SEOUL, South Korea, July 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Optoma launches 4K UHD ultra-short throw projector, Optoma ‘Cinema X D2’ in Korea. The newly released D2 is equipped with a wide-angle lens that incorporates Optoma’s optical technology to realize a clearer and brighter image and improve the visual experience. CinemaX D2 is a new home cinema experience by supporting the ‘Enhanced Audio Return Channel’ (eARC) that reproduces high-quality sound sources without loss, with a reasonable price, high brightness, improved game functions, and a reasonable price, unlike ultra-short throw projectors that were previously recognized as expensive products. In particular, the laser light source provides a stable brightness of 3000 ANSI lumens, a dynamic contrast ratio of 1,800,000:1, and also shows a bright and detailed screen by complying with HDR (High Dynamic Range) and HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) compatible display standards.
The CinemaX D2 is an ultra-short throw projector that can project a 100-inch screen and project a maximum of 120 inches by just 25cm away from the wall. The ultra-short throw projector is a product that can realize a large screen even at a short throw distance, and unlike a typical projector, it requires only a small amount of space between the screen and the projector, so there is no need for a separate installation process. Since it can be placed on top of a decorative cabinet or installed in a buried form, interest and popularity are increasing as a substitute for TVs in addition to home theaters at home.
Optoma’s home entertainment lineup, CinemaX’s D2, offers a high refresh rate of 240Hz (1080p) and an input lag of 4.2ms in enhanced game mode in addition to excellent color reproduction. It provides a gaming environment comparable to a monitor with the shortest input lag of the projector. The built-in 20W output speaker is equipped with a sound engine optimized for Optoma products. It also supports eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) for high-quality movie soundtracks or music. eARC not only supports audio data transmission with a high bandwidth of up to 37Mbps, but also supports uncompressed 5.1 channel signals without a separate AV receiver. In particular, if the existing sound bar supports eARC, product functions can be upgraded without a separate receiver. In addition, it supports various convenient functions, such as eye protection through the built-in PIR sensor, 3×3 warping that can be projected even on curved screens, and color correction to match the projected wall color.
