    Description, Features 
    and Benefits
    The RS-900 DLP Projector offers the astounding picture quality and versatility heretofore 
    associated with more expensive projectors. Their 1920 x 1080 native resolution DLP light 
    engine features Runcos powerful SuperOnyx™ technology for bright, pristine 
    high-definition (1080p) images.
    Contrast ratio and dynamic range extend to new heights with Runcos exclusive, 
    electronically-controlled iris system. 
    The RS-900 is equipped with a precision optics package featuring electronic lens shift and 
    a throw range of 1.87 to 2.20 times the screen width. 
    The RS-900s illumination system provides two light intensity levels to allow maximum 
    flexibility for screen size, ambient light conditions, brightness and contrast balance, and 
    lamp life preservation. It also has a newly refined cooling system, which increases 
    efficiency and reduces noise levels.
    The RS-900 has been engineered to comply with Imaging Science Foundation™ (ISF) 
    standards for maximum home theater image quality. Runcos sophisticated parameters 
    for white balance and color gamut control have also been implemented for precise 
    balance of gray scale and color. The RS-900 incorporates Runco-proprietary 
    de-interlacing technology that provides exceptional scaling and film-to-video (3:2 
    pulldown) conversion for the most artifact-free images possible. 
    For uncompromising widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope” 
    (2.35:1) format, the RS-900 can be equipped with Runco’s patent-pending CineWide™ 
    technology, a combination of software, electronics and high-quality anamorphic optics. 
    CineWide 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 2.35:1, the image simply 
    gets wider while full height is maintained. Also available with the RS-900 is CineWide with 
    AutoScope™, an enhanced, remote-controlled motorized version of CineWide.
    Discrete IR and RS-232 control make custom installation seamless, while discrete source 
    and aspect ratio selection accommodate any automation control system. 
    CineWide requires the use of a 2.35:1 or similar aspect ratio superwide 
    format screen.Note
