It meets the demand for absolute realism in immersive media spaces by creating detailed 4K images without visible pixels or gridding, even when viewed up close. Captivate your guests with an engaging visual experience that illuminates the creator’s world and elevates your storytelling.
Rich Color Enhancer Brings the Creator’s Work to Life
Rich Color Enhancer is an original 2-mode color optimization technology. Dynamic Mode balances brightness and color for clear visibility in bright environments. Standard Mode optimizes color reproduction by expanding red-channel output for vibrant red expression. This is critical for the accurate and immersive reproduction of artwork and other color-rich content.
Digital Art Mode Increases Visual Impact
Digital Art Mode is a new picture mode that optimizes the presentation of high-quality digital artwork in museums, galleries, and immersive entertainment spaces. This mode allows you to easily enhance projection quality, emphasizing high contrast and vivid color reproduction for a more impactful viewing experience.
Smooth 1080/240p Playback
Can play 1080/240p video with an input-to-output latency of 8 ms, smoothly reproducing fast-paced action such as eSports with minimal motion blur. The projectors also work with Panasonic’s optional ET-SWR10 Real-Time Tracking Projection-Mapping System. With this ready-to-use Software Development Kit (SDK), you can link with infrared cameras and project images onto fast-moving objects at 240 Hz, smoothly and seamlessly combining visual content and physical motion within your XR attraction.
Compact & Expandable for Easy Installation
Light, Quiet, and Easy to Manage
With a compact body about 29% smaller by volume and 22% lighter, saves resources and reduces your carbon footprint in transport, storage, and installation. It can be easily carried by one person, smoothing multi-projection logistics. Furthermore, the efficient cooling system reduces operating noise to as little as 31 dB1, ensuring your audience stays focused on the experience and not the equipment creating it.
Compatible with Existing DLE Series Lenses
Compatible with Panasonic’s DLE Series projection lenses, offering versatility for diverse production layouts and making the transition to 4K more cost-effective for businesses with existing lens inventories. The projector’s strengthened lens mounter now supports the ET-DLE020G/ET-DLE020 Ultra-Short-Throw Zoom Lens without requiring a bracket, streamlining installation. These lenses feature powered zoom3, focus, and vertical/horizontal lens shift, conveniently controllable via remote or the Smart Projector Control app
Supports New Media Processors to Simplify Multi-Projection
The projector works with Panasonic’s ET-FMP50 Series media processors to simplify multi-projection complexity. The processors, which comprise box-type and function board-type for the projector's Intel® SDM standard-compatible SLOT, feature automatic camera-based1 warping/blending and 4K media playback capabilities.
Wide Scalability with Intel® SDM Standard-Compatible SLOT
Compatible with optional proprietary and third-party function boards that insert into its Intel® SDM standard-compatible SLOT, making it easy to adapt, scale, and expand your projector’s connectivity. For a list of compatible function boards
Smart Projector Control App Smooths Your Workflow
Smart Projector Control app lets you control up to 64 projectors from your phone or tablet. It enables projector setting adjustment from your device, which is useful when OSD menu projection isn’t possible. Other functions include test pattern selection, shutter control, Web Control UI access, lens settings adjustment, brightness locking, and focus adjustment via the device camera from distances of up to 30 m (98 ft). The app enables swift connection to the projector via QR Code scanning, eliminating password/SSID entry.
Geo Pro Automates Screen Adjustment and Blending
Built-in geometric adjustment tools, including a point-based Free Grid function to correct localized screen distortion. It ships with preactivated upgrade kit licenses for Geo Pro software. These comprise the ET-UK20 Geometry Manager Pro Software Upgrade Kit, which expands functionality and adds sophisticated line, shape, and bitmap masking tools, and the ET-CUK10 Auto Screen Adjustment Upgrade Kit, which automates edge-blending including brightness, color, and black level adjustment via a camera.
Contrast Sync and Shutter Sync via LAN Cable Only
Traditionally, Dynamic Contrast control operated individually for each projector in a multi-screen system, leading to step noise in blends due to variations in the Average Picture Level (APL). Panasonic’s Contrast Sync resolves this issue by using the average APL of all projectors in the system, resulting in a seamless multi-screen image. The first Panasonic projector to support Contrast Sync via LAN cable only, eliminating the need for a serial cable connection and reducing system complexity. Additionally, the shutter timing of all sub-projectors is synchronized with the main projector via the LAN connection, ensuring cohesive fade-in/fade-out effects across the entire projection.
NEW TECHNOLOGY: Quickly Find the Projection Angle with Angle Monitor
Supports 360° projection angles, enabling image mapping on floors, walls, and 3D objects. However, aligning the projection angle with the design simulation can be challenging and requires two people. The projectors feature a built-in gyro sensor detecting changes in the projector’s pitch and roll angles, graphically displayed in the OSD settings menu. Installers can adjust the projection angle without needing assistance.
Eco Boost Maintains Perceived Brightness with Reduced Consumption
A new Eco Boost mode further reduces energy consumption when Dynamic Contrast is enabled while maintaining perceived brightness.
Reduce Errors with Remote Preview LITE
Remote Preview LITE allows projectionists to confirm connectivity and assess image adjustments before the video is projected by viewing preview thumbnails on a laptop. This is valuable at live events where checking content on the screen is limited due to soundchecks and other logistical factors. Accessible via software or web browser, it works with the projector in Standby or with the shutter on, minimizing errors before performances.
