WAYNE, NJ – JVC Visual Systems, a division of JVCKENWOOD USA Corporation, will launch its latest Visualization Series projector, the DLA-VS3000, at the 2018 Flight Simulator Engineering and Maintenance Conference (FSEMC), which runs Sept. 17-20 at the Omni Mandalay Hotel in Irving, Texas. Designed for the demands of the simulation environment, the new model features native 4K resolution and the third generation of JVC’s BLU-Escent laser/phosphor illumination technology.
The DLA‑VS3000’s three native 4K (4096×2160) D-ILA imagers deliver 10-bit imagery with industry-leading 15,000:1 native contrast ratio, which is essential for nighttime simulator training. The projector offers 60/120Hz refresh as well as digital smear reduction with black frame insertion for smooth motion, and includes two 1.2a DisplayPort interfaces. JVC also offers a range of high MTF fixed and zoom lenses for various throw ratio requirements.
BLU-Escent technology offers an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional lamp-based illumination and allows flexible mounting orientations. Ideal for the simulation market, the DLA‑VS3000 delivers 2,000 ANSI lumens and has an estimated life of 21,000‑30,000 hours. The DLA-VS3000 has a built-in internal Auto Intensity/Auto Color system that maintains the brightness and color setup over long period of time, which will greatly reduce routine maintenance compared to older display technology.
“FSEMC attracts hundreds of flight simulator experts from around the world, and we are looking forward to showcasing our latest Visualization Series projector at the conference,” said Ian Scott, vice president, Visual Systems Division, JVCKENWOOD USA Corp. “Our engineers continue to improve the performance and efficiency of JVC projectors to meet and exceed the simulation market requirements, and you can see the results in the DLA-VS3000. Simulator operators will appreciate its long life, reduced maintenance, and low operating costs.”
The DLA-VS3000 will be available in early 2019.
