Optoma Technology DS322 Overview

The SVGA-resolution (800 x 600) Optoma DS322 DLP Multimedia Projector is a portable corporate, educational or home theater projector with advanced features and an entry level price tag.

It can sync up with more than dozens of PC and Macintosh resolutions, offering the kind of flexibility you need when you don't know where and with what kind of computer you'll be using the projector next.

The DS322 is a citizen of the world. It's auto-switching 100 - 240 Volt 50 / 60Hz power supply allows the projector to work in almost any country with electricity. Its OSD (on-screen display) offers a choice of 23 languages and its ability to project programming in the NTSC, PAL and SECAM standards means it'll work in just about any country that has television.

No matter where it is, the DS322 projects a bright, vivid (2,600 lumens) and sharp (2,500:1 contrast ratio) image thanks to its Texas Instruments 0.55" Digital Light Processor Digital Micromirror Device (DLP DMD). TI's DLP panels form images from not only the primary colors red, green and blue, but also their complements, cyan, magenta and yellow. The result is what many authorities agree is the finest color reproduction possible.

With the DS322, saving money doesn't end with the purchase; it's an ongoing process. Use it in Standard mode instead of Bright mode and energy use is about 10 percent less while lamp life increases from an estimated 5,000 hours to 6,000 hours. And with its DLP DMD image engine there are no filters that have to be periodically cleaned and replaced.

When you're ready to go you can pack up for the next assignment immediately, thanks to its rapid on / off feature. But don't be afraid to keep it in Standby mode in between classes or presentations. In Standby mode the DS322 uses only a single watt.

At only 5.0 lb the DS322 is likely to log some miles in your carry-on. To ensure those flights are round trip, a Kensington slot and security bar are included in the design. Call it flight insurance or simply peace of mind. In addition to physical security measures, password protection is built in to prevent deliberate or accidental changes to the projector's settings.

2,600 ANSI Lumens and a 2,500:1 Contrast Ratio with SVGA Resolution
That's projection power to spare for medium to large sized living rooms, conference rooms and lecture halls even when ambient light can't be totally controlled. SVGA (800 x 600) as well as UXGA resolution (1,600 x 1,200) means the DS322 makes a great entertainment projector as well as a corporate or educational device.
Texas Instruments 0.55" DLP DMD Panel with BrilliantColor
BrilliantColor increases color accuracy while it increases color brightness by up to 50 percent over panels without it. And in addition to red, green and blue, its spectrum includes their complements: cyan, magenta and yellow. What's more, DLP projectors require no filters that have to be cleaned and replaced.
Ready for Worldwide Use
In addition to NTSC (the North American standard) this projector can display video signals in the PAL and SECAM systems. It can also handle SDTV (480i), EDTV (480p), and HDTV (720p, 1080i and 1080p). It's got an auto switching 100 - 240 V AC 50 / 60 Hz power supply and a 23-language OSD (on-screen display).
Energy Saving Features Save Money and the Environment
In Bright mode lamp life is estimated at 5,000 hours and noise level is a whisper-quiet 29dB. Switch to Standard mode and estimated lamp life climbs to 6,000 hours while fan noise drops to 27dB. Overall power consumption also drops. In Standby mode the projector draws only a single watt.
Robust Security is Built-in
You can prevent unauthorized use of the projector by password protecting it. Physical security is provided by a slot for an optional Kensington lock, as well as a security bar.
Portable
At only 5.0 lb, with an included carrying case, the DS322 is eminently portable.
