Christie RPMSP-LED01 and RPMWU-LED01 LED SXGA+ and WUXGA Videowall Products for Control Rooms

Christie, an innovator in purpose-built projection display systems, is pleased to introduce two new high resolution LED-based rear projection products. Designed specifically for control room and videowall applications the Christie Entero™ LED 1-chip DLP® series is available in both SXGA+ (1400 x 1050) and WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolutions. The future of seamless 24/7 rear projection is here! Based on a “Zero Maintenance” design platform, the Entero LED series surpasses other lamp based rear projection systems for low maintenance and ownership cost. Advances in technology have enabled LEDs to be ideally suited for rear projection videowall displays, offering an incredible number of benefits over traditional mercury lamp based illumination.

Benefits of LED illumination include:

  • Solid state. LEDs are solid state. There is no lamp arc to ignite, degrade or maintain over time.
  • Instant on. Unlike arc lamps which may take over a minute to turn on and reach full brightness, LEDs turn on very fast.
  • Extremely long life. The rated lifetime of the LED-based illumination system is 50,000 hours (5.7 years). Actual lifetime may extend beyond 80,000 hours.
  • No color wheel required. The fast speed of LEDs removes the need for a motorized color wheel in 1 chip DLP® systems. Red, green and blue LEDs can be sequenced at rates many times faster than color wheels, thus reducing the likelihood of visible sequencing artifacts.
  • Wider color gamut for more vivid color. The color spectral characteristics surpass that of traditional color wheel based systems. EBU standards are far exceeded with LEDs and the system allows color performance to be easily manipulated to best match the application.
  • Better brightness control. LEDs offer a wide range of brightness control, unlike mercury lamps which offer only about 10-25% brightness adjustment. And there is no need for a mechanical aperture (iris) to adjust brightness.
  • Environmentally responsible. LEDs are an environmentally responsible “green” light source, free of hazardous substances found in conventional lamp technologies.
