As 3D continues to be implemented in new audio visual equipment, we thought it was important to warn our customers about 3D Ready projectors and television 3D broadcast.
Indeed there are a number of 3D Ready projectors now available and customers would be forgiven for believing that these projectors would be great to watch 3D television with. Unfortunately none of the 3D Ready DLP projectors are currently compatible with 3D broadcast from SKY or other TV broadcasters. Although DLP are working on this, a solution is only likely to be available towards the end of this year or early next year.
So what are these projectors good for?
Primarily they are targeted at education and medical uses where compatible 3D material is available, as well as the gaming community as they are compatible with 3D computer games.
Also we shouldn’t forget that they are perfectly capable of displaying standard content like any other projector!
We will of course keep you updated on any development regarding 3D projectors and TV broadcast, in the meantime please contact us if you have any questions.

NEC have joined the 3D race as they announced the release of three 3D ready projectors.
The NP115 and NP210 models have been updated so they will now be able to display 3D content. This obviously only applies to new stock and older projectors will not be able to display 3D.
The NP216 will be released in June 2010 and will be 3D ready as well as featuring 2500 lumens, XGA resolution and up to 5000 hours lamp life.
NEC said:
The DLP Link technology with a refresh rate of 120Hz allows 3D images to be projected with the aid of a single projector and active glasses. Neither are special screens and filters required nor an emitter to synchronise the glasses. This inexpensive 3D projection system will benefit users in many areas like for example education, engineering, architecture and design.
The NP115, NP210 and NP216 feature low power consumption which can be reduced even further using the Eco mode. A carbon savings meter calculates the amount of CO2 saved as a result, encouraging users to switch to energy-saving operation. The Eco mode operation also increases lamp life to up to 5,000 hours. This ensures an excellent price/performance ratio and low total cost of ownership. Users who only plan to use three-dimensional material at a later point in time can be assured of a future-proof investment with these projectors.
The XGA models NP210 and NP216 are TCO-certified. This independent third party certificate proves that they meet stringent environmental and ergonomic standards and underlines NEC Display Solutions’ commitment to eco-friendly technology leadership embodied in its Green Vision initiative. Both projectors feature an integrated RJ45 interface, facilitating rapid and simple LAN connectivity.
Check our website at www.purple-cat.co.uk to find out more about the NEC projectors or call us on 01924 278464 for advice.
