Christie’s Roadie, the world’s first purpose-built multi-media projector for large audiences projects with true SXGA 1280 x 1024 resolution and it can do so at 12000 ANSI lumens, making the S12 the most powerful purpose-built projector in its class, available on the market today.

The Roadie S12 utilizes the advanced image processing technology developed for the Roadster series, to offer a level of image quality that is unrivaled by today’s projection systems. Better still by taking advantage of the S12’s true digital capabilities you can project HDTV and DTV images as they were intended.

In designing the S12 we have taken full advantage of our relationship with our parent company Ushio, a leading manufacturer in lamp technology and design. The S12 combines such stunning image rendition, brightness and sharpness of details, yet the S12

utilizes the same 1.9 kW Ushio Xenon short-arc illumination system

as used by our X10 projector.

In keeping with the Roadie series edict of offering purpose-built

projectors for large audience applications, the S12 utilizes

Christie’s unique Intelligent Lens System (ILS™). The ILS™ allows lens position to be automatically recalled during channel switching for up to 100 sources. Other features include built-in

stackability and a full suite of fixed and zoom lenses.
