The XGA-resolution (1024 x 768) ViewSonic PJD7383i Interactive XGA DLP Short Throw Projector with 3000 lumens brightness at a 2000:1 contrast ratio (3000:1 dynamic) is an excellent projector at a great price. And that's before you take into account the important extras you get with it.
For one thing, this is an ultra-short throw projector. A short throw lens, simply put, can project a larger picture at a shorter distance from the screen than a conventional lens can. They're ideal for smaller conference rooms, classrooms and living rooms. The PJD7383i can project a giant 81 inch (two meters) image at just 39 inches (one meter) from the screen.
But an ultra short throw projector like the PJD7383i is just as useful in large rooms. Its many benefits include optimizing available space, flexibility for intimate or large environments, more room for presenter and audience, shadow-free presentations, and no direct glare from the projector's light. The PJD7383i is also great for rear projection setups where space behind the screen may be at a premium.
Educators will appreciate the built-in interactive white board (IWB) function. The included interactive pen has the ability to turn most available surfaces, including greenboards and blackboards, into an interactive whiteboard.
By the way, have you priced 3D capable TV sets lately? Even at our low prices, they're still more expensive than standard TVs. The videophile's secret is that 3D-capable projectors are the low cost entry point to 3D TV. You'll still need 3D programming (off-air or 3D Blu-ray disc) and 3D glasses but your projector is already good to go.
The projector's 0.55 inch DMD DLP (Digital Micromirror Device Digital Light Processor) panel by Texas Instruments can take the credit for the stunning images the PJD7383i can project. It features an innovation TI calls BrilliantColor. Unlike other technologies such as LCD that use just three primary colors to produce the image, DLP Technology with BrilliantColor uses up to six separate colors. BrilliantColor not only improves color accuracy, it brightens secondary colors as well. This combination produces a new level of color performance that increases the brightness of the colors by up to 50 percent over DLP projectors without BrilliantColor for accurate, true-to-life images.
Those millions of microscopic mirrors operate so fast that they can project two images milliseconds apart, making 3D in your home and office a reality. You bring the 3D glasses and programming. Your PJD7383i is ready to bring you everything from fantastic scientific visualizations to stunning 3D movies. Of course your PJD7383i can do high definition at 720p and 1080i. And if the disc you're projecting supports it, it can do 24fps (frames per second) and 25fps for the true film-like look, in addition to the standard 30fps.
What's more, it can also deliver images from NTSC, NTSC M, PAL B, D, G, H, I, M, N and SECAM B, D, G, K, K1, and L video signals. Completing its international credentials is its 100 - 240 V AC auto switching, 50/60 Hz universal power supply.
Although your PJD7383i makes a fine home projector its RJ45 jack allows complete control of a whole fleet of them deployed across a corporation or campus.
