Optoma

World’s first 3D Projector Adapter Road-show

London, October 2010 – Optoma announce the first European demonstrations of the 3D-XL., a fully immersive, life-size 3D projection adapter for the home. The world’s first 3D projector adapter, the Optoma 3D-XL adapts existing DLP® projectors to enable them to display 3D content at home.

Compatible with 3D broadcast signals such as Sky 3D in the UK; 3D Blu-ray players and 3D games from the Sony® PS3, the 3D-XL simply connects between a 3D source and any 3D Ready DLP® projector. Featuring 2 x HDMI 1.4a connections, the 3D-XL allows two separate sources to be connected to it simultaneously, providing simple switching between, for example, a PS3 3D game and Sky3D broadcasts.

Justin Halls, Head of Product Management at Optoma Europe commented, “The huge, greater than 100”, 3D projected images in the home provide a fantastically immersive experience that is just not possible with the small screen of a 3D TV and amazingly the total cost of this jaw-dropping 3D experience is a fraction of the cost of 3D TV’s!”

The 3D-XL is ideal for use with the any of the 14 compatible models in the Optoma range and additionally with all DLP® Link 3D compatible projectors such as those from Acer and Benq.

Included with the 3D-XL is a pair of the new stylish and lightweight second generation Optoma ZD201 3D glasses, designed specifically for the 3D-XL to give the highest image quality possible today.

Optoma will demonstrate the 3D-XL to the press at events throughout Europe beginning at the end of October and will be available to buy from January 2011. Please visit the Optoma website for further details and to register for updates on this product and to enquire about details of the roadshow.
