(DMD) design, the image modulator at the

Display. Digital Projection selected this

imaging technology back in 1989, after our extensive analysis

demonstrated the DMD’s potential to accurately reflect individual

pixels of light. Since then, Digital Projection engineers have

worked closely with Texas Instruments, solving the challenges of

Perfectly suited for staging, entertainment, business, education,
simulation, religion, command and control and broadcast
environments, no other imaging technology approaches the
visual beauty and operational simplicity of projectors by Digital
Projection.

At over 9,000 ANSI lumens and XGA native resolution, the
LIGHTNING 10gv produces dazzling projected images for any
application. The astonishing brightness of the projector is comple­mented by a palate of more than 1 billion colors, absolute
grayscale tracking and luminance uniformity greater than 90%.
The on-screen results are engaging video, HDTV and computer
imagery with an inherent “film-like” appeal.

The LIGHTNING10gvdelivers these outstanding performance benefits:

• Super-high-brightness of 9,000 (±10%) ANSI lumens.

• 450:1 On to Off Contrast, 250:1 ANSI Contrast produces
deep blacks and rich detail (±10%).

• Greater than 90% luminance uniformity for visually “flat”
imagery with no hot-spots.

• Source compatibility up to 1280 x 1024 pixels provides
broad computer display flexibility.

• XGA native resolution of 1024 x 768 for exceptional on­screen detail.

• Dynamic HDTV compatibility including 1080i/24p, 720p and
480p for advanced standards display.

• Multi-format serial digital input.

• State of the art composite video decoding technology by
Faroudja Laboratories.

• Advanced signal processing and image resizing (formerly
developed by a division of Cintel International which was
acquired by Digital Projection in August 2000).

• Solid state digital stability and factory preset convergence
for fast and simple alignment.

• Motorized and programmable lens mount with horizontal
and vertical shift provides broad installation agility.

• Integrated light shutter, handles, stacking and rigging
points.

Design flexibility in, and complexity out…

To manage the mechanical complexities of diverse applications,
Digital Projection developed a motorized lens mount, capable of
providing extensive vertical and horizontal lens shift. When com­bined with our broad and flexible range of lens options and system
accessories, the LIGHTNING 10gv can be mechanically integrated
to solve nearly any application challenge.

The simplicity of our design is further exemplified by the remarkable
alignment stability of POWER, THUNDER, LIGHTNING & HIGHlite
Displays. Factory preset convergence, exacting and stable color
reproduction, digitally accurate image uniformity and user friendly
on-screen menus ensure simple and confident setup and minimal
maintenance, for even the most challenging large-screen applica­tions.

Seeing is Believing…

Specifications alone cannot tell the full story. The true beauty of
a LIGHTNING Display comes to light when it is performing in your
application. Ask us your toughest questions, study our customer
service philosophy and experience a POWER, THUNDER, LIGHT-
NING or HIGHlite Display for yourself. From our beautiful imagery,
installation flexibility and customer service, you too will agree…at
Digital Projection, our only interest is your image.
