The JVC DLA-Z1 laser projector, first on the market with THX 4K certification

To achieve this demanding certification, the team passed hundreds of tests in the THX laboratory to prove compliance with the rigorous performance standards demanded and ensure that the visual content was the same as its author conceived when producing it..

JVC has announced that its DLA-Z1 projector is now THX 4K certified, which accredits it as the first team on the market to obtain the highest rating for a team of these characteristics by the THX consortium, after passing not only 4K tests, but also those corresponding to THX HD.

JVC's new DLA-Z1 features a new native D-ILA 4K device and a laser source with dynamic light intensity control to deliver high brightness and high-contrast images.

To achieve THX certification, the projector had to pass hundreds of tests in the THX laboratory, developed to prove compliance with the rigorous performance standards that this consortium demands to ensure that the visual content responds perfectly to what its author conceived when producing it.

As part of this certification, the projector features several THX-specific display modes to deliver near-cinematic performance. To do this, it combines a new native D-ILA 4K device together with JVC's BLU-Escent laser technology., providing a brightness level of 3.000 lumens and an operating life of 20.000 hours. In addition, new laser light source dynamically controls light intensity to generate infinite dynamic contrast.

In addition, the equipment supports HDR and incorporates a new high-resolution lens developed specifically for 4K applications and a filter for cinema images that accommodates a wider color spectrum.
