Sony Unveils 4K Home Cinema Projector
Hello! I would like to call your attention that the link you provided does not lead to the Sony 4k home cinema projector or the Sony VPL-VW1000ES; instead it’s the link for the Asus dual boot device. 4k video means it has 4 times the pixel count of full high-definition or 1080p. It has a maximum resolution of 4096×2160 or 3840×2160, also known as Quad HD or in short QFHD.
The 4096×2160 has a pixel count of 8,847,360 – again more than four times the maximum resolution of the current HDTV which is 1920×1080. I would imagine that even classic movies would look better with this 4k projector. This device is also 3D capable but relies on active shutter glasses.
The device is priced at $25000.
Sony Unveils 4K Home Cinema Projector
The Sony 4K Home Theater ES Projector is really not for average consumers who can’t afford expensive devices. This new projector from Sony costs around $25,000. It features the equivalent technology and resolution available in high-end professional 4K movie theaters giving you a surprisingly immersive home theater experience. The 4K resolution is at 4096 x 2160 and this is more than 4 times 1080p.
Since it is integrated with VPL-VW1000ES that has a high resolution and brightness, you can actually use a 200-inch screen and still experience a surprisingly crisp and vivid picture in 2D. You can also use a 150-inch screen if you want to use 3D. It can be integrated into almost any home automation system with its VPL-VW1000ES using the bi-directional RS232 or even IP connections.
Its display uses the new SXRD™ Technology. It is also integrated with an IR 3D Sync Transmitter. So there’s really no need to connect an external transmitter because the built-in IR transmitter is enough to cover nearly all home theaters. The device has a 3-year limited warranty and this includes a special tech support hotline in case you need additional assistance.
You will enjoy watching your movie with a smooth and sharp motion produced by Sony’s Motionflow™ technology with 24p True Cinema and Dark Frame Insertion technologies.
