Sharp XV-Z10000U Product Sheet

2600:1 High Contrast and Black Reproduction
DMD™ is a reflective device which can prevent light from coming through by controlling mirror angles. Making good use of this DMD™ feature plus employing a thoroughly developed optical engine, the XV-Z10000U/E provides sharper blacks in black parts and a higher contrast ratio of 2600:1. Real blacks and clearly reproduced subtle colours provide impressively beautiful pictures.
With the development of an advanced optical engine including Primary Colour Wheels, the XV-Z10000U/E provides high-grade colour reproduction.

Three Primary Colour Wheel (CW)
Current DLP™ projectors employ a 4-colour (RGB and white) colour wheel in order to increase white luminance and picture brightness. However, this causes a debasement of colour balance
by enhancing other colours to reach a bright white level and a deterioration of black level because of white light straying onto DMD™ chips. The XV-Z10000U/E uses a 3-Colour CW with only red, green and blue primary colours, achieving high reproduction of pure colours and high-contrast pictures.
Optimization of the Optical Engine
From the onset of XV-Z10000U/E development, all optical parts have been thoroughly analyzed and experimented on in order to search for higher contrast ratio. This brings anti-reflective coating for every optical part, optimization of light insertion into DMD™ pixels, and a shutter in front of the projection lens. As a result, backlight from diffused reflection in the optical engine and light leaking from light reflection from objects other than DMD™ mirrors have been dramatically reduced to achieve higher contrast ratio.
World’s First 6x* Speed Engine
Single DLP™ projectors employ a time sequential CW system in which RGB images projected on the screen sequentially are mixed and recognized as one image from the afterimage effects on human eyes. But this causes a phenomenon called “Colour Breaking”. And since projection time for each colour is relatively long with the 1x and 2x engine, remaining afterimages appear on the image for some time like a RGB rainbow. For a theatre projector, this is a major weak point because mainly moving images are projected. With the world's first use of a 6x* Speed Colour Wheel in front DLP™ projectors, the XV-Z10000U/E achieves a projection time 1/6 that of a 1x engine and improves colour breaking up to a degree virtually invisible.
