Introduction

The Planar PD8130/PD8150 has been engineered for the top quality 1080p picture performance and installation flexibility heretofore associated with projectors costing far more.

The PD8130/PD8150 Full-HD (1920 x 1080) native resolution DLP™ light engine features state-of-the-art technology for bright, pristine, high-definition images at today’s highest available resolution.

The PD8130/PD8150 is equipped with a precision optics package offering zoom, focus and lens shift controls and a throw range of 1.85:1 to 2.40:1. For installations requiring shorter throw distances, the PD8130/PD8150 is optionally available with a lens that offers a throw range of 1.56:1 to 1.86:1.

The PD8130/PD8150 has been engineered to comply with Imaging Science Foundation™ (ISF) standards for maximum home theater image quality. Planar's sophisticated parameters for white balance and color gamut control have also been implemented for precise balance of gray scale and color. The PD8130/PD8150 incorporates proprietary de-interlacing technology that provides exceptional scaling and film-to-video (3:2 pull-down) conversion for the most artifact-free images possible.

Discrete infrared (IR) and RS-232 control make custom installation seamless, while discrete power on/off and source selection accommodate any automation control system.

The PD8130/PD8150 offers these key features and benefits:

Native Resolution: 1920 x 1080 (16:9 Native Aspect Ratio)

DLP system using high-performance Digital Micromirror Device (DMD)

Customized color wheel produces wide dynamic range and rich grayscale

DynamicBlack™ provides for infinitely variable adjustment of the light path through the optics, enabling the perfect balance of black and white levels for any type of video source material

Picture in Picture function allows you to display two inputs on the screen at the same time

Two (2), HDMI 1.3 Inputs with High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)

HDTV Compatible

Additional Features of the PD8150:
