JVC's 8K4K D-ILA chip enables one display to produce Super Hi-Vision images

by Darren Murph, posted May 2nd 2008 at 8:28AM


Well, excuse us very much. JVC just came storming through like a model on a runway with its all new D-ILA chip, and you can bet it's worthy of paying attention to. Just under a year after the firm unveiled its 4K2K D-ILA chip, it's now trumpeting the almighty 1.75-inch 8K4K, which touts the "world's highest 35-megapixel pixel count," which is roughly equal to 17x full HD resolution. Not impressive enough for you? It also gives whatever projector it's in the ability to display Super Hi-Vision imagery all by its lonesome. Sadly, JVC left us hanging when it came to finding out when this gem would be available in consumer wares, but there's still a few trade shows left to go this year for it to make an appearance.

DreamBee 1080p projector could double as alien probe

by Erik Hanson, posted Jul 17th 2007 at 2:21AM

DreamVision DreamBee D-ILA Projector and War of the Worlds probeDreamVision has released a 1080p D-ILA-based projector called the DreamBee, which boasts a 15,000:1 contrast ratio, and 1000 lumens of brightness. The oddly-War of the Worlds-shaped projector includes an RS-232 port and a pair of HDMI inputs, with the usual analog video and audio connectors, and retails for $14,000. The DreamBee Pro model adds another pair of HDMI ports, along with an external scaler for source management, and is priced at $19,000. Both models are available in colors like midnight, coconut, blue sky, hibiscus, and sunflower. No word on the possibility of a custom "red alien weed" color, or whether the controls are tentacle-friendly.

JVC designs tiny 4k D-ILA chip

JVC 1.27-inch 4K2K D-ILA chipJVC announced at InfoComm 2007 a 1.27-inch 4K2K D-ILA chip for use in projectors that offer up more than four times high-definition resolution. Intended initially for medical, modeling, and simulation use, the chip can produce a ten-megapixel 4096x2400 pixel image with a 20,000:1 contrast ratio. While DLP-based 4K 2K projectors are currently in use in some digital cinemas, the JVC chip will be used in D-ILA, a variant of LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon), and has a higher pixel density. Much like professional racing technologies trickle down to the average sedan on the street, the research that goes into 4K projectors can also make their way to HDTVs in the home, bringing smaller, higher-definition sets to a living room near you. We say bring on the quad-split-screen HD!

Edit: Texas Instruments informs me that they do not offer any 4K DLP cinema projectors, only 2K (1080p).

Newest JVC Victor 1080p 52-inch D-ILA -- HD-52MH700

Check out this JVC's newest 1080p D-ILA based rear-projection HDTV. Before you get all excited, this unit is for their Victor line, which isn't available here in the States. It's still a great TV though and is powered their LCoS variant called D-ILA which can produce everyones favorite resolution of 1,920 x 1,080. The set is ran by JVC's GENESSA chip that claims to be great at scaling and noise reduction. Most people should be happy with the array of inputs on the guy that includes two HDMI ports, one component, three S-Video, four composites, one VGA, two i.LINK and even the rare center channel input. The set doesn't seem to shabby and our friends across the Pacific should really enjoy the set and the 500,000 Yen ($4,348 USD) price.

1080p D-ILA projector by JVC - DLA-HD10K

JVC has nice looking projector set to come out to the Japanese market sometime soon. For ¥1,440,000 ( $12,500) you get a full 1080p, D-ILA based projector that would be great for a dedicated home theater setup. The projector's brightness is only 600 lumens so you really need to watch the ambient lighting with this guy. It makes up for it though with a decent 2,500:1 contrast ratio and a high resolution of 2048 x 1536. This unit will be available on July 1st.
