unco’s award winning development of 
CineWide™ and CineWide with 
AutoScope™ technology has created 
a revolution in faithful movie 
reproduction, for the first time transforming home 
theater into home cinema.
This technology provides uncompromised widescreen 
reproduction of movies originally filmed in the CinemaScope™ 2:35:1 
format. It maintains constant vertical height on the screen just as in a movie theater. When a 
viewer transitions from 1.78:1 (16:9) program material to superwide 2.35:1, the image simply 
gets wider while full screen image height is maintained, eliminating black bars.
This is done through an ingenious combination of software, electronics and precision 
anamorphic optics. With the AutoScope option, the anamorphic lens is motorized and remote 
controlled. 
With CineWide the projector is able to use the full pixel array on its SuperOnyx™ DMD™ 
chip, thereby producing a 2.35:1 image with enhanced resolution and increased brightness. 
No resolution or image area is lost to useless black bars on the top and bottom of the screen 
that contain no picture information. CineWide is available on the CL-610/610LT and 
CL-810/810 Ultra. AutoScope is available on the CL-810 Ultra.
CineWide and AutoScope technology is the talk of the industry.  These are among the awards and acknowledgements we have already received\

CL-810 Ultra
O-Path™ Technology and CinOptx™ Premium Grade Lens Systems are featured on the CL-810 Ultra. O-Path efficiently collimates the light energy from the lamp though the optical path to maximize light output and eliminate stray light that can reduce brightness and compromise contrast ratio performance. The broad variety of lenses in the CinOptx family are designed to bring images faithfully to the screen without the geometric and color spectrum aberrations common among “production” lenses.
Runco International has carefully developed a full set of specification standards for our video projectors that is founded upon more realistic and easier to understand criteria for expressing the light output or brightness capability of a display device, as well as its contrast 
ratio. The Cinema Standards 
Measurement System™ was developed based on the actual experience one has in a movie theater, providing the consumer with an objective reference point to compare specifications.
Runco’s exclusive CineWide™ and CineWide with AutoScope™ technology ensures uncompromised widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the CinemaScope 2.35:1 format. Through a combination of software, electronics and anamorphic optics, the projector is able to use the full pixel array on its DMD chip, thereby producing a 2.35 image with enhanced resolution and increased brightness. The full vertical height of the screen is filled with the image and useless black bars are eliminated. (Not available on the CL-410 and CL-420).
The LiveLink™ DVI cabling system is Runco’s exclusive solution for reliable, pure digital video signal transfer. This is the first DVI cabling system capable of truly supporting longer runs while preserving all essential high-resolution video signal quality. LiveLink is nothing short of a revolution for home theater design.
The new Reflection Portfolio products incorporate the Imaging Science Foundation’s “ISF 3c™” (Certified Calibration Configuration) setup and calibration standards in projector GUI menus to facilitate picture quality conforming to the highest standards in the industry.

*ANSI Lumen specification: This is the typical projector luminosity (brightness) specification found in most sales literature. This measurement is included in RUNCO literature to allow for direct comparison with other manufacturer’s projectors. These measurements can be taken at 9,000 to 13,000º Kelvin to get expected performance data when the projector is used in professional, commercial, and industrial displays.**CSMS Home Theater Calibration ANSI Lumen Specification: These measurements are taken from the projector as set up in a home theater environment. The projector is calibrated to ISF specifications including setting the color temperature to 6500º Kelvin, the standard for reproducing video.
**CSMS Home Theater Calibration foot-Lambert (fL) Specification: This is the unit of measurement used in commercial movie theaters to express image brightness. The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) specifies 16 fL as the target image brightness for film-based projectors using an open gate (without film in the projector). More importantly, today SMPTE specifies 12 fL as the target image brightness in Digital Cinema  theaters using DLP™ technology. The foot-Lambert is dependant on screen size, screen gain, and projector light output.All measurements are made at RUNCO to ANSI/NAPM IT7.228-1997 specifications using the Photo Research PR-650 SpectraColorimeter and Minolta LS-100 Luminance Meter, Video Essentials test DVD, and a Stewart Filmscreen StudioTech 130, 1.3 gain 72-inch wide screen. The projector is calibrated to a color temperature of 6500º Kelvin and has a minimum of 150 hours of usage.
