Sim2 GRAND CINEMA C3X User Manual download pdf (Page 2)

Simply the world’s smallest,

top performing 3-chip projector

for home theater applications.

A home theater creates an exclusive domain

within your living space, where you’re immersed

in a total entertainment experience.

This is best achieved by using a 3-chip DLP™

technology-based projector, that offers the best

result in front projection applications.

SIM2’s Grand Cinema™ C3X series - featuring

three models, namely C3X, C3X LINK and C3X

LITE - has been created to fulfill the needs and

dreams of discerning customers seeking to enjoy

a truly high end “ultimate real cinema experience”.

All of this from the smallest, lightest and most

elegant 3-chip projector ever made.

This was achieved after a lengthy, thorough

study of projector design and significant

investment in R&D.

The Grand Cinema™ C3X is not just another

3-chip projector line! SIM2’s engine and electronic

solutions make the difference! SIM2’s R&D

inventive has made it possible to reduce the

size and increase performance of this 3-chip

design, creating such a sophisticated and

innovative product line.

COMPACT 3-CHIP DLP™-BASED LIGHT ENGINE

BY SIM2: The core and most critical component

in a Home Cinema Front Projection unit has always

been its light engine. Image accuracy of a projector

is governed by the quality of this piece of precision

optical engineering. A delicate balance is required

between light engine, DLP™ chipset and control

electronics, in order to optimize the performance

of each. Building on its heritage of high-end light

engine design, SIM2 developed a new innovative

system to re-size the illumination optical path while

maintaining BOTH its length (necessary for correct

picture aberration control) AND its compactness

(required for installation and interior-design constraints).

This folded light path, patented and named ALPHA

Path™, is the result of SIM2’s advanced R&D optical

and thermal analysis. Perfect management of the

internal light path, without any kind of scattering or

thermal dispersion, is achieved by utilizing a special

coating on the inner surface, together with the prisms’

TIR (Total Internal Reflection) control and optimized

Relay Optics. SIM2 customized optical components:

lenses and prisms. This combination defines the

amazing contrast ratio achieved by the C3X line.

EXTRAORDINARY VIBRANT COLORS AND TRUE

BLACKS: The Grand Cinema™ C3X blends

outstanding sharpness and image stability with terrific

black depth and contrast. The DarkChip™3, coupled

with SIM2’s light engine, offers an excellent contrast

(6500:1 typical for the C3X and C3X LINK models and

5500:1 typical for the C3X LITE) and image richness:

it paints an ink deep blacks, colors are stunning, each

shade drenched in eye-catching opulence.

Sometimes meeting customers' needs is as simple

as knowing the right tool to use; Progressive scan

support from any incoming signal is provided by the

latest deinterlacer and video enhancer.

LAMP

A basic feature of SIM2’s system

is its neat compact structure,

which is obtained by overlapping

the optical light-path to the

projection lens (hence the name

of ALPHA-type structure).

THREE-CHIP SYSTEM:

HOW IT WORKS AND ADVANTAGES

DLP™ technology-enabled projectors for very high image quality or high

brightness applications such as cinema and large venue displays rely

on a 3-DMD-chip configuration to produce stunning images, whether

moving or still. In a 3-chip system, the white light generated by the lamp

passes through a prism that divides it into red, green and blue.

Each DMD chip is dedicated to one of these three colors; the colored

light that the micromirrors reflect is then combined and passed through

the projection lens to form an image.

RAYTRACING

The picture illustrates raytracing used to identify stray light sources

inside the optical path and prism assembly. Accurate simulations

modeling ON and OFF DMD states and coating on prisms surfaces

have been performed to evaluate DMD diffraction and risk of ghost

images, as well as to optimize contrast. Color splitting

and recombining has been fully modeled to guarantee highest

efficiency and purity of colors.
