Mirage J Series User Manual1-1020-100708-01 Rev. 1 (11-2011) 1 Introduction Every effort has been made to ensure the information in this document is accurate and reliable; however, due to constant research the information in this document is subject to change without notice. 1.1 Projector Overview The Mirage J Series projectors provide a powerful combination of high resolution video/graphics, 3 chip 1080p HD, SXGA+, and WUXGA resolutions, high brightness and high contrast ratios to produce flawless, realistic three-dimensional images for simulation, virtual reality and other stereographic related applications. This document applies to the following projector models: Table 1.1 Mirage J Series Projectors Model NamePart Number MIRAGE DS+8K-J 132-004127-XX MIRAGE HD7K-J 132-005128-XX MIRAGE WU7K-J 132-006129-XX MIRAGE S+14K-J 132-010124-XX MIRAGE HD14K-J 132-011125-XX MIRAGE WU14K-J 132-012126-XX MIRAGE S+18K-J 132-013127-XX MIRAGE HD16K-J 132-014128-XX MIRAGE S+22K-J 132-016120-XX MIRAGE HD20K-J 132-017121-XX MIRAGE WU20K-J 132-018122-XX
Mirage J Series User Manual2-1020-100708-01 Rev. 1 (11-2011) 2 Operation 2.1 3D The Mirage J Series projector is capable of displaying stereoscopic 3D video sources. The Mirage J Series relies on additional hardware; such as stereo emitters and glasses to complete the display system. Images generated from a stereo 3D-video source consist of a series of images (frames) that alternate quickly between two slightly different view points, corresponding to your left and right eye. When these frames are displayed fast enough and viewed with special stereo glasses synchronized to the left/right (L/R) changes, the resulting image appears with the same depth and perspective that is sensed in the real world. NOTE: The type of special glasses can be active stereo or passive stereo glasses depending on the type of stereo controllers and screen used. 2.1.1 Requirements Stereo 3D applications require a stereo 3D-capable source, special hardware/software setups (described below), the 3D Settings menu option to control the projector processing, synchronizing and displaying of your stereoscopic 3D source material. Hardware: • Christie 3D version of Mirage J Series projector. • Christie 3D Stereo Sync Cable (required for 3D Mirage J Series models; ensures minimum frame delay). This General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) cable is standard with all Mirage J Series projectors. NOTE: See Appendix B: GPIO. • A source, usually a computer with a stereo 3D graphics card capable of displaying progressive scan (alternating frames) of OpenGL quad buffered stereo 3D applications (suggested cards include ATI or NVIDIA), and running under Windows, Linux, IRIX, HPUX, OSX or Solaris operating systems. • Emitter for controlling active shutter glasses. • An appropriate qualified device that mounts in front of the lens of the projector that will process the light from the lens into a passive polarized light. Contact your Immersive dealer for more information. Software or content: • Any 3D computer software that supports active or sequential 3D stereo on a supported computer/graphic card. • A video stream from video source that has been prepared to be sequential content. Supports stereo signals prepared on either a compatible Dual and Single link HDSDI format. • Compatible passive dual channel sources, providing each signal type is frame locked and the input connections are identical.
2-2Mirage J Series User Manual020-100708-01 Rev. 1 (11-2011) Section 3: Operation CONNECTING THE 3D STEREO SYNC CABLE This GPIO cable provides the means for synchronizing the various components in your 3D system. Your source, projector display output, and emitters or 3D passive filter system can then operate together with precision to minimize cross-talk and color artifacts. Connect as shown below. NOTE: For Mirage J Series models, inputs A and B are not required, but recommended to ensure that stereo is configured correctly, especially for multiple projector setups. Connecting Two Stereo 3D Sync Inputs (Recommended for multiple sources). Connect your video card’s stereo 3D sync cable to either Input A or either Input B on the 3D Stereo Sync Cable. These inputs are provided to allow you to connect two different Stereo 3D sources and conveniently switch the display back- and-forth between them. Connecting One Stereo 3D Sync Output Connect the 3D Stereo Sync Cable output to your stereo 3D sync emitter or 3D passive filter system, PZE device. The L/R switching of the device can then be synchronized according to the controlling signal of choice—either the source input signal or the internally generated signal—as set in the 3D Settings menu.
