Italian projector maker SIM2 Multimedia announces a team up with China's Shanxi OV-LaserTec in the development of a "breakthrough" projector based on SIM2's Alphapath platform and OV-LaserTec's pure-laser despeckle technology.
The co-development still lacks a name, but according to the two companies it will deliver up to 12000 lumens of brightness and expanded colour gamut within a smaller, lower-cost form factor.
The OV-LaserTec RGB laser light illumination engine uses speckle reduction technology to eliminate first speckle, speckled speckle and colour speckle from the screen, with no optical power loss. It features a dust-free structure and an accurate cooling system to provide reliability and safe performance. The technology is combined with a re-engineered version of the SIM2 Alphapath engine and SIM2 calibration software to ensure smooth performance even in 3D mode.
