Introduction

The LightStyle™ Series LS-10d Home Theater Projector and DHD Controller encompasses Runco’s award-winning three-chip performance in an elegant, sleek package. Feature rich, including advanced connectivity and the latest-generation video processing, the LS-10d provides style and elegance to the most exacting custom theaters.

Impressive, unique and unlike single-chip DLP™ implementations, no color wheel is used in the LS-10d. Instead, it harnesses the power of three advanced 16:9 DMD’s™ and

12-degree mirror tilt for unsurpassed black level performance. The impressive brightness is further bolstered by the improved contrast capabilities of the stylish LS-10d. This reduces mechanical complexity and compromises to color spectrum purity.

The LS-10d comes with an external, all-digital signal processor/controller/scaler featuring advanced ViVix IV™ video processing, superb scaling (up to 1080p) and aspect ratio control. The LS-10d is enhanced further by significant horizontal and vertical lens shift capability for maximum installation flexibility.

The LS-10d’s 16:9 native aspect ratio DMD array makes it ideal for widescreen viewing, while its 3-chip, 1920 x 1080 native resolution produces crisp, crystal clear high-definition images with richly saturated colors, deep black levels and natural, highly refined detail.

The LS-10d features Runco’s revolutionary new Personal Color Equalizer™ (PCE), which allows color adjustment that includes those exactly defined by the cinematographer and the color preferences of each individual viewer for each source.

In addition to Runco's proprietary Personal Color Equalizer, the LS-10d can also be paired with Runco’s new CineGlide™ lens solution. Through an ingenious combination of software, electronics and precision anamorphic optics, CineGlide provides uncompromised widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope” 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.

Note

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

format screen.

Rounding out this projector’s impressive feature set are discrete input source, aspect ratio and power on/off control (via serial commands or IR codes), for seamless integration with automation control systems.
