New 6-Color Projection Wheel for Richer and Brighter Color Reproduction LV-WX320 and LV-X320 utilize the popular DLP technology to project images. While DLP projectors commonly use a 4-color wheel to project colors, the new projectors add cyan and yellow to the mix, creating a new 6-color wheel for expanded color space and achieve richer and brighter color reproduction. Coupled with BrilliantColor technology which uses a new color-processing algorithm to ensure more realistic and precise colors, a more enjoyable photo and movie viewing experience is guaranteed.

This expands the realm of projection applications, and is useful for education, product promotion and entertainment purposes. When a 3D content capable system such as a 3D Blu-ray player is connected to the projectors, users can enjoy crisp and vivid 3D images and movies simply with a pair of DLP-Link 3D glasses. Compact Design for Added Mobility LV-WX320 and LV-X320 feature a compact body weighing only 2.5kg, making them not only perfect for office use but also on-the-go users who need to work off-site or travel a lot. Extra-long 6,000 Hours Lamp Life LV-WX320 and LV-X320 engage a new lamp system to offer long-lasting lamp life, amounting to 6,000 hours when used in Eco mode.
