Actually, now that I’ve read the description page on Sanyo’s website, I understand the tech they’re using.

It’s not a laser-projector (like I had initially thought). It’s a 3-DLP system that uses 3 lasers as the light sources. (Imagine replacing the light bulb in a DLP projector with a laser, only 3 of them: R, G, B) So this is really just a very big DLP projector with ultra-clean and bright light sources.

It’s still pretty neat, but I’m holding out for a pure, true short-throw laser projector.

BTW: The little bumps on the top left/right are cameras that detect when someone’s getting too close to the lens. It will turn off the lasers as a safety precaution.

I think the lense is used to spread the image to get the throw (100 inches if the screen is 63cm away) otherwise you would have to be much further away to get that size.

DO WANT!

I can’t wait to see the price on this behemoth, and I’ll gladly take out a second mortgage on my house to get it!

One question though: If it’s a _laser_ projector, why does it have…lenses? Hmmm…
