Introduction

Integrating Runco's award-winning controller/processor technology for flawless images from any source, the Q-750i sets new standards in projection with Runco's game-changing InfiniLight™ LED lampless technology, Personal Color Equalizer and Runco SmartColor.

Runco's revolutionary QuantumColor™ projectors pair energy-saving LED technology with proprietary Runco engineering to create unsurpassed performance and unrivaled customization. The Runco QuantumColor Q-750i maximizes the benefits of Runco's new InfiniLight™ lampless LED illumination technology to provide an infinite light source that creates an energy-efficient projector with the widest color gamut ever available in home theater projection.

But simply creating a projector platform with lampless technology and the largest color gamut isn't enough. Harnessing its incredible color options, Runco introduces its revolutionary new Personal Color Equalizer™, which allows color adjustment that includes those exactly defined by the cinematographer and the color preferences of each individual viewer for each source. Proprietary Runco Smart Color (RSC™) provides a hue compensation curve and gamut mapping that allows for lifelike, accurate flesh tones while increasing color saturation, without sacrificing the purity of other colors.

In addition to Runco's proprietary InfiniLight, Personal Color Equalizer and Runco Smart Color, Runco the Q-750i can also be paired with Runco’s award-winning CineWide™ and CineWide with AutoScope™ technology. CineWide provides uncompromised widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the CinemaScope™ 2:35:1 format. It maintains constant vertical height on the screen just as in a movie theater. When a viewer transitions from 1.78:1 (16:9) program material to superwide 2.35:1, the image simply gets wider while full screen height is maintained, eliminating useless black bars on the top and bottom of the screen.

Runco CineWide is achieved through Runco's ingenious combination of software, electronics and precision anamorphic optics. With Runco CineWide, the projection system is able to use the full pixel array, thereby producing a 2.35:1 image with enhanced resolution and increased brightness. No resolution or image area is lost to those black bars that contain no picture information. CineWide with AutoScope provides a motorized, remote-controlled anamorphic lens mechanism.

Note

CineWide requires the use of a 2.35:1 or similar aspect ratio superwide

format screen.

Discrete IR and RS-232 control make custom installation seamless, while discrete source and aspect ratio selection accommodate any automation control system.
