Sony Announces 3D Adapter Unit

Sony has recently announced their latest innovation, a single-projector 3D adaptor. This adapter is designed to work with all Sony 4K movie theater projectors, especially the SXR-RS220. The unit uses the full height of Sony’s 4K imaging device and displays 2K images to each eye simultaneously. The adapter has two new lens units, LKRL-A002 and LKRL-A003. Both units have an optical and a mechanical assembly for each eye image. Both units are designed to meet DCI specifications for 3D digital projection. The SRX-R2200 projector features 18000 ANSI lumens, a 2000:1 contrast ratio and a 4096 x 2160 resolution. It also comes with an integrated media block that enables the projector to achieve 4:4:4 RGB signals. The system is designed to allow movie theaters the flexibility to switch between 4K and 3D content. The 3D adapter will be available in March 2009, but unfortunately the retail price has not been announced.
