Key Technologies
SXRD™  1920 x 1080p Full HD Panels
 
SXRD is a new display technology developed by the legendary television engineers at 
Sony to meet and exceed the demands of a High Definition image at its full 1080 line resolution. It is a 1920 x 1080p panel 
characterized by several key benefits -- full HD resolution, smooth film-like image with minimal screen door effects, high 
response times (5ms rise and fall), high contrast ratios and accurate color rendition.
400W Pure Xenon Lamp
 
A special 400W pure Xenon lamp provides equal brightness output levels for all three primary 
colors - red, green and blue, used to create the trillions of colors that can be delivered. Natural and accurate color is 
reproduced with bottomless whites and spectacular reds.
Advanced Iris
 
The latest evolution of Sony’s own Advanced Iris function uses algorithms designed to analyze the histogram 
of each picture along with nonlinear amplification to dynamically adjust the iris for its optimum opening. The result is a 
stunningly high contrast ratio of up to 35,000:1. Images in bright scenes are crisp and clear and black levels in dark scenes are 
deep and detailed.
Ultra Quiet Fan
 
An exclusive Sony-designed fan efficiently removes heat at a barely noticeable noise spec of 22dB. 
Obtrusive fan noise is virtually eliminated to allow for flexibility in room placement.
ARC-F (All Range Crisp Focus) Lens
 
A specially developed crisp focus lens was developed to take full advantage of the full 
1920 x 1080 HD resolution that the SXRD panel device offers. It offers superior resolution and focus.
RCP (Real Color Processing)
 
Real Color Processing allows the user to target specific colors on the picture and fine adjust 
their color and hue without changing the overall picture's color and hue. For instance, the color of a strawberry can be fine 
adjusted without impacting the skin tones. Or the blue in a sky can be adjusted without affecting the color of water. And 
green grass can be adjusted without influencing the other colors in the picture.
BRAVIA Engine™  Video Processing System
 
The VPL-VW200 BRAVIA® Home Cinema Projector uses Sony's BRAVIA Engine™  
full digital video processor for crisp and clear images. Several special picture enhancement technologies are integrated into 
the processor to create better gradations with more detail, enhance contrast, and dynamically improve color performance.
> Digital Noise Reduction Circuits: Reduces block noise and mosquito noise by using pixel-level filtering to reproduce a clean 
and clear picture. And Motion Vector Noise Reduction reduces just the noise in the video signal for video further reducing 
unwanted noise and blur artifacts.
> Digital Contrast Enhancer circuit: Improves contrast by enhancing all areas from dark to bright in parallel with texture control 
providing a three dimensional picture.
> Color Reality signal processing enables the expression of all the colors of life in vivid detail for dark and bright scenes. 
Details in dark areas of the picture are there, just like they are supposed to be.
Panel Alignment Function
 
The VPL-VW200 is configured with a function that compensates gaps in character or color 
management. It is possible to select R(Red) or B(Blue) to make adjustments based on G(Green), and to adjust the horizontal 
and vertical direction by shifting full image of each color.

Anamorphic Zoom Mode
 
The VPL-VW200 has an “ Anamorphic zoom”  mode in the wide modes to enjoy wider aspect ratio. 
With this mode, it is possible to create a full 2.35:1 image just like a movie theater when using commercially available 
anamorphic lens.
Motionflow™  120Hz High Frame Rate Technology
 
Taking motion performance to the next level requires innovation and 
expertise. Enter Sony's Motionflow™  High Frame Rate technology. Motionflow™  detects the incoming video signal and applies 
the appropriate processing for optimum motion reproduction. Taking full advantage of film sourced 24fps encoded content 
available on DVD and Blu-ray Disc, Motionflow™  eliminates the need for 3:2 pulldown and delivers smooth, judder free video, 
faithfully preserving the integrity of the original film. When 60fps content is detected, Motionflow™  doubles the amount of 
frames and uses real-time calculation to create a new level of natural motion reproduction. You'll experience movies and 
sports with a greater sense of realism than ever before.
