The latest 0.65 DLP

TM

chip

A key feature of the HC3800 is the latest Digital
Light Processing (DLPTM) chip incorporating a
new digital micromirror device (DMD) comprised of
densely embedded micromirrors. A smaller mirror
cavity diameter and narrower gaps between the
mirrors improve the aperture ratio of the innovative
chip, and reflective light diffusion is greatly reduced

Digital Micro-Mirror Device

by improving the wiring below the mirror section.
The mirrors are controlled to tilt repeatedly several
thousand times per second for smooth, true
reproduction of finely detailed images with no
noise or deterioration.

DMD Pixel Composition Map

High Brightness and High Contrast

A fixed iris provides both enhanced brightness and contrast for clear,
sharp images. Even in a relatively bright living room with the curtains
open, movies, sports and other programs from high-definition broadcasting
and Blu-ray sources are fully enjoyed in amazing high-definition.

1.5x Short-throw HD Zoom Lens

A newly developed short-throw zoom lens
is on the HC3800. The 4-cluster, 13-piece
all-glass lens provides excellent focusing
performance with 1.5x magnification of
high-definition images. Improvements in
image depth and the lens aperture make
it possible for deep blacks to be expressed.

High-output, Long-life Lamp & Quiet performance

The light source is a 230W high-output
lamp capable of a long estimated lifetime
of up to 5000 hours when operating in
low mode. We took fan and color wheel
shape into consideration to create a
low-noise fan specially designed for
cooling efficiency, ensuring impressively
low 25dBA quietness when operating in
low mode.

DDP3021 Full 10-bit Panel Driver

The built-in DDP3021 full 10-bit panel driver creates approximately
four times the gradation of 8-bit models, providing smooth expression
of dark gradation subtleties.

Blu-ray 24P direct output compatible

Capable of handling an output of 48p, twice the speed of cinema film
(24 frames per second), precise timing ensures true-to-life reproduction
with original, smooth movement in fast action scenes.

2-3 Pull-down

When converting 24 frames
per second into 60 frames
per second, and lining up
the second and third frames
in sequence, there is a
surplus third B frame, which
deteriorates movement
smoothness.

24P direct output

With 24p direct output,
24 frames per second is
converted to 48 frames
per second. This allows
sequential matching of two
frames at a time, thereby
enabling image reproduction
with original sequence
smoothness.

Richer, More True-to-life Colors

The HC3800 is equipped with a six-segment color wheel capable of
reproducing standard illumination at the color temperature of D65
(6.5 million colors). Signals from video sources are reproduced with
more true-to-life colors and richer gradation.

Color Management for Preferred Color Adjustment

Adjust images to your color preferences: R (red), G (green), B (blue),
C (cyan), M (magenta), and Y (yellow) can each be adjusted individually
with the built-in color management function.

Anamorphic Lens Compatibility - Choose Setting
Based on Media Played

The anamorphic lens compatibility of the HC3800 widens the projection
range of cinema-scope images. Mode 1 proves extended projection and
Mode 2 is for images other than cinema-scope that mirror the original
with the anamorphic lens attached.

TM

A new color processing algorithm and improvements in system-level
color signal quality reproduces many mid-range colors in video and
natural scenery for rich, vivid images.

Adjustable Overscan

For images such as those from DVD sources, the overscan ratio can be
varied between 90 and 100% in 1% intervals when HDMI components
are connected.

One-touch projection

The projector power switch and electric screen (roll down/retract)
control are linked, providing a convenient one-touch operation trigger.

Screen Distortion Correction

Correct screen distortion using the shape distortion correction function
to adjust up to ±15 steps (1 step approximately 1°) for vertical
distortion correction.
