AUDio, DvD and BLU-RAY™ PROJECTORS

Hollywood continues to produce and release 3D movies that give us

an entirely new level of dynamic realism. The PT-AE7000 Full HD 3D

Home Cinema Projector was developed according to the Panasonic

philosophy of providing images that mirror the director’s artistic

vision and intent—right in your own home. The PT-AE7000 has also

been redesigned from the ground up to achieve higher basic 2D

performance, and packed with unique 3D features to deliver the level

of quality demanded by Hollywood professionals.

The PT-AE7000 and optional Panasonic active 3D Eyewear are finely tuned to achieve 3D viewing with Hollywood-like quality.

LCD Panels Driven at 480Hz and Original Overdrive TechnologyforClear3D ImageThe PT-AE7000 features 480Hz-driven LCD panels, which lengthen the time that the shutter is open about 1.5 times the duration of a 240-Hz drive system. Together with Panasonic’s original high-precision overdrive tech-nology, this improves the brightness of the images viewed through 3D Eyewear, while at the same time minimizing crosstalk, or double image seen as a result of the left image entering the right eye and vice versa.

Customization and Installation FlexibilityIntelligentLensMemorywithAutoDetectionUp to six settings can be stored in the Lens Memory, including zoom and focus positions for projecting in the normal 16:9 or 4:3 image ratio, and wide cinema projection settings. These memories can be recalled manually or can be set for automatic switching. The projector is able to detect 2.35:1 and 16:9 source and retrieve the stored setting auto-matically. This Lens Memory function lets you easily enjoy images with different image ratios on a wide 2.35:1 screen for an immersive movie theater-like experience.

2xOpticalPowerZoom/FocusandWideLensShiftRangeA 2x optical power zoom/focus lens and a lens shift function together make it possible to project a 120-inch picture from as close as 3.6 meters (11 feet 10 inches) to the screen or as far as 7.2 meters (23 feet 7 inches) away. In addition, the image can be shifted ±100% vertically, and ±26% horizontally. This gives you outstanding setup flexibility. If you choose to ceiling-mount the projector, you can zoom and focus by remote control.

3DPictureBalancewithWaveformMonitorThe projector is able to show the right and left image side by side to check if the two sides have the same colours. The difference may occur due to poor content quality. With the Waveform Monitor displayed, you can adjust the contrast, brightness, colour and tint as desired, and up to three adjustment settings can be stored in memory for instant recall.

FrameCreation2forMotionBlurReduction in3D/2DViewingA double-speed frame interpolation display for 2D viewing, and also in 3D viewing, greatly improves the clarity of motion images, reproducing sharp and clear images for fast moving scenes in sports and action movies. For 24p signal input, four frames are calculated and interpolated for each existing frame, to enable 5x speed (120-Hz) display.

AbundantConnectionTerminals• HDMI™withx.v.Colour™andDeepColour The PT-AE7000 has three HDMI input terminals for digital transmission

without image degradation. The HDMI input terminals also support Deep Colour and the x.v.Colour colour space. Deep Colour provides 10-bit (over 1.07 billion) and 12-bit (over 68.7 billion) colour depths for smooth gradation between colours, while x.v.Colour compliance reproduces natural, lifelike images.*6

• Programmable12VTriggerforAutomatedTheaterSetup Two 12V triggers are provided.*7 Since the input and output can be set

independently (menu selectable), they can link flexibly with powered screens, room light and powered curtains. When combined with the Intel-ligent Lens Memory, they let you create a truly classy home theater.

Dynamic IrisProAddsBeauty toBothDarkandBrightScenesThis intelligent iris system works by analyzing the brightness level of each image using a histogram, then adjusting the lamp power, iris and gamma curve*3 accordingly to create the ideal image. The adjustments are made virtually frame by frame. This helps the projector achieve a wide dynamic range with swift smoothness for added beauty in both dark and bright scenes.

SmoothScreenTechnologyCreatesFilm-LikeTextureWhile many LCD projectors suffer from a “chicken wire” effect, Panasonic’s pursuit of the highest possible image quality has success-fully overcome this device limitation through the incorporation of Smooth Screen technology. This uses the dou-ble refraction property of crystals to arrange pixels on a screen with no gaps between them.

Conventional: Black lines between pixels mar picture quality.

Full High-Definition Home Cinema ProjectorPT-AR100

Bring the Action HomeThe PT-AR100 lets friends and family enjoy Full-HD large-screen entertainment—from movies and sports to video games. Panasonic’s advanced technologies bring crisp images even in daytime brightness, and improve colour reproduction accuracy in movies, to deliver images with a refined Hollywood tuning technology. Whether it is used for a house party filled with friends or for family movie night, the PT-AR100 will keep you and your guests engaged in the story and action through its stunning image quality.

2,800-lmBrightness fromNewlyDeveloped280-WRed-RichLampThe PT-AR100 projector produces bright, sharp images by employing a new, high-power 280-W Red-Rich Lamp and optical unit that combine to generate 2,800 lm of brightness for comfortable viewing in various lighting conditions.

DetailClarityProcessor3GivesNaturalClarity toEven theFinestDetailsThis digital image processing circuit brings greater clarity and sharpness to details, by reproducing fine nuances that were lost due to image compression. After a two dimensional analysis of the video signal’s frequency in each scene, the new circuit optimizes the sharpness of each image portion based on the extracted information. The resulting images have a more natural, lifelike expres-sion than those of previous image-processing methods. The detection of super-high-frequency image components also enables

Superb Picture Quality

LightHarmonizer3ProducesQualityPicturesinVariousLightingsTogether with 2,800 lm of brightness, Panasonic’s Light Harmonizer 3 technology assists the versatile use of the projector by automatically adjusting the picture quality of the image to match the living room or theater room conditions. This is made possible by utilizing built-in ambient light and colour sensors that adjust the white balance, gamma curve, and sharpness settings to maintain bright, crisp pictures that match the viewing environ-ment.

DynamicIrisProDeliversHigh50,000:1ContrastRatioforDeepBlacksThis intelligent iris system works by analyzing the brightness level of each image using a histogram, then adjusting the lamp power, iris and gamma curve accordingly to create the ideal image. The adjustments are made virtually frame by frame. This achieves an astounding contrast ratio of 50,000:1, providing a wide dynamic range with swift smoothness for added beauty in both dark and bright scenes.

Conventional sharpness control: Sharpness is applied uniformly, which can cause a halo or ring effect.

Detail Clarity Processor 3: Signal frequency is extracted realtime and necessary sharpness is applied at varying degrees for natural, lifelike images.

WaveformMonitor forPreciseCalibrationWhen the output level of the source device fluctuates due to the performance of the device or its cable connections, the original black and white levels of the image content cannot be reproduced. With the PT-AR100, you can view the waveforms on the screen and adjust the settings either automatically or manually as you prefer.

The PT-AR100 gives home consumers a projector with the kind of waveform monitor used in equipment for professionals.

2xOpticalZoomLensandWideLensShiftRangeThe 2x optical zoom lens provides a wide throw range, and the image can be shifted ±65% vertically and ±26% horizontally. This outstanding level of setup flexibility lets you enjoy large-screen viewing in different-sized rooms. Position it on a table in front of you, suspend it from the ceiling, or place it on a bookshelf behind you.

AbundantConnectionTerminals• HDMI™withx.v.Colour™andDeepColour The PT-AR100 has two HDMI input terminals for digital transmission without image degradation. The HDMI input terminals also support Deep Colour and

the x.v.Colour colour space of the 1.3 standard. Deep Colour provides 10-bit (over 1.07 billion) and 12-bit (over 68.7 billion) colour depths for smooth grada-tion between colours, while x.v.Colour compliance reproduces natural, lifelike images.
