Experiences beyond mere satisfaction.

There is a line of home theater projectors from a company as passionate about excellence as you are. It’s

as if your wish list somehow made it into our hands, where innovation, performance, and aordability

skillfully coexist. With 25 years of engineering prowess in specialty display markets, from medical to

commercial to industrial, Planar is pouring years of prociency into distinctive home theater projectors.

The result is an experience far beyond mere satisfaction. Rather, Planar provides the very means by

which all your senses will revel in wonder. Available exclusively through specialty home theater partners

worldwide, Planar’s projectors were designed with your exact needs in mind.

The revolutionary Planar Viper, PD8150 and PD8130 1080p projectors all oer

revolutionary Picture-in-picture (PIP) and Picture-by-picture (PBP) features. PIP reduces

the designated image area of the active source and places it on the screen next to the

PIP source. In addition to PIP, these Planar projectors also feature Split Screen features,

where two active sources are displayed in equal sizes next to each other. This special

mode allows two giant images on the same screen at the same time.
