BRAVIA Engine

™ 2 BRAVIA Engine 2 fully digital video processor uses a collection of unique Sony

®

algorithms to significantly reduce noise, enhance overall image detail, and optimize contrast so
every scene produces sharp, vibrant, life-like images.

Advanced Iris 2 The Advanced Iris 2 function provides up to a 60,000:1 contrast ratio by optimizing

both dark and bright scenes to produce deep black levels with stunning details.

2

24p True Cinema™ 24p True Cinema technology provides a direct connection to 24p video

sources so you can avoid conversions and enjoy films at their intended 24 fps (frames per second).

x.v.Color™ x.v.Color technology takes HD color expression to new levels. When connected to

x.v.Color capable video sources, such as select Sony® camcorders, the VPL-VW70 can display nearly
twice as many (1.8x) viewable colors as the existing RGB color standard, resulting in more natural,
life-like images.

Deep Color By combining a 10

-

bit processor with 10-bit SXRD™ panels, the VPL-VW70 can create and

display 64 times the level of color expression of 8-bit projectors, resulting in smoother color
gradations and helping to avoid a “paint-by-numbers” look.

ARC

-F (All Range Crisp Focus) Lens A specially developed ARC

-

F (All Range Crisp Focus) lens takes

full advantage of the SXRD™ panels to deliver Full HD 1080p resolution with superior clarity and focus.

Noise reduction functions

The VPL

-

VW70 features noise reduction functions that analyze scenes in

real time to identify various types of noise and reduce unwanted artifacts, such as mosquito noise
and block noise, without compromising the video signal.

Panel Alignment function

A Panel Alignment function enables pixel alignment to within 1/10th of a

pixel , making it possible to shift the entire picture or specific zones to adjust for color gaps and
produce a brighter, clearer, and more detailed picture.

measuring brightness, specifications will vary among manufactures.

4. When used with supporting video sources such as select Sony
camcorders.

5. Pixel convergence to 1/10th inch is calculated as ±2.0 dot by 0.1 dot
pitch. Depending on the adjustments made, the number of display
pixels may decrease. Also, colors may become uneven or the
resolution may change

6. BRAVIA Sync™ works with select Sony®
