The world’s first WUXGA LCOS projector
Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging, has again advanced the acclaimed REALiS Multimedia Projector line with the introduction of two new models that provide unprecedented performance and features along with cutting-edge technology. Responding to the rapidly expanding need for a widescreen, high-resolution projection solution that is also affordable, Canon engineered its top-of-the-line REALiS WUX10 Multimedia Projector to deliver clear, defined WUXGA-resolution (1920 x 1200) images. The world rapidly transitioning to high-resolution image display in every sector including HDTV, personal computers, DVDs and Web video, which raises the public’s image-quality expectations. For this reason, presentation professionals need high-resolution, widescreen, large-image display solutions that are affordable and compact. Canon’s new REALiS WUX10 Multimedia Projectors are breakthrough products that are totally manufactured by Canon and engineered to meet the demands of displaying high-resolution digital imagery.
Canon’s top-of-the-line REALiS WUX10 is the world’s first WUXGA-resolution widescreen Multimedia Projector using LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) technology. It delivers the highest resolution of any Canon projector and provides precise color reproduction and exceptional image quality. The WUX10 is the perfect solution for the increasing number of professional users displaying and/or creating widescreen visual content. The new Canon REALiS WUX10 Multimedia Projector includes such unique Canon user-friendly features as: Off and Go, which allows users to pack-up quickly after a presentation by simply unplugging the power cord while internal circuitry continues to run the fan and cool the projector; Auto Set-Up functions for focus, keystone, signal inputs and screen color-correction; and an RJ-45 Network Connection and a built-in network interface for centralized control and monitoring of multiple projector units (both projectors are also compatible with industry-standard controllers). The REALiS WUX10 supports 1080 video content and WUXGA 16:10 computer resolution. This projector’s significantly larger display area enables Macintosh and Windows users to project their computer’s entire screen in its true proportions, just as it appears on their widescreen desktop or laptop computer monitors.
The new REALiS Multimedia Projectors feature new LCOS reflective LCD panels which were developed by Canon. The projector incorporates a 0.71-inch WUXGA (1,920 x 1,200 pixels) panel, the world’s first LCOS panel of its size to achieve such a level of resolution. In addition, the new multimedia projector features Canon’s proprietary AISYS (Aspectual Illumination System) Optical Engine. AISYS equalizes the light from the projection lamp and maximizes the performance of the LCOS panels to achieve high brightness, excellent contrast, exceptional resolution and a more compact projector form factor. Rated at 3200 Lumens of brightness and with a contrast ratio of 1000:1, the AISYS-enhanced LCOS REALiS WUX10 Multimedia Projector can project full and precise display of photographs, intricate spreadsheets with small text, CAD drawings and full-motion HD or SD video. It also features newly developed Genuine Canon 1.5x Powered Zoom/Focus Lenses that deliver increased resolution and suppression of lens aberrations, and improved 10:0 lens offset, reducing the need for tilting and/or keystone correction. In addition, these lenses include Canon’s new lens coatings, which reduce both glare and ghosting. The REALiS WUX10 Multimedia Projector weighs 10.8 lbs.
REALiS projectors combine the brilliance and sharpness of innovative LCOS (Liquid Crystal On Silicon) technology with Canon’s proprietary AISYS light engine technology. The result is a unique set of advanced projectors that deliver exceptional image quality. Designed to meet the needs of users in corporate, educational, and specialized fields, the REALiS WUX10 contains all the technology needed for superior performance, as well as fast, easy, and quiet operation.
