SHOWWX laser Pico Projector: Small Size, Big Big Image

While the actual Princess Leia’s famous “Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you’re my only hope.” holographic projection is still light years away from coming to fruition in some far galaxy, Earth’s own projection technology is constantly catching up. And another interesting development is the microvision SHOWWX laser pico projector – the world’s first pocket laser projector of its kind. The SHOWWX is small enough to fit right into your pouch or pocket, measuring mere 2.36” in width, 4.64” in length and half an inch in depth. Despite its small form factor, it can project a 10-Lumens bright 848 x 480 resolution image with 16:9 Widescreen aspect ratio. The image projected has 60Hz nominal refresh rate, less than 200% NTSC color gamut and 5,000:1 contrast ratio. The projection distance and the image’s diagonal size are directly proportional; a minimum projection distance of 6” produces a 6” image and it can be further increased up to 100” display or more by simple adjusting the projector’s distance. Here are the other quick features of the SHOWWX laser pico projector:

• Always in focus: eliminates the need to adjust focus – ever!
• Razor-sharp and very clear images on any virtually surface
• Rich and brilliant laser colors enlarge your photos, videos and presentations
• Plug-n-play compatibility for quick and easy operation
• Long lasting battery that operate 90-120 minutes on a single charge

The C3X Lumis Host projector achieves extraordinary picture quality through the partnership of the latest 0.95-inch 1080p DLP chipset from Texas Instruments, the precision optics of SIM2’s ALPHAPATH light engine, and DynamicBlack technology. No other projector can match the superb color depth, excellent contrast ratio (up to 35.000:1) and exceptional brightness (3000 ANSI Lumens) that the C3X Lumis Host is able to deliver.

It uses three distinct specialized components: a user adjustable iris, DynamicBlack technology, and a new dimmable lamp with the world-renowned technical expertise of SIM2’s R&D design team to achieve increased contrast and black level performance. This enhanced black level performance enables the C3X Lumis Host to produce images containing the maximum amount of detail possible in dark scenes without compromising black level or the excellent dynamic range available from DLP technology.

For ease of installation, a choice of three lens options is available, which allows for even greater flexibility in the positioning of the projector. Additionally, there’s a wide choice of control options available: IR, RS232 and IP addressable.

SIM2 will showcase this revolutionary product in SIM2’s booth 1L49 – Hall1 during the 2009 ISE Show in Amsterdam RAI, Netherlands.
