Claims to be the most affordable full HD 3D model
Epson has released new EH-TW5200 projector priced at Rs. 98,699. The projector is currently Epson’s most affordable full HD 3D model and boasts of similar features to Epson’s top of the line home theatre models announced the press release.
The projector features full HD (1020P) resolution, and the same 480 hertz 3D drive. It also includes a horizontal keystone adjustment slider that lets users correct keystone distortions conveniently and quickly; as well as its HDMI’s MHL (Mobile High Definition Link) support that can mirror the displays of attached MHL compliant devices.
Epson’s proprietary 3LCD technology offers full-time colour projection with three separate LCD panels (Red, Green and Blue) thus ensuring the delivery of bright and accurate colours, and smooth projections of movies without colour breakup.
Active 3D projectors like the EH-TW5200 work by alternately displaying images with a slightly different perspective to each eye by synchronising with a pair of active 3D glasses to rapidly black out one eye while showing the other its respective image. The 480 hertz refers to the frame refresh rate of Epson’s active 3D projectors that is twice as fast as competing models. This high refresh rate minimises the “blackout time” between the projections of alternating 3D image frames that is the primary cause of dim-looking 3D images.
The release further emphasized that the Epson EH-TW5200 occupies less than half the space of Epson’s higher range 3D projectors and is also 65% smaller in volume. It also claimed that these compact dimentions also make the EH-TW5200 Epson’s smallest 3D projector model, and also one of the smallest in the industry as well.
