Image-Caching Projector

Image-Caching Projector 07/13/2004 11:50 PM

Here's an idea I came up with while on a walk tonight. There's a 50-percent chance it's already been invented — if it has, tell me where to find it.

The world needs a PC projector that will cache the displayed image. Say I'm tooling through my presentation in front of Mr. Venture Capitalist and I suddenly need to find something on a Web site.

Now, I don't want Mr. VC to see me fumbling around the Web (I'm supposed to know what I'm doing, right?), so the only choice I have is to shut off the projector or suspend the connection from the laptop so that I can Google without being displayed to the room. Room goes dark, there's an uncomfortable silence, and it's painfully obvious that everyone is waiting on me.

But what if I could freeze the image displayed from the projector? That way, VC and Co. could continue to look at the last slide I was showing them (my partner would chime in here with something witty to take the focus off me) and I could search away.

When I finally found what I needed and my screen looked like I wanted it to, I could resume the projector. Extra points if I could fade in from the last displayed image to my current screen.

Does this exist? If so, show me. If not, I just gave away a million dollar idea. That should be engraved on my tombstone.

Teeny Mitsubishi Projector 06/17/2005 06:13 PM

We don't usually cover projectors (they're really boring), but here's an Smurf-sized projector with a lot of moxie. It weighs less than a pound and uses three LEDs to pound a 250 LUX picture into that enclosed space. Mitsubishi suggests using the projector in a car or boat, but if you have enough room to project a video in your car, then you need to rethink your priorities.

Mitsubishi LVP-XD450 Projector

Mitsubishi LVP-XD450 Projector 08/04/2004 07:49 AM

If a DLP (digital light processing) projector is your cup of tea, Mitsubishi's announcement of the "LVP-XD450" should be your cup of coffee. According to Mitsubishi, this new projector has the industry's highest brightness and contrast ratio (2,600 Lumens and 2,200:1 respectively; don't know about "highest," but that is pretty good). And since the projectors are rated at screens up to 200-inch, I would be fully willing to review one of these units for anyone who has one on hand, provided you also supply the screen. I doubt my computer could actually run Doom III at this projector's 1280 x 1024 resolution, but Pinkydemons would still be life-sized.

Infocus 4805 projector

Infocus 4805 projector 08/01/2004 03:30 AM
Some weeks ago we got an Infocus 4805 projector. I picked that one because it got good reviews and at $1500 was one of the cheapest 16:9 DLP projectors I could find. Crutchfield have a 30 day return policy with no restocking fee or any such sillyness, so I thought I'd be worth to try out rather than ordering a more expensive one. If you go higher you are mostly paying for higher resolution, which you can't use anyway if...

Toshiba ET1 Projector Reviewed

Toshiba ET1 Projector Reviewed 07/01/2004 12:31 PM

Pocket-Lint reviews the pleasingly droid-like Toshiba ET1 projector, a relatively low-quality (848 x 480 pixel) home projector that is most notable for its swiveling base. The idea is to use the ET1 wherever convenient, like a coffee table, say. This would be fine if the native resolution weren't crap -- 800 x 600 is the bare minimum these days as far as I'm concerned. Pocket-Lint likes it, though, and I suppose for regular television or videogaming, it'd probably be fine. £1000 just seems like a lot of money when there are projectors on the market like the Infocus X2 for even less money.

SUVi Corporation is all set to release their "DLA7000" full HD D-ILA projector next month for around 4,500,000 yen. Only 100 of these will be produced per year. The specs aren't too crappy (and I'd hope not, for $45K), with support for all HD signals up to 1080p and a contrast ratio of 2,000:1.

Toshiba DLP Projector With Document
Scanner 04/13/2005 08:57 AM

Toshiba has announced their new DLP Projector, called the TDP-SC25U. Featuring a detachable document camera, the projector weighs just 8.6 pounds and maintains a high level of portability for the roving college professor. It accepts S-video, component and composite inputs and features a monitor output connector that lets users see what's being projected onto an external display. The benefit with this design, as DAPreview points out, is that it affords the presenter the ability to face his audience while presenting instead of needing to turn to review his slides. A suggested price of $1,200 along with a projection distance of up to 33 ft and a diagonal screen size reaching 300 inches makes this projector quite tempting. Toshiba says that it's shipping now, too.

Runco VX-2c Video Xtreme Projector

Runco VX-2c Video Xtreme Projector 06/29/2004 12:16 PM

With a three-chip DLP setup and a 16:9 1,280 by 720 native resolution, the Runco VX-2c can probably be forgiven for its "Video Xtreme" moniker, if just barely. The VX-2c is also the first to use Runco's LiveLink technology, which boosts DVI signals so that they can be run without loss of signal quality in lengths up to 75 feet, which greatly opens up the possibilities of where you can mount the projector. All in all, it looks like a fine projector, and as soon as I can get this cut to stop bleeding, I'll go sell this kidney for the extra $40,000 sale price.

Acer PD520 DLP Projector Review

Acer PD520 DLP Projector Review 05/28/2004 11:00 AM

TrustedReviews takes a look at the Acer PD520 DLP projector and comes away moderately happy, although its not the most stringent of reviews (writer Gordon Kelly seems mostly just enthused about using a projector in general). Although lacking in some connections both common (composite) and less common (SCART), it in general looks to be a solid projector for a reasonable price (around $1,200 or so). Unfortunately, Acer isn't pushing their projectors into the US market at this time, so if you want to give the PD520 a whirl, you'll have to talk to some importers.
