Christie has announced the launch of Eclipse G3, a 6DLP projector that offers HDR performance. The third generation of Christie Eclipse technology, Eclipse G3 will debut at CEDIA Expo, from September 3-6 at the Colorado Convention Center. It will be paired with home theatre projection screens from Seymour-Screen Excellence as part of a set-up valued at over $1m.
Christie says that Eclipse G3 is designed for applications that require immersive, true-to-life experience, including ultra-high-end home theatres, planetariums, and themed attractions.
Eclipse G3 boasts up to 20,000,000:1 sequential contrast ratio – 100 times Rec. 2100 contrast performance and colour gamut of ≈98% of the Rec. 2020 colour palette. Eclipse G3 supports up to 120Hz 2D and active 3D at up to 60Hz per eye at native 4K resolution.
Larry Paul, executive director, technology and custom solutions, Christie, said: “Eclipse G3 makes ‘video black’ a thing of the past. It can display true black without any residual light for the richest visual experience in fully light-controlled environments.”
At CEDIA Expo, in SR10, Christie will join Alcons Audio to demonstrate a CP4425-RGB pure laser cinema projector with VDR. VDR is a patented technology that enables Christie CineLife+ Series projectors to analyse incoming video frame in real time and compute and modify the output laser power as needed.
Attendees can also experience Christie LED solutions in the ASCENDO booth 4312. A four-by-nine tile array of MicroTiles LED in a 0.75mm pixel pitch will showcase the technology’s visual performance driven by 24-bit internal processing and support for 4K@120 Hz. A 163in diagonal 0.9mm pixel pitch Core Series III UHD LED video wall will also be on display. Attendees can also get a close look at static projectors, including an M 4K25-RGB pure laser projector, a 4K1600-JS Jazz Series 1DLP laser projector, and a 4K860-iS Inspire Series projector.
