Photo: Dreamvision Siglos Projector Raising the standards of picture quality The most important novelty is that the new three-chip system used on the Siglos Series can now receive 3840x2160 pixels 4K. Using the latest technological innovations, Dreamvision has achieved a 60,000:1 (Siglos Family and Siglos1), Page 1 of 7

Besides, a new Dynamic Iris function is now available on models 1, 2 and 3, which x10 the native contrast. Reaching 1,300 ANSI lumens in normal mode, the Siglos can now accommodate wider screens and brightness-demanding 3D technology. In addition to jaw-dropping clarity and detail, the Siglos Series also deliver more accurate color reproduction within billion color graduations for lifelike realism (12 bits/color Deep Color TM ). The 400Hz Crystal Motion algorithm is a new frame interpolation method which brings an immersive experience to sport, concerts, TV shows. Picture becomes dramatically realistic and three-dimensional, without motion blur or artifacts. Obviously, the Siglos Series is not dedicated to watching singers or footballers only. Thanks to a new very pure optical lens, the Siglos Series create a new standard in dark colors rendition. When watching a movie, black is really black, but with a lot more details in the same time. The Siglos have been particularly engineered this way and implement Dreamvision s new True Cinema Black III enhancement. With the Siglos Series, 3D projection at home now becomes a reality For the Dreamvision R&D team it is important to do 3D the right way, without sacrificing the performance with regular 2D content. Therefore the Dreamvision team has improved two of its famous 3D packs: the RF (Radio-Frequency) Active 3D packs and the Passive 3D packs. The historical IR (infra-red) active 3D pack is still available, but only on the Siglos Family Limited Edition. In the new RF Active 3D pack, which now becomes the regular pack, the wired RF hub has been replaced with a small dongle that you plug on the back of the Page 2 of 7

It adopts fast-response liquid crystal lenses to create the best image quality without ghosting wherever you sit, higher brightness, more natural colors and great durability. Weighing only 57 gr (2 oz), its ergonomic design offers optimal comfort for everyone. Icing on the cake, these new glasses are now also compatible with polarized screens, such as our 5D and Super 5D screens. The supplied 3D kit allows easy integration in a few minutes time.

First of all, the passive 3D glasses are lighter (around 10g), less expensive and more comfortable. Besides, the picture quality is spectacularly improved: more brightness, more details and more accurate colors. The spectators feel less dizziness, eye strain and headache than with active 3D solutions. Last but not least, because it does not require stacking two projectors together, the overall budget of the Dreamvision solution is much lower than with competitors passive 3D solutions. It works like a charm with the 5D and Super 5D screens which have been developed by Dreamvision specifically for the Siglos passive 3D system. All in all, the Dreamvision Siglos projectors and their dedicated 3D Kit are definitely the best compromise on the marketplace for picture quality, brightness/colors and comfort. Page 3 of 7
