Three 0.95” DarkChip4 DMDs are utilised in this design to generate a picture resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels (1080p). The TEATRO 80 is equipped with a renewed optical system that coupled with SIM2’s dual-lamp system, delivers a superior contrast ratio of over 7,000:1 and a brightness of 4500 Ansi Lumens for crystal-clear, uncompressed HDTV images. The precision glass optics are used throughout the light engine of the TEATRO 80; the clarity, colour-uniformity and edge-to-edge focus capabilities of these specialised optical components are vital to the process of producing the clarity of on-screen images.

SIM2 offers six Super High Contrast (SHC) lens options for the TEATRO 80, ranging from fixed short-throw wide-angle (0.67:1) through to long-throw (4.16-6.96:1).

Motorised zoom, focus, and lens shift (vertical and horizontal) complete the package. As befits a high end projector, TEATRO 80 is equipped with the SIM2’s EasyCinema software, a PC-based calibration system, featuring full seven-point adjustment of primary, secondary and white point and full projector setup controls, allowing pin-point accurate calibration of the projector in any home theatre or professional system.

The TEATRO 80 can be connected to a wide selection of video sources via its comprehensive input panel: six pure digital HDCP-HDMI inputs, an array of analogue inputs, and professional format digital SDI input. A dedicated 10/100MB Ethernet connector is fitted as standard, allowing the TEATRO 80 to be connected to a LAN network or to the internet. This network connection can be used to remotely control the projector using TCP/IP commands or to feedback projector operating status information.
