Projectors for all Venues and Applications

Panasonic announced several new projectors and the new ET-MWP100G Multi Window Processor at InfoComm 2013, in addition to showcasing some of its other recently announced products. The projectors include:

PT-RZ475U: The PT-RZ475U is an expansion of the lamp-free projection lineup, features fixed short throw lens and employs new laser/LED light-sourced projector technology that depending on the setting can run 24/7 for up to ten years (87,000 hours), without lamp or filter maintenance. It is also 3D compatible, can be used in portrait mode and is equipped with DIGITAL LINK a feature that when connected to a compatible switcher, makes it possible to transmit AV content and control signals via a single CAT5e cable or higher up to 328 ft!

PT-DZ870U Series and DLE030 Ultra Short-Throw Lens : The PT-DZ870UK is the industry's brightest single chip DLP projector1, offering 8,500 lumens, WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution, a contrast ratio of 10,000:1 as well as Panasonic's proprietary new Dynamic RGB Booster, which optimises lamp intensity of individual red, green and blue colors according to each image. The series is comprised of the PT-DZ870UK, the PT-DW830UK and the PT-DX100UK, and when paired with the optional ET-DLE030 ultra short throw lens, are able to project a 100-inch image from 2.7ft away.

PT-CW330 Ultra Short-Throw Series: With up to 3,100 lumens and a contrast ratio of 8,000:1, the new portable, ultra-short throw PT-CW330 Series produces bright, crisp, clear images and includes interactive models. These projectors are able to generate an 80-inch diagonal image from less than two feet from lens to screen, delivering large image projection in confined spaces, without distracting shadows cast by presenters.

Professional Displays and Digital Signage

At InfoComm2013, Panasonic added a number of new displays to its already expansive line of professional plasma, LCD and LED displays. This year, additions include:

Panasonic Interactive Displays: Panasonic Interactive Displays increase collaboration and foster idea sharing by combining whiteboard-style collaborative functions with Panasonic's renowned high definition displays taking group learning and teamwork to a new level in both classroom and business applications. The PB1 Series, available in 103-inch and 85-inch, delivers interactivity in large format, while the PB2 Series, available in 65-inch and 50-inch, features both pen and finger touch capability. These displays feature a Digital Pen System, which enables users to write, annotate and move items around the screen with pixel by pixel accuracy.

LFX6: The Panasonic 47-inch ruggedized and weatherproof TH-47LFX6U professional LCD display, with a full 1,000 cd/m2 of brightness and IP44-level dust and water resistance, is distinguished in its ability to operate efficiently in harsh environmental conditions such as heat, humidity, extreme cold and high brightness. The LFX also incorporates a unique cooling system so it can operate while placed in direct sunlight where a typical LCD suffers from image blackout issues. This display also features a corrosion-resistant aluminum cabinet and tempered glass that allows for safe outdoor use. Unlike most outdoor displays, which require separate bulky and expensive enclosures, the LFX6 requires none. Those types of enclosures require both heating and cooling elements which make them less reliable and far less energy efficient. The display features a wide range of versatile functions, including DIGITAL LINK.

LFV50: The 55-inch TH55LFV50U ultra-narrow bezel LED display is ideal for video wall applications, with a bezel width of two adjacent displays measuring a mere 5.3mm (0.2 inches). The display features a brightness of 800 cd/m2, making it ideal for areas with very bright ambient lighting. Additionally, the incorporation of an IPS Panel makes
