Epson has just announced its first 3D 1080p home theatre projectors with the new 3LCD PowerLite Pro Cinema 6010, and Home Cinema 5010/5010e and 3010/3010e series. With both home cinema enthusiasts and custom installers in mind, Epson utilizes new Bright 3D Drive technology which promises an exceptional 3D viewing experience at home on a big screen. Epson’s new projectors offer value-added features and performance at varying price levels, including an entry-level solution available for less than $1,700.

Epson utilizes full HD, active shutter 3D, with 1080p resolution and Bright 3D Drive Technology, which drives the panels at 480Hz, essentially doubling the image refresh rate of 240Hz panels, delivering ultra-bright images and reduced crosstalk for the ultimate in 3D viewing at home. These projectors offer high brightness – up to 2,400 lumens of colour and white light output – and enable viewing on larger screens and in a range of ambient light conditions. Combined with remarkable contrast and a number of value-added features, including wireless installation options and split screen mode for watching two pictures at once or watching TV and using the Internet at the same time, the Pro Cinema 6010, and Home Cinema 5010/5010e and 3010/3010e deliver top 3D and 2D performance and image quality in each of their respective categories.
