High Performance Portable F10/F12 Series

The F10/F12 series is designed with several applications in mind, and it is especially suitable for inclusion in motion simulators, scientific visualization applications, and applications that require an ultra reliable projector that can handle rough handling and at the same time provide the ultimate in image quality.

WUXGA, 1080p, or SXGA+ Resolution. The F10/F12 series can be configured with both WUXGA, 1080p and SXGA+ resolution for computer or video centric applications. Where computer based image generation with maximum detail and accuracy is the primary concern, 1920x1200 pixels (WUXGA) is the obvious choice, and fully compatible with the legacy 1600x1200 format. Furthermore, for video centric applications, the 1920x1080 (1080p) pixel resolution perfectly fits HD video and data. Whether computer or video, wide screen or legacy 4:3, there is a model with the right resolution available. In fact, with this range of resolutions, the F12 covers nearly any requirement in virtually any professional AV installation.

DLP Technology. The DLP technology from Texas Instruments® is chosen for its unmatched reliability performance, and its unique coupling with long lasting image quality. With a widely recognized and proven reliability record, and high brightness and contrast, all whilst displaying utterly natural colors, it is the obvious choice for heavy duty applications, or applications that are that run continuously, or are mission critical. Independent testing has proven DLP technology to be the most reliable of all microdisplays; not degrading when subjected to UV light, inherent in all projectors. Unlike competing technologies, showing severe image quality degradation after only a few thousand hours, DLP technology remains constant over hundreds of thousands of hours.

RealColor Color Management. RealColor provides a unique and quick way to calibrate and set up perfect images for any number of projectors. RealColor can alter imagery by changing simple characteristics such as the co lour temperature of the image – perfectly along the black body curve, or very complex attributes such as each co lour’s relative saturation and x/y coordinates. In fact, it is perfect to within 0.002 along all axis of measurement. RealColor works by mathematically calculating each co lour independently.

VIDI™ Technology Improves Gray Scale. VIDI™ technology from Philips enables dynamic lamp driving over time, and enhances image quality. It greatly reduces gray scale artifacts, adds to co lour saturation, enhances contrast, and improves lamp stability. Each projector configuration’s lamp runs differently from that of others, and ensures a lamp that is specifically tailored to the application it is used for. Unlike non-VIDI based projectors, the lamp power is digitally controlled, as is its performance over time.

Low Total Cost of Ownership. Thanks to its robust build and construction, the F10/F12 series requires close to no maintenance and in-life servicing. There are no user serviceable parts inside, and it does not have any filters or other parts that need periodical replacement. That means it does not require a costly and high frequency maintenance contract. Typical lamp replacement cost is low*, and typical lamp life is long. In total, the F12 is a very cost effective projector over time, resulting in a fully predictable and very low Total Cost of Ownership.

Designed for Full 24/7 Operation. All ProjectionDesign professional projectors feature full 24/7 operation warranties. That means they are designed to operate continuously. There is no fine print. Designing for 24/7 operation requires a lot of attention to detail. Some technologies are better than others when it comes to withstand the abuse of time. We use only components that have predictable behaviors, for instance fans, co lour wheel motors, and electronic components that are designed by their respective manufacturers to do the same - withstand time. There are no off-the-shelf components. That is why we also closely monitor the creation of every detail, apply dedicated thermal management, and use specific materials in all parts of the process.

Designed for Use in Multi-Channel Systems. With the unique co lour matching and calibration tools provided in the RealColor co lour management suite, the F12 series is virtually made for matching of images, edge blending and multi-channel installations. No matter whether the process is done electronically in software or by using external hardware solutions. Deep black levels and and a high level of black and white level uniformity, add to the impressive performance. As a custom option, ProjectionDesign also offers industry unique manual optical co lour matching.

Low Frequency Maintenance Program. ProjectionDesign's Low Frequency Maintenance program. can be set to automatically notify of required service and maintenance When run continuously, moving parts such as fans and co lour wheels require periodic replacement in order to secure and enable heavy duty continuous operation. With the F10/F12 series, the duty cycle of any one component is as long as 8000 hours, meaning a full year’s operation in 24/7 without any maintenance.
