Key Technologies
SXRD® 1920 x 1080p Full HD Panels
SXRD® is a 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 (2.5ms rise and fall), high contrast ratio with wire grid polarizers and high contrast plate and accurate color
rendition.

Advanced Iris 2
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. A manual adjustment option is also available to fix the iris opening for specific image
conditions.

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-VW60 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.

Panel Alignment Adjustment Function
The VPL-VW60 is configured with a function that compensates gaps in panel
alignment. 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.

A croshatch pattern is providede for this purpose. It is possible to
adjust each color by 0.1 pixel steps up to 1 full pixe. in each direction.

Anamorphic Zoom Mode
The VPL-VW60 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 usingcommercially available external
anamorphic lens.
