For remote control Remote control [1] Batteries (size AA/R6) [2] The other main features you'll enjoy · Compatible with following various color systems: ­ NTSC (U.S. and Canada standard) ­ PAL (Western Europe standard) ­ SECAM (France and Eastern Europe standard) ­ NTSC4.43 (Middle East standard) · (U2-1150) Superior brightness of 1500 ANSI lumens, the size of an A4 size/letter size piece of paper, and weighing only 2.6 kilograms/5.7 lbs. (U2-X1130/U2-813) Superior brightness of 1300 ANSI lumens, the size of an A4 size/letter size piece of paper, and weighing only 2.5 kilograms/5.6 lbs. Using TI's Digital Mirror Device (DMD) and our own optical design we have developed a geometric effect that increases the light usage efficiency. By increasing the light usage efficiency we can better reproduce the three basic colors (RGB) required for color reproduction on a single DMD. This means superior brightness, smaller size, and lighter weight. · Sharp, clear images There is no RGB color separation, and the spaces between the individual pixels are not noticeable. That means sharp and clear reproduction of small characters and figures. Take a closer look and notice the difference in quality! · Outstanding sharp, clear, 3D like images with vivid colors when reproducing DVD video and other high picture-quality data/video sources Faithful gray scale reproduction makes for more natural image displays. DVD and other high quality image sources bring out the true display capacity of the unit. · Screen not distorted to a trapezoid (keystoning) when projecting to the height of the line of vision Because the projection position is already set to the height of the line of vision, there is no keystoning effect. Even when projecting above or under the height of the line of vision, image distortion (if any) can be adjusted using the keystone correction function. · (U2-1150, U2-X1130) Fully compatible with true XGA; support for SXGA using advanced intelligent compression technology The advanced intelligent compression technology enables these projectors to present clear compression SXGA images without any line omission. (U2-813) Fully compatible with true S-VGA; support for XGA using advanced intelligent compression technology The advanced intelligent compression technology enables it to present clear compression XGA images without any line omission. · A remote control that can operate the PC or Macintosh The supplied remote control both operates the unit and acts as a wireless mouse control to operate the PC or Macintosh connected to the unit. · The compact and easy to carry cabinet with its contemporary design complements any office, board room, or auditorium.
