Digital Projection International (DPI), Texas Instruments’ first DL\
P™ partner and the 
original innovator of the 3-chip DLP™ projector, proudly introduces the flagship of our 
Reference Series displays, the LIGHTNING Reference 1080p 3D.
Based on the same rugged, mechanically capable chassis as our highly acc\
laimed 
LIGHTNING Pro-Series II commercial products,  the new LIGHTNING Reference 1080p 
3D employs the latest in Texas Instruments’ Dark Chip 1080p DLP
TM technology, and is 
equipped with DPI’s newest imaging innovations, including our exclusive ColorMaxTM 
calibration system, rendering deeply saturated, color-accurate imagery w\
hich is 
simultaneously true to life and powerfully immersive.  When considered a\
long with the 
6000-10000 ANSI lumen brightness and astounding 5000:1 contrast performance, the 
LIGHTNING Reference 1080p 3D represents the absolute ultimate in large-scale home 
entertainment displays – suitable for nearly any venue and any screen size.   
In  addition  to  the  active  3D  capability,  the  LIGHTNING  Reference  1080p  3D  also 
includes DP’s new FastFrame™ technology, a revolutionary combination of hardware 
and firmware that vastly reduces the artifacts and image blur typically \
associated with 
rapidly moving displayed content. The benefits of FastFrame™ are especially important 
for high-speed sports and action footage where maintaining the visual in\
tegrity of high-
speed imagery is vital.
The  LIGHTNING  Reference  1080p  3D  projector  also  incorporates  DPI’s  Hyper-Cooled 
lamp module, one of our CoolTek™ innovations. Engineered with a propr\
ietary, 
directional-flow  reflector  mask  and  radial  heat  exchanger,  the  Hyper-Cooled  module 
dramatically improves projector thermal characteristics and extends reflector life and 
lumen maintenance.  In turn, these operating benefits provide a significant reduction to 
the long-term cost of ownership, while also enhancing component reliabil\
ity.  
Other key benefits of the LIGHTNING Reference 1080p 3D include:
•  High Bandwidth input >120Hz active stereoscopic DVI with no need for frame 
  doubling.  This capability extends the dynamic range up to 16 bit for im\
proved
  contrast and color gamut. 
Both single-pipe and dual-pipe 3D sources are supported.• Dual Flash Processing™(DFP) – Supports users wishing to distribute 3D content via   
  more traditional, 60 Hz formats with the option to frame-double their sources within
  the projector, via DFP.  When this option is selected, the input signal,\
 having been  
  processed and if necessary re-sized to map to the native resolution of the projector,   
  will also be frame-doubled to 120 Hz, and the doubled frames interleaved.  This
  produces imagery with the low flicker characteristics of a native 120 Hz source,
  but without the infrastructure costs associated with distributing and sw\
itching
  ultra-high bandwidth signals. 
•  Projector electronics which provide an interface to drive an infrared transmitter to   
  synchronize switching glasses with active displayed frames.  The user can elect
  either to pass through an external synch pulse, or to use the reference \
generated  
  internally by the projector.  Adjustments are provided to accommodate th\
e phase
  and dead time characteristics of different switching glasses.
•  FastFrame™ technology, a revolutionary combination of hardware and firmware
  that provides user adjustments to vastly reduce the artifacts and image \
blur
  typically associated with rapidly moving display content.  
•  DP’s NextGen electronics with class leading video de-interlacing. SD and HD
  sources are processed using auto 3:2 and 2:2 extraction.   
•  Minimal video delay from input to screen - as low as 1 frame, depending on source.
•  Eight user-selectable inputs including HDCP compliant DVI, plus SD/HD-SDI as standard. 
•   High bandwidth DVI inputs offer Single, Twin, Dual & Dual Twin DVI connectivity.
• MultiBlend™ – an advanced soft-edge capability for seamlessly mesh\
ing arrays of   
  projectors to create displays with ultra-high resolution or unusual aspe\
ct ratios.
•  Intelligent Lens Mount (ILM) - provides the ability for the user to pr\
ogram up to 10 
distinct  presets  for  lens  zoom,  focus  and  shift.  The  ILM  presets  can  be  assigned  and 
automatically recalled, by source and input.
The  LIGHTNING  Reference  1080p  3D – the most powerful and intensely accurate 
immersive 3D display system, exclusively for exceptional large scale ima\
ging.  The 
LIGHTNING  Reference  3D  display  the  precision  of  Digital  Projection  to  your  legend-
ary home venue.
