NEC EXPANDS INSTALLATION PROJECTOR OFFERING WITH NEW NP4001 
WIDE-SCREEN PROJECTOR  
 
NP4001 Single Chip DLP
®
 Projector Delivers Flexibility, Manageability and  
Wide-Aspect Display to Performance Installation and Large Venue Segments  
 
 
CHICAGO, September 18, 2007 – NEC Display Solutions of America, a leading stand-alone 
provider of projectors, LCD desktop and commercial large-screen LCDs and plasma displays, 
today introduced the NP4001, its first wide-screen single chip DLP projector targeting applications 
requiring higher brightness and extended use.  
 
Poised to capitalize on the rapidly growing trend to wide-screen in notebook computers, the 
NP4001 is designed primarily for corporate, government and higher education facilities that 
require a powerfully projected image. The 4500 ANSI lumen, WXGA-native NP4001 delivers 
reliability to applications ranging from command and control centers to training facilities to lecture 
halls. Its full line of operational lenses provide powered horizontal and vertical lens shift for easy 
exchange and flexible placement anywhere from 2.8 feet to 283 feet from the screen. And the 
NP4001’s single and dual lamp flexibility allows users to choose a light output that is right for the 
application while conserving lamp life to increase the value of the projector. 
 
“With wide notebook panel sales projected to increase dramatically, the NP4001 is ready to meet 
the rising demand for wide-aspect projection,” said Rich McPherson, Product Manager, NEC 
Display Solutions. “Not only will the NP4001 deliver wide-screen performance, the projector’s 
functionality and versatility allow configurations that can suit a variety of applications.”  
 
The NP4001 incorporates advanced video processing with BrilliantColor™ from Texas 
Instruments to deliver exceptional picture management control for both progressive and 
interlaced sources, while making images more vibrant, colors more realistic, and blacks richer 
with detail. At the same time, DynamicBlack™ monitors the incoming video content and 
dynamically adjusts the contrast ratio to optimize picture quality for each video frame.
