Optoma expands its LED home cinema range

Optoma has announced its multi-award winning HD91 home cinema projector, which harnesses ground-breaking LED technology, is now available with a shorter throw lens. The new HD90 has the same high-quality specs as the HD91 and is capable of throwing an enormous 100-inch picture onto a screen or wall from less than three metres away.

Cinema fans, TV buffs and keen gamers will now be able to experience 2D and 3D digital cinema quality in any room in their home through the new HD90 projector. As the HD90 and HD91 produce less heat than traditional lamp-based projectors, they can be installed close to walls or ceilings or even built into a small enclosure. The combination of a shorter throw lens and LED technology in the HD90 enables unique placement flexibility. For example, it can be hidden beneath the surface of a coffee table, which breaks free from the traditional method of mounting a projector on the ceiling.

Optoma’s Head of Product Marketing, Justin Halls, said: “We are delighted to unveil the new HD90 which offers an alternative lens option to the already popular HD91.”

The LED illumination in the HD90 and HD91 provides consistent brightness and a greater depth of colour that rivals the performance of studio quality three chip DLP projectors. This means the perceived brightness of the HD90 and HD91 LED projectors can be up to twice the brightness of an equivalent lamp-based projector. This is known as the Helmholtz-Kohlrausch (HK) effect.

This enhanced brightness perception means the HD90 and HD91 can comfortably render screen sizes far higher than their ANSI brightness specifications would suggest. And it allows the HD90 and HD91 to handle low levels of ambient light with less impact on image quality than lamp based systems.

With vividly intense colours, the 3D action literally jumps out at you in your living room. This means live sport, TV and movies can be enjoyed in stunning 3D making you feel part of the action.  The 3D-sync port can connect to the Optoma 3D system (sold separately).  The fully-rechargeable 3D glasses are optimised to provide higher contrast and bright images, while eliminating any issues of emitter placement, limited range and potential interference commonly experienced when using infra-red.

A full specification sheet for the HD90 and HD91 together with information on the full product range, brochures and images of the projectors are available from www.optoma.co.uk
