Panasonic, the world’s leading manufacturer of consumer electronics has announced plans to bring its latest range of high-precision 0.7Ë DLPâ„¢ chip projectors to the Middle East during Gitex Dubai 2005.
The PT-D3500 range features a high-precision, single-chip DLPâ„¢ system rendering high image quality and outstanding brightness of 3,500 lumens ANSI. Panasonic is also introducing the ultra-lightweight: 2.1 kg PT-LB20 series with daylight view technology. With simple, user-friendly settings and quick operation, the PT-LB20 series is ideal for business, sales and mobile presentations.
“The high performance of the PT-D3500 makes it ideal for a wide variety of applications with long operating hours from classrooms, meeting rooms, stores and showrooms, to restaurants and public advertising. The new range offers 1,600:1 contrast ratio for highly uniform brightness and colour. On the other hand, the main features of the PT-LB20 are day view technology, easy operation and portability, with excellent performance†said Shigetomi Hitoshi, Manager System solutions, Panasonic Marketing Middle East FZ LLC
The DLPâ„¢ system combines high image quality with solid reliability and easy maintenance. The main functions of the projector include a wide variety of terminals and wired LAN capability. Housed in a compact body, the PT-D3500 is a highly advanced system projector with little maintenance, low cost, and a high degree of flexibility. Moreover its compact dust-free design helps ensure that it will continue to deliver crisp, sharp, high-resolution images over an extended service life.
The PT-D3500’s lens-center design provides flexible system layout, eliminating the need for any special considerations when planning the installation site. It can also be rotated vertically. This means users can install it at any up-and-down angle to accommodate different installation conditions.
When the PT-D3500 is connected to a wired LAN system, users can operate it remotely and check its status using a Web browser on a network PC. The projector also automatically sends an e-mail message to notify the operator when the operating condition changes or a lamp needs to be replaced, which suits it to a variety of systems and applications.
Other valuable features include direct power off, quiet operation, and a host of security features (password, operation key lock, Kensington lock and security chain opening).
The PT-LB20 has an easy 2 second speed start via a one-touch auto setup with digital keystone correction. The innovative daylight view technology greatly improves image performance in brightly lit places. In fact, the 2000-lumens brightness of the PT-LB20 series achieves a level of image performance that equals many 3000-lumen projectors. In Motion Streaming mode, moving-image files can be sent completely wireless, together with audio, from the hard disk of a PC, eliminating the need to connect an external video source. Users need to simply to set up the PC somewhere in the room and immediately start into an effective presentation using both moving images and sound.
The PT-LB20NTEA also offers high-speed data transfer via the IEEE 802.11b/g-compliant wireless LAN function.
