Projectiondesign Action Model Three Projector Specifications

							
Action! model three
The  projectiondesign  Action! model  three  is  the  ultimate  implementation 
of  the  Texas  Instruments®  single  chip  DLP™  technology.  Combining  the 
HD2+ Mustang DMD™ with our proprietary DuArch
™ illumination architec-
ture - implementing two completely individual lamps, dual 7-segment colour 
wheels,  and  dual  light  optimization  and  recovery  –  available  performance 
from  a  single  chip  system  is  unprecedented.  Contrast  levels  up  to  7500:1 
and  adjustable  brightness  levels  from  800  to  2500  ANSI  lumens  on  screen 
ensures the model three caters for any screen size one could possibly want 
or need in a domestic home cinema.
DuArch™ illumination architecture
projectiondesign  has  patented  the  new  DuArch™  illumination  architecture. 
By using two lamps with exceptional power, head room is greatly extended, 
and enables much higher contrasts and tuning possibilities than other, com-
parable single chip systems. With greater available brightness reserves, it is 
possible  to  adapt  to  any  one  setting  and  environment  with  higher  contrast 
and higher brightness levels than with any other comparable projector. Dual 
7-segment NDG color wheels, as well as dual iris control enable much higher 
accuracy in color reproduction, and provide stunning, saturated colors with 
high color resolution.
Extensive installation and asset management options
A  wide  range  of  six  motorized  lenses  are  available  for  the  Action!  model 
three,  covering  throw  ratios  from  as  short  as  0.88  :  1  all  the  way  up  to 
7.70  :  1.  All  lenses  are  motorized,  and  support  lens  shift  both  horizontally 
and  vertically.  The  continuously  adjustable  dual  iris  control  gives  complete 
control over performance. In combination with control over IP, RS232 or IR, 
this gives superb fl exibility in installation, with both rear and front projection 
possibilities.  The  Action!  model  three  can  even  have  it’s  fi rmware  updated 
over IP, so in effect can be managed remotely by the system integrator.
