Ultra Quiet Fan An exclusive Sony-designed fan efficiently removes heat at a barely noticeable noise spec of 22dB. Obtrusive fan noise is virtually eliminated to allow for flexibility in room placement.
