Powerful, exciting three-dimensional (3D) full 1080P high-definition images
using the latest technologies projected onto a large 100” screen.
Enjoy breathtaking experiences anytime—all in the privacy of your own home.
Whether watching movies, live sports or nature documentaries, Mitsubishi Electric’ s HC9000D
home theater projector offers a new dimension of reality, placing you right in the middle of the action.
One viewing is all it will take to realize that everything else fails to compare.
Reproduction of Extraordinarily Clear 3D Images at 240 Frames/Second
Made Possible by Cutting-edge, Reflective Full-high-definition SXRD™ Panels
The use of 3D content is spreading and applications
are becoming more diverse. Following these ongoing
advancements closely, in addition to introducing the
new frame sequencing method, Mitsubishi Electric
has incorporated a side-by-side projection function
currently being used for 3D television broadcasts,
and plans to introduce a function to support
top-and-bottom projection.
The ability to switch between projection formats
ensures future compatibility with the various 3D
contents being utilized.
Wide Compatibility with 3D Television Broadcasts
Full-scale Use Available Soon
The shutter glasses design features not only the use of a lightweight resin frame,
but also a specially curved form for the temple section that sits on the ear and an
ergonomic bridge that comfortably fits the nose. These efforts ensure that the
glasses are easy to wear and use, and prevent them from shifting out of position
or becoming annoying when worn for long periods of time. For people who wear
prescription glasses, these active-shutter glasses can be used comfortably
together without any adjustment. Additionally, to
ensure maximum 3D-setting flexibility, image
brightness may be adjusted according to
individual user preference.

3D
The HC9000D uses advanced frame sequencing technology to reproduce 3D images in full 1080P.
Normal frame sequencing reproduces 120 frames per second; 60 each for the left and right eyes
alternately. However, the advanced reflective full-high-definition SXRD™ panels of the HC9000D
make it possible to reproduce 240 frames per second, twice that of the conventional method.
Along with the high-speed reproduction of images, the open time of the shutters in the special
active-shutter glasses is synchronized to ensure that images for the left and right eyes are not
mixed. Crosstalk, a phenomenon common in the reproduction of 3D images to date, has been
reduced a minimum, realizing amazingly detailed, high-definition 3D images that are so real
you’ll think you can reach out and touch them. A special screen is not required to enjoy 3D
content on the HC9000D (Polarized screens are not 3D compatible with the HC9000D).

Compared to conventional glass-substrate liquid-crystal panels that project
images by passing backlight through them, reflective full-high-definition
SXRD™ panels are made of a silicon substrate with a liquid-crystal coating,
and images are reproduced by reflecting the light. The development of
Normally black mode and an advanced
panel processing technology has
enabled higher brightness and contrast
and high-speed response to be realized.
Movies and other images such as those
of digital high-definition broadcasts are
reproduced naturally and with distinct
clarity.
Each of the primary colors
(Red, Green and Blue, RGB)
is processed by a separate
reflective liquid-crystal panel
to realize full-high-definition
resolution. The lighting from
each panel is merged at
the optical block and then
projected, resulting in
the reproduction of truly
natural colors with excellent
alignment and no mixing of
pixel colors.
Sharp, Smooth Reproduction of Fast-moving Images
Reflective Full-high-definition SXRD™ Panels* Incorporated
The space between pixels has been reduced to 0.2µm, a smaller gap than
previously used, and the structure between pixels has been optimized to
reduce crosstalk. Additionally, a 94% high aperture ratio has been achieved,
making the grid pattern*, which commonly becomes more prominent as
screen size increases, hardly noticeable. As a result, the original smooth
texture of moving images is beautifully expressed.
Negligible Grid Pattern Ensures Clearer Images on Large Screens
In addition to providing high contrast image reproduction, the newly
developed optical compensator significantly reduces light lost during
processing. The 18-step fixed aperture can be adjusted freely, improving
the reproduction of blacks. When the Iris is closed, we have realized black
color darker than before resulting in a maximum contrast of 150,000:1.
Motion vector analysis technology is applied for highly accurate frame
alignment using preceding and following images. This compensation
function creates the optimal number of frames for the content, reducing
distortion in all directions: vertically, laterally and diagonally.
Built-in Frame Rate Convertor (FRC)
Compensation Ensures Optimal Frame Number for Contents
A key element in projector performance is the lens. The lens incorporated
in the HC9000D has a 6-piece/17-cluster structure including a high-end,
extra-low dispersion (ED) lens with advanced functionality compared to
standard glass lenses. Peripheral focusing performance is improved, and
chromatic aberration and color mixing are reduced to a minimum.

Cinema Filter increases the purity of green in
particular, realizing vivid expression of
the greens such those in the scene of a
deeply forested hillside. Further, by expanding
the green and cyan spectrums, cinema-like
image reproduction is achieved.

Enhanced Depth and Clarity
Color Management allows the independent adjustment of Hue,
Saturation, Gain for R (Red), G (Green), B (Blue), C (Cyan), M
(Magenta) and Y (Yellow). Subtle color adjustment is possible, enabling
content to be enjoyed in color tones matched to the user’s preference.

The resolution of the content delivered by the projector varies widely, from
Blu-ray (1,920 ×1,080) to DVD (720×480) and other formats.
In the case of DVDs, the content must be converted to 1,920×1,080, and
the higher the conversion precision, the better the image quality.
This is performed using an IC (manufactured by IDT) highly evaluated for its
image-processing performance.
Processing such as highly precise
interlace/progressive (I/P)
conversion and scaling allows
formats such as DVD, and of course
full-high-definition content, to be
reproduced with high picture quality.

With vertical adjustment of 100% and horizontal
adjustment of 45%, the wide-ranging lens shift
function increases the degree of freedom for
projector placement. Incorporation of the 1.8x
power zoom lens enables projection to a 100”
screen from a throw distance as short as 3.4m or
as far as 6.3m. The high-performance motor also
allows subtle magnification and focus adjustments.
Wide Lens Shift Range Increases Setup Possibilities
The remote controller is equipped with
illuminated buttons for easy operation even
in a dark room. Image quality can be
