Next-generation projection

Digital Projection has launched its Nexus “next-generation” electronics platform which has been designed to deliver advanced image processing to all projectors including the Titan, M-Vision and E-Vision. The platform offers users the familiarity of its operation, OSD menu structure and functionality, all of which are integrated into the new Projector Control II software.

Key features include enhanced multifunctional image processing technology, with de-interlacing, scaling, warping and edge-blending, all combined in a single IC, a built-in warp-table generator which implements real-time processing for horizontal and vertical keystone correction as well as pincushion and barrel, wall corner correction and linearity correction. Alongside this, the platform can also accept dual input signals up to 4K UHD which are independently processed. Advanced onboard edge blending is said to work seamlessly with the Projector Controller II software, enabling multi-projector blends by way of high bit depth processing that provides a continuous image created from multiple projectors.

HDR support comes as standard with support for SMPTE ST2084(PQ) and HLG. 10-bit colour processing (30 bits per pixel) produces 1,073,741,824 colours with seven-point colour correction for accurate colour matching which reportedly produces lifelike, saturated images. There is also full image quality control onboard with full-gamma colour management, allowing the implementation of key features such as constant brightness output, node-based fine-tuning of colour uniformity and multi-projector auto brightness sync.

Art-Net support is now included in all the projectors with the new platform, enabling them to fit into show control systems and be controlled alongside DMX installations.
