FEATURES
◆ Their unique cooling system design prevents
annoying fan noise, and is rated at less than
30 dB.
◆ Supports a wide variety of video formats
including composite, S-Video, component
and DVI-I (digital and analog RGB). The two
component inputs are used to connect the
projector to HDTV receivers and DVD play-
ers. They use RCA connectors to minimize
signal degradation that may be caused by
installations that have longer cables.
◆ Using BenQ's proprietary de-interlacing
technology, the projector provides excep-
tional scaling and film-to-video (3:2 pull-
down) conversion for the most artifact-free
images possible.
◆ The Picture-In-Picture (PIP) and Picture-On-
Picture (POP) functions allow you to display
two inputs on the screen at the same time.
◆ Store up to three different configurations in
the projector’s video memories to optimize
the image for different types of signal.
◆ Multilingual on-screen display menus
◆ Includes BenQ’s product commitment-a free
first year “Xpress Xchange” program and a
three-year limited warranty.
Digital Home Theater Projectors
Designed from top to bottom as dedicated home cinema projectors,
the PE7700 and PE8720 feature proprietary BenQ video-processing
to support Texas Instruments’ W-Pal DLP chipset do deliver stable and
vivid images. They also incorporate revolutionary Senseye technology
allowing you to see the minute differences between even the most subtle
colors, as well as view live action both smoothly and flawlessly.
Your eyes feel everything. Just the way you do.
The PE7700 offers a brightness of 1100:1 lumens and 2500:1 contrast ratio for
lifelike color reproduction , while the PE8720 features 1000 lumens and an
incredible 10:000 contrast ratio. They are HDTV-ready with component inputs
and support S-Video, DVI, composite, component and progressive component
video (480i/p, 576i/p, 720p and 1080i). They also support NTSC, PAL, SECAM and
NTSC 4.3 video systems. They have native 16:9 resolution (1024 x 576 W-Pal) 3:2
pull-down recovery, 300Hz refresh rate, PIP/POP functions, P-Scan and Digital
Keystone correction for quick and easy set up. For installation versatility, a con-
nector panel provides three inputs in the “video group” and two inputs in the
“graphic group.”
Senseye Color Enhancement
Senseye Color Enhancement enables clear reproduction of even the subtlest colors such as
pastels and flesh tone. Senseye means better color saturation than standard RGB processors. The
color tones of the entire image are automatically assessed, adjusted, then reproduced with the
optimum color balance. The projectors’ advanced Golden Ratio Color Wheel provides high-grade
color reproduction, while a Specialized Color Wheel Coating delivers better color saturation on
Red and Blue than standard RGB (sRGB) without sacrificing green. The bottom line? Dark portions
look darker and bright portions look brighter producing a smoother, more film-like picture quality.
Senseye Motion Optimization
Senseye Motion Optimization raises their picture quality to new heights. One of the key factors
in flawless live action is the processing of the video from its native interlace form to high quality
progressive scan data. Their Angle-Motion Compensation removes stair-stepping on diagonal
moving images. The result is no jagged edges and natural-looking and flowing moving images.
To optimize the motion quality further, Intelligent Progressive Scan makes it possible to recreate
images with cinema-like quality. Senseye intelligently detects which areas have motion and
which areas do not. Then processes them differently to create smoother motion. Static areas are
meshed and areas where motion is detected are treated with a proprietary filtering technique
resulting in very high quality, progressive scan images. Intelligent Progressive Scan removes
jagged vertical edges and screen door effect to delivers smooth motion and flawless images.
Senseye Clarity Optimization reduces picture noise so images remain crystal clear across the
whole screen. Image "noise" can be detected and separated into different levels. Clarity
Optimization then distinguishes these different levels and then applies the correct Adaptive
Noise Reduction solution. So noise reduction can be achieved without over- sharpening or
clarity loss. All in all, this process significantly reduces noise reduction resulting in super crisp
video images.
