Brilliant Color™ technology with a faster color
wheel. A contrast ratio of up to 2500:1 captures
blacker blacks and crisper whites. And the
ultra-fast DLP chip results in the fastest video
performance of any HDTV. Best yet, Samsung’s

Cinema Smooth 720p Light Engine
Samsung’s Cinema Smooth 720p light engine is the culmination of years of industry-
leading research and development. It releases the maximum power of the new generation
of DMD microdisplays for the most film-like picture. It creates an image with no visible pixel
structure and accurate shading and better low-light detail.
Next Generation DLP Chips from Texas Instruments
Samsung employs a Texas Instruments DLP chip that is comprised of millions of micro-
scopic mirrors. The DLP chip is faster than any HDTV technology, with the mirrors capable
of switching on & off at 15,000 or more times a second to deliver a razor-sharp picture for
fast moving images When combined with Samsung’s new Cinema Smooth light engine,
the result is a crisp, bright picture with deep, rich colors that’s closer to film.
Faster Color Wheel
Samsung’s 2.2” color wheel spins at 14,400 rpm for smooth fast-motion video, and
has five color segments for more accurate colors. Comprised of the 3 primary colors,
Red, Green and Blue plus Cyan and Yellow. It achieves film-like transitions and
eliminates the pixel breakup found in slower color wheel designs and slower-switching
LCD microdisplays. The Cinema Smooth™ light engine uses a whisper quiet air
bearing design.
Samsung’s DNIe™– Digital Natural Image Engine
Samsung’s exclusive Digital Natural Image engine makes the sharpest and clearest images
possible, regardless of the profile of input signals. Five image processors and a six-times
density enhancer ensure the best picture from any source. Now in its fourth generation,
DNIe guarantees the truest colors and highest contrast, while virtually eliminating digital artifacts.
My Color Control
You can get the pink tones, the green of the grass and the blue of the sky just the way
you like, without affecting the other colors on the screen. The three primary colors can be
adjusted to perfectly fit your taste. Self expression meets display perfection.

Cinema Smooth light engine brings together the right optics, electronic circuitry and replaceable light source to create a brilliant
picture that’s more lifelike and much closer to film. Now in its fifth year of evolution, Samsung’s Cinema Smooth light engine
delivers crisp, 720p High Definition resolution with high contrast and brightness, defined edges and sharp detail.
