HD81 Home Theater Projection System
Definitive Color…Incredible Resolution…Ultimate Performance
HD81 Home Theater Projection System
Advanced Video Processing
The HD81’s video enhancement processor delivers an advanced three-stage process
flow (decoding, image enhancement and color reproduction enhancement) that offers
impressive, personalized adjustment settings at each stage. With a full-range of
adjustments for both digital and analog inputs, the video processor provides the
power and control to satisfy the most demanding video connoisseur.
The video processor features an abundance of advanced connectivity options,
including three HDMI inputs, up to five component inputs and one external HDMI
expansion port, as well as RS-232 and discrete IR remote control functionality. With
the power of the Gennum VXP and the support of ISFccc modes, the video processor
is one of the highest quality scaler/motion adaptive HD de-interlacer in the market.
The Optoma HD81 is a distinctive two-piece projection system that includes a native 1080p DLP®projector and a video
enhancement processor. Featuring Texas Instruments’ DarkChip3™ DMD chipset and a variety of advanced video
enhancement technologies, the Optoma HD81 projection system delivers remarkable color saturation and subtle details
for the best in 1080p image quality.
The HD81 also features an active 16-step, auto-Iris function that boosts the contrast ratio up to 10,000:1. With 10-bit
color per channel color processing and a 7-segment color wheel, the Optoma HD81 delivers great color saturation and
subtle color details for the best image quality.
The HD81’s video enhancement processor delivers an advanced three-stage process flow (decoding, image enhancement
and color reproduction enhancement) that offers an impressive, personalized adjustment setting at each stage.
The two-piece design of the HD81 eliminates the need for multiple cables; all that is needed for the projector to be
connected is a single HDMI video cable and a single control cable. With the processor’s extensive inputs, there are more
than enough connections to up-convert sources to 1080p for optimal viewing.
Optoma’s innovative cable management system makes wire-filled installations a thing of the past. Optoma developed an
easy-to-install cabling solution to deliver a loss- and interference-free signal from the video enhancement processor to the
1080p projector. This fully digital source-to-display link is connected through a high-speed digital cable signal; and then
transmits data to more than 100 feet.
