Description, Features
and Benefits
Runco’s LightStyle™ Series LS-12HBd Active 3D Projection System delivers exceptional
3D and 2D performance, sharing many of the technical attributes of the award-winning
LightStyle™ projector series. The LS-12HBd combines a powerful, three-chip DLP
®
engine and a wide array of lens options with Runco’s elegant LightStyle chassis design.
With the addition of the LS-12HBd to Runco’s 3D projection offerings, clients now have a
variety of exceptional 3D options to choose from based on their individual needs.
The LS-12HBd is a high-bright DLP
®
projector that delivers stunning, flawless video at a
scale unattainable by other display types, opening up new projector possibilities in the
home and excelling outside of the dedicated home theater, where environmental factors
such as lighting are not easily controlled.
Custom paint and print options with a myriad of color options are available with the
LS-12HBd, including an option to design your own one-of-a-kind projector with Runco
FinishPalette™. Beyond beautiful on the outside, the Runco LS-12HBd is feature-rich,
including advanced connectivity and the latest-generation video processing and scaling.
Rounding out this impressive projector are discrete input source, aspect ratio and power
on/off, as well as an RS-232 interface for seamless integration with automation control
systems.
Impressive and unique and unlike single-chip DLP implementations, no color wheel is
used in the LS-12HBd projectors. Instead, it harnesses the power of three advanced full
1080p HD 16:9 DMD’s™ and 12-degree mirror tilt for the finest black level performance.
The impressive brightness is further bolstered by the improved contrast capabilities of the
stylish LS-12HBd. Designed to excel in both the dedicated theater as well
“Flex-Theaters,” spaces where big screen entertainment is only a portion of the room’s
purpose and aesthetics and placement are as crucial as video performance.
For uncompromised widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the
CinemaScope™ 2:35:1 format, the LS-12HBd can also be paired with one of Runco’s
award-winning anamorphic lens solutions. Through an ingenious combination of software,
electronics and precision anamorphic optics, the Runco anamorphic lens system
maintains constant image height on the screen just as in a movie theater. When a viewer
transitions from 1.78:1 (16:9) program material to superwide 2.35:1, the image simply
gets wider while image height is maintained. The projection system is able to use the full
pixel array, thereby producing a 2.35:1 image with enhanced resolution and increased
brightness. No resolution or image area is lost to those black bars that contain no picture
information.
An anamorphic lens requires the use of a 2.35:1 (or similar aspect ratio),
“superwide” format screen.
