Delta Electronics took the IFA global stage and announced the companies first LED-powered DLP projector. The initial specs sound good - expect one, keep reading - 1080p, large color gamut, and 20,000 hours on the LED unit. The company didn’t announce pricing yet, but it will be at CEDIA next week so I’ll hit ‘em up with some questions then.
Before I ask about price though, I want to know the brightness in terms of lumens. It curiously wasn’t announced and that one spec is the reason major projector players haven’t produced LED models yet. LED units tend to last longer than metal halide bulbs, but they also tend to not be as bright. Hear me right though, I’m not dogging the projector just yet, as I would love to see a demonstration and receive a full white paper on the unit before I do.
I also would like to see a white paper. I’m thinking about 400 ANSI output, but what about the LED high intensity light spectrum? Would any physiological, or viewing stress levels effect the viewers long term vision?
