algorithms to significantly reduce noise, enhance overall image detail, and optimize contrast so
every scene produces sharp, vibrant, life - like images.
Advanced Iris 3 The Advanced Iris 3 function provides up to a 60,000:1 contrast ratio by optimizing

24p True Cinema™ 24p True Cinema technology provides a direct connection to 24p video
sources so you can avoid conversions and enjoy films at their intended 24 fps (frames per second).
x.v.Color™ x.v.Color technology takes HD color expression to new levels. When connected to
x.v.Color capable video sources, such as select Sony ® camcorders, the VPL - HW15 can display nearly
twice as many (1.8x) viewable colors as the existing RGB color standard, resulting in more natural,
life - like images.

Deep Color By combining a 10 - bit processor with 10 - bit SXRD™panels, the VPL - HW15 can create and
display 64 times the level of color expression of 8 - bit projectors, resulting in smoother color
gradations and helping to avoid a “paint - by - numbers”look.
