Panasonic projectors address immersive sector
- Details
“With consumer behaviour changing, location-based entertainment (LBE) brands and destinations will need to compete with bigger and more stunning attractions to bring visitors back into venues,” said Hartmut Kulessa, European marketing manager at Panasonic Business. “Immersive digital experiences will play a huge part in this transition. With its spellbinding picture quality and expanded colour gamut, compact body and simplified workflow, the PT-RQ35K Series is the ideal projector for creating the enhanced in-person experiences that LBE venues need.”
Despite its powerful capabilities, the RQ35K Series is billed as the world’s smallest and lightest projector in its class. At 40% smaller than the current RQ32K projector, it can easily be transported, stacked and installed by two people. Once in place, the series has a host of features that ease set-up.
Smart Projector Control, using NFC, enables the installer to prepare for set-up via an app on their mobile phone without plugging in the projector. Remote Preview is a time saving feature that allows projectionists to check for signal image and content via a web browser or app with the projector still in standby and shutter on.
The need for content editing to eliminate colour banding is also removed with the introduction of the Gradation Smoother function. Operators can select three levels of image correction appropriate to the severity of the problem, or disable the function when it’s not needed. A high visibility Information Monitor on the projector further simplifies set-up and operation and displays errors in real-time for faster response.
The series also comes with optional Geometry Manager Pro software pre-installed for those that need bitmap masking and to automatically and simultaneously calibrate edge-blends using an external camera.
