BenQ Ships Best-in-Class High-Contrast-Ratio Home Cinema Projector; PE8720's 10000:1 Contrast Ratio, Proprietary Advanced Continuous Electronic IRIS and Senseye Technology Deliver an Exceptional Home Cinematic Viewing Experience.LAS VEGAS Las Vegas (läs vā`gəs), city (1990 pop. 258,295), seat of Clark co., S Nev.; inc. 1911. It is the largest city in Nevada and the center of one of the fastest-growing urban areas in the United States. -- BenQ, a leading manufacturer of digital lifestyle devices, today announced the general availability of the new PE8720 home cinema projector, which offers an ultra-high contrast ratio of 10000:1. The PE8720 provides a suite of features designed to deliver the highest standard of home cinematic viewing experience. Three separate technologies are employed to deliver deeper, clearer high-definition images with a best-in-class high contrast ratio of 10000:1. Two BenQ proprietary technologies, Senseye and the Advanced Continuous Electronic IRIS, increase contrast performance to an ultra-high 10000:1 ratio and optimize light intensity for bright and dark scenes. Also, a DarkChip3 DMD (1) (Digital Micromirror Device) See DLP. (2) (Digital Multi-layer Disk) See high-def DVD formats. from Texas Instruments See TI. (company) Texas Instruments - (TI) A US electronics company. A TI engineer, Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit in 1958. Three TI employees left the company in 1982 to start Compaq. decreases the scattering of light and significantly boosts image contrast for superior dark scenes. To provide a low-noise environment for an optimal real home cinematic experience, the PE8720 operates at a whisper-quiet 23dB for uninterrupted viewing. This noise reduction is made possible by the unique side-exhaust fans and L-shaped inlet tunnels. BenQ's patented side-exhaust fans lower the internal ambient temperature Outside temperature at any given altitude, preferably expressed in degrees centigrade. , allowing for efficient cooling by reducing fan RPM (revolutions per minute). To further reduce projector acoustics, BenQ adopts two L-shaped inlet tunnels equipped with a sound dampening muffler muffler, in automobiles, device designed to reduce the noise from the exhaust of an internal-combustion engine. When the exhaust gases from an internal-combustion engine are released directly into the atmosphere, they create a loud noise, caused by the passage of the and anti-vibration material in the Color Wheel holder. Apart from the superior image quality it delivers, the PE8720 makes it easy for users to adjust its settings. At the touch of one button, the PE8720's smart technology intelligently adjusts color, lighting settings and Advanced Electronic IRIS for frequently used home applications. In addition, the PE8720 features a customized 6-Color Setting function that offers users a direct, independent six-color adjustment of primary (RGB (Red Green Blue) The computer's native color space, which is the color system for capturing and displaying images. RGB was derived from our own perception of color because human eyes are sensitive to red, green and blue (see trichromaticity). ) and secondary (CMY (Cyan Magenta Yellow) The color space used for printing. In theory, equal amounts of all three colors produce black. In practice, a separate black ink is required for quality printing. See CMYK. ) colors. This convenient function enables the user to change color preferences without affecting the original color settings of other color preferences. Technical Specifications
