Information on the 3D Projection Function

•• To display 3D images, this projector requires:

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

1)Source devices that support the fiield sequential format

–For details on the supported signals, see the Compatibility Chart in this operation manual.

2)3D LCD shutter glasses that support the DLP® Link™* system

–Contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer for purchasing details.

* DLP® Link™ is a trademark of Texas Instruments.

•• The projected image may become dark when using the 3D projection function (with “DLP® Link™ ” set to “On”).

•• When “DLP® Link™” is set to “On”, the following functions may not work fully or may not be available at all.

– Keystone/Resize/Magnify

•• 3D formats except for the fiield sequential method, such as ones used for Blu-ray 3D or DVD prepackaged media, are not compatible with this projector. (As of November 2012)

•• If the power of your left and right eyes greatly differs and you primarily use one eye for viewing the images, the images will not appear in 3D.

In addition, images may be diffiicult to view in 3D or images may not be able to be viewed in 3D depending on the individual or the content being displayed.

The stereoscopic effect varies with the individual.

•• 3D viewing is possible within the range that the 3D LCD shutter glasses are able to receive light signals refllected by the screen. However, most 3D images are manufactured to be viewed from directly in front of the screen, so 3D viewing is recommended directly in front of the screen as much as possible.

–The range for receiving signals varies depending on the 3D LCD shutter glasses. For details, see the operation manual of your 3D LCD shutter glasses.

•• 3D images may not be able to be played back correctly on your computer.

Appendix

■■ How the 3D Projection Function (DLP Link™ ) Works

The 3D projection function of this projector is compatible with the DLP® Link™ system. To watch 3D images, you use a pair of 3D LCD shutter glasses that alternately display the projected images for the left and right eyes and are synchronized with a control (light) signal.

Shutter glasses control light signal*

*The control light signal is transmitted from the lens of the projector, reflected by the screen, and received by the light reception sensor on the 3D LCD shutter glasses. Therefore, the range of 3D viewing varies depending on the specifications of the 3D LCD shutter glasses (light signal receiving sensitivity).

For details, see the operation manual of your 3D LCD shutter glasses.
