Innovative high-performance 3D
When you want high-performance 3D
displays, think Christie Mirage M Series
The Christie Mirage M Series is a high-performance,
active stereo projector range that provides advanced
3D performance with reduced overall operational costs.
Easy to set-up and configure, they're compact, yet both
PIONEERS IN 3D TECHNOLOGY
powerful and flexible in performance.
The most compact 3-chip DLP
their class, this series of six models delivers crisp, detailed
images with excellent color and brightness. The Christie
Mirage M Series delivers visually stunning 3D for home
theater and entertainment, museums and education,
scientific research, manufacturing, oil and gas exploration
and anything in between.
Offering complete compatibility with today’s 3D home
entertainment requirements, the Christie Mirage M Series is
ready for Blu-ray 3D™ video, PS3 and other gaming consoles
and meets the mandatory 3D spec for HDMI v1.4a.
Powered by dual image processing, the Christie Mirage
M Series displays full resolution at a native frame rate up
to 120Hz. Two standard Dual-link DVI input cards support
330MHz bandwidth for full resolution Dual Input 3D.
With dual P-VIP® Osram lamp design, extended lamp life up
to 3000 hours, up to 10,000:1 contrast and a refined user
interface with an accessible, customizable menu structure, the
series offers high-performance in a package that is easy to use.
There are three modes of 3D input for computer sources –
native 3D input, frame doubled 3D input and Dual Input 3D
– for maximum source compatibility and high-performance,
flicker-free operation without the need of a passive to active
converter. There are also three additional modes for noncomputer sources (optional input module may be required).
Combined with embedded Christie Twist™, additional
standard features, an expanded lens suite and industryleading Christie warranties, service and support, the
Christie Mirage M Series provides high-performance 3D.

Christie Mirage M Series in passive mode
Along with native frame rate compatibility from a single computer
channel, the Christie Mirage M Series comes standard with
support of Dual Input 3D that provides the ability to connect
it to most frame locked passive stereo 3D sources. Optionally,
using passive glasses and a special 3D filter that goes into the
light path, the Christie Mirage M Series creates stunning circular
or linear 3D imagery from a single projector.
Christie Mirage M Series in active mode
The full 120Hz native frame rate active stereo Christie Mirage
M Series projector is a far superior 3D projection solution.
Powered by dual image processing, the Christie Mirage M Series
supports full resolution at 330MHz with no bandwidth issues.
Users can utilize active LCD shutter glasses that alternate left
eye/right eye display in synchronization with the refresh rate of
the projector for stunning, flicker-free active stereo using the
latest in lightweight active stereo glasses.
¹ Some features may not be functional on initial product shipments,
but will be enabled via software upgrade when available.

Active single projector versus stacked dual projectors
Single active 3D projection eliminates the need to stack, align and color match projectors and
continually monitor and match brightness of two projectors for consistent left eye/right eye
display. Typically for comparable brightness, single active 3D projection will operate with less
noise, heat, physical space requirements and consumables along with fewer failure points and
overall lower power consumption.
Industry-leading warranty coverage
All Christie 3-chip DLP® projectors ship standard with a three-year warranty on parts and labor
(including light engine).

[ 3 ] Intelligent Lens System (ILS™)
The ILS™ automatically recognizes and
calibrates a lens when it is installed. Stepper
motor based encoding ensures that motor
drift does not occur, as typically found with
DC encoded motors, providing accurate and
repeatable recall of all lens offset, zoom and
focus positions.
[ 4 ] Expanded lens suite
[ 5 ] Dust sealed engine
Christie Mirage M Series projectors can operate
filter-free because of dust-sealed engines and
optics. Since dust and dirt cannot affect the
system and filters are not required, image quality
is maintained and maintenance costs are lower.
Removable side panels enable the addition
of optional coarse dust and fog juice filters for
projectors that are exposed to harsh environments.
With a full suite of fixed, short zoom and long
zoom lenses for SXGA+ and HD/WUXGA, this
expansive suite provides the broadest range
of lenses in this marketplace.

Carefully matching the pixel format of the projector
with that of the sources to be displayed will ensure
the best image quality and maximum impact.
Christie offers a variety of projectors that support
4:3, 16:9 and 16:10 aspect ratios for any application.
[ 6 ] Embedded Christie Twist
™
Standard in all Christie Mirage M Series models,
Christie Twist™ enables seamless white and black level
edge-blending of multiple curved images faster and
REINVENT THE STANDARDS
more easily than through traditional, manual methods.
Controlled by an easy-to-use GUI, users can expertly
control and edge-blend or stack multiple curved images.
As well, images can be warped to fit virtually any
dimension or shape display. Embedded Christie Twist
ensures that all Christie Mirage M Series projectors work
with value-added accessories, such as Christie Twist™
Pro, Christie AutoCal™ or Christie AutoStack™.

[ 7 ] Motorized yellow notch filter
The motorized yellow notch filter optically expands the color
gamut for richer greens and yellows. Since you lose some
brightness by improving the greens and yellows, this is a
channel-configurable option which enables you to decide
when it is needed. This filter, available on M Series HD models
only, is ideal when video is being displayed.
[ 7 ] LiteLOC
™
The LiteLOC™ feature automatically manages your display’s
brightness levels over time so that you can match the brightness of
a multiple projector system in tiled or blended arrays. This feedback
system continuously monitors lamp brightness, so that as the lamp
goes through its natural brightness decay, the system increases
the lamp power in order to maintain consistent brightness.
