The dust-sealed, filter-free design prevents dust and dirt from affecting the optical system, ensuring optimal image quality with minimal maintenance requirements. Motorised lens shift, zoom and focus combined with 360° operation and interchangeable colour wheels provide total flexibility for simple, trouble-free installation. A choice of six premium-quality lenses, from wide focus through to extra-long zoom means that the WU1500 can be adapted to cover almost any projection distance.
An array of advanced connectivity options are provided as standard, including HDMI, DVI-D, 5 BNC, HDBaseT and 3G-SDI. Every aspect of the WU1500 has been carefully designed and built to suit the requirements of the professional installer – from the dependable lens mounting system, through to the backlit remote control keypad and operation panel. The Optoma ProScene WU1500 represents the ultimate in professional image projection.
Superb image quality is at the heart of every ProScene product. At every step, commencing with the incredibly reliable, high resolution WUXGA DLP® chip, where the image is initially created via the dual Philips UHP projection lamps, through to the precision optics which focus the image on the screen, accuracy and integrity of the image are paramount.
All Optoma ProScene projectors use DLP® technology for its image quality and unmatched reliability. The reflective nature of DLP® micro-mirror technology provides highly efficient, bright images with great contrast whilst maintaining precise colour accuracy and natural, real-world colour reproduction. For demanding professional applications, the proven reliability of DLP® technology makes it the obvious choice.
Better than Full HD resolution
When detail really matters, WUXGA resolution (1920 x 1200 pixels) offers 15% more image area than 1080p and 60% more than SXGA+. This enables unscaled Full HD video and extra detail. Time code information can be displayed on-screen at the same time, perfect for soundtrack recording and video editing editing where precise timing can be critical.
Lamps
The dual Philips 465W UHP lamps provide the highest possible luminance, the essential prerequisite of all high-performance projectors. These lamps stay brighter for longer, provide a long service life and a reduced loss of luminous flux throughout that life. In addition, the lamp drivers are specifically tuned for the lamps, ensuring optimum operating conditions and greater stability for any situation
Lamp Pulsing Techology
Advanced lamp-pulsing technologies enable colour performance to be fine-tuned directly from the lamp. This unprecedented control helps to create vibrant, perfectly saturated colours across the whole light spectrum. The result is stunningly accurate, naturallooking images.
Reliability
The Optoma ProScene WU1500 is designed for continuous 24/7 operation. Only the most reliable, industry proven components are used to ensure superior reliability. This hard-earned “capability” has been meticulously developed over a decade of designing and supporting millions of projectors the world over. The dust-sealed, filter-free design prevents dust and dirt from affecting the system – ensuring optimal image quality with minimal maintenance. ProScene customers can therefore be confident that, as one of the most reliable projector brands in the industry today, Optoma has a reputation for service excellence that is well deserved.
Lamp Switching
Dual lamps enable a level of reliability simply unavailable with a single-lamp projector. Both lamps can be used together to achieve maximum brightness, whilst still providing redundancy should one of them fail. Alternatively, a single lamp can be used in Relay Mode to deliver the full lifetime of each individual lamp, hence minimising service intervals.
Precision Optics
High quality glass optical elements maintain optimum sharpness and focus uniformity over the entire image. The ProScene insistence on uncompromising optical quality ensures extremely low colour flare and chromatic aberration resulting in crystal clear, high contrast images.
Select from a range of six premium-quality lenses, including short throw, wide zoom and long throw options. All have motorised shift, zoom and focus mechanisms, for easy and accurate adjustment after initial installation.
HDBaseT
HDBaseT enables transmission of uncompressed high definition video, audio, network and control signals over a single Category 6 twisted-pair cable. This streamlines installation and reduces labour, as well as allowing greater distances between the image source and the projector
Interchangeable Colour Wheels
Two colour wheel options ensure the performance characteristics of the WU1500 can be tailored to match the application. The standard colour wheel maximises brightness, whilst ensuring good colour reproduction. Alternatively, the ‘rich colour’ wheel trades some brightness for exceptional colour performance and accuracy. The colour wheels are interchangeable modules, and can be fitted or exchanged on-site, without removing the projector cover.
360° and Portrait Projection
Images can be projected over a full 360° range along the horizontal axis, including reproduction onto a ceiling or floor. The projector can also be placed in ‘portrait mode’ for applications such as digital signage and multi-projector displays.
