Description, Features and
Benefits
Vidikron’s Vision Model 140 and Model 150 bring our most advanced technology, 1080p
resolution and the world’s first THX
®
Certified home video products together in truly
awesome fashion.
The Vision 140/150 uses a new, ingeniously engineered 3-chip DLP™ light engine, combined
with an advanced Xenon LightAmp™ lamp illumination system to bring astoundingly high
performance and ultra-high resolution to the very best home theaters on the planet.
The Vision 140 features a 1000W Xenon lamp, while the Vision 150 uses a 1.2-kW Xenon lamp
to produce our brightest 1080p pictures ever. Four, high-precision zoom lenses are available
with broad motorized horizontal and vertical lens shift capability. Vidikron engineers have
ensured that light is efficiently culminated through the implementation of our advanced V2™
technology and have also engineered ISF™ calibration standards into these projectors.
The Vision 140/150 is furnished with Vidikron’s newest, next-generation, all-digital VHD
Controller, featuring advanced Imagix™ processing, superb scaling, and the industry’s most
advanced aspect ratio control system.
For uncompromising widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope”
(2.35:1) format, the Vision 140/150 can be equipped with Vidikron’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 Vision 140/150 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.
