DLP Background

DLP® technology is a highly reliable, digital display technology that delivers a high definition picture across a broad range of products, including large screen HDTVs and projectors for business, home, professional venues and digital cinema (DLP Cinema®). More than 50 companies, representing virtually all of the world's top projection and display manufacturers, have products based on DLP technology.

Offering an incredibly clear, bright and sharp picture, DLP technology is one of the most versatile display technologies on the market. It is the only technology that can enable the world’s smallest projectors under a pound, and light up the largest movie screens up to 75 feet.

DLP technology has experienced increased momentum and marketshare with the following applications:

DLP Pico Projectors
: By taking the same technology found in their HDTVs and projectors and shrinking it to the size of a raisin, DLP has seen unprecedented success with adoption of their Pico chipset technology. DLP’s Pico chipset technology has enabled leading partners including Dell, Optoma, Samsung and others to embed the ultra tiny DLP Pico projector chipset into handheld devices, notebook accessories, toys, and smartphones, instantly turning any situation into a media viewing opportunity.
DLP Projectors for Business, Home, and the Classroom
: DLP technology has set the standard for enabling the most innovative projectors on the market, offering unique form factors, light weight, high brightness, and affordability. All DLP projectors exude outstanding image quality and unmatched picture reliability. In June 2008, DLP announced the world’s first lamp free LED home theater projector along with the first-ever 3D front projector. Building on last year’s announcement, this June DLP enhanced interactive learning in classrooms and conference rooms by announcing the capability of 3D and LED display in data projectors.
DLP HDTVs
: Large screen HDTVs featuring DLP technology deliver stellar picture quality with a unique combination of small, light, slim and elegant product designs that are surprisingly affordable. With close to one million homes with DLP 3-D and DualView enabled televisions, partners deliver enhanced viewing experiences to their consumers. The latest implementation of these technologies can be found in the Mitsubishi LaserVue, which is the first laser-powered television and using less than one-third the power of Plasma and LCD offerings.
DLP Cinema®
: Supported by Hollywood directors, producers and studios, DLP Cinema is the leader in transitioning the cinema industry from film to digital projector technology and 3D innovation in a single projector solution. Acknowledged for its incredible image quality including brightness that can illuminate the largest auditoriums, precise DCI compliant colors and superior contrast ratios, DLP substantially reduces cross-talk (ghosting) and other issues competing technologies cannot. DLP Cinema projection technology is installed in over 14,000 screens worldwide with over 7,000 screens that offer digital 3D viewing. Since last year’s introduction, IMAX® digital projection systems powered by DLP Cinema projectors have reached a total of 117 locations worldwide. In March 2009, DLP announced the next generation DLP Cinema Electronics Platform providing a lower cost solution and integrating live 3-D broadcasting.

With over 20 million DLP sub-systems shipped since 1996, DLP is a proven technology in the marketplace. TI continues to innovate to bring the best products at the best price to DLP customers.
