X1 Ultimate processor

"X1 Ultimate for projector" is a super
high performance picture
processor based on BRAVIA's flagship
processor, X1 Ultimate

Wide-range laser control

High-end planetariums and simulators
are required to dim the laser as low as
possible to reproduce a deep-black
night sky. The VPL-GTZ380 uses PWM
(Pulse Width Modulation) laser control
to be able to dim the laser power
down to 10%.

Laser light Source

The VPL-GTZ380 has a brand new laser
light source design that includes an
additional red diode. This enables the
projector to achieve 100% DCI-P3
colour space without the need for
colour filtering resulting in no
brightness loss when using DCI-P3.

Dual 4K60P 3D

With 4K120P capability, the VPL­GTZ380 is capable of the Easy-on-the­eye dual 4K60P 3D active shutter
system, which gives 4K60P image to
each eye. With 10,000lm brightness,
the 3D brightness of the VPL-GTZ380 is

more than double that of the VPL­GTZ270 or 280.

Dimensions

Low transport delay

Transport delay is the time it takes for
the projector to display the images
received from sources. Having a low
transport delay is critical for simulation
and gaming applications. The VPL­GTZ380 achieves the same transport
delay as the VPL-GTZ280, which is used
in many simulators worldwide.

Smear reduction

In addition to 4K 120P high refresh rate
interface, the VPL-GTZ380 has black
insertion modes to reduce smear in fast
moving video. There are three modes,
25%, 41%, 50%, which are the same as
the ones of the VPL-GTZ280.

The VPL-GTZ380 comes with two HDMI
inputs and two Display Port 1.4 inputs.
Display Port 1.4 supports up to 4K 60P
RGB444 10-bit signal with a single cable
and up to 4K 120P RGB444 10-bit with
dual cables

Running quietly

The VPL-GTZ380 is one of the quietest
high brightness laser projectors on the
market, running at just 39dB. This is
achieved by using a liquid SXRD panel
cooling system and streamlined air flow
design, with large fans running slowly
and quietly in order to cool components
like the laser light source.

Sealed optics against dust

All optical components of the VPL­GTZ380 are sealed against dust,
removing the need for a dust filter and
therefore the inconvenience of regular
cleaning.

IR Output for NVG training

Some of the most advanced simulators
and training systems offer a night training
scenario using night vision googles (NVG).
NVGs can detect Infra-Red (IR) light that is
invisible to the human eye. The VPL­GTZ380 uses a dedicated LED light source
to output 1.5 times brighter IR light than
the VPL-GTZ280.
