Product Features
Product Overview
The Sharp XP-V801U-B V801U Professional 3LCD Laser Projector is a high-performance installation-grade projector engineered for demanding visual environments. It combines a laser light source with advanced 3LCD, 3-chip technology to deliver consistent, vibrant color reproduction and reliable operation over extended periods. This model is built to serve education, corporate, simulator, and meeting room applications where image quality, brightness, and durability are critical.
With a native WUXGA resolution of 1920 x 1200 and a 16:10 aspect ratio, the projector provides crisp, detailed imagery suitable for presentations, training simulations, and multimedia content. Its 8300 lm brightness ensures clear visibility even in well-lit rooms, while the 3,000,000:1 contrast ratio adds depth and definition to visuals. The laser light source offers a 20,000-hour lifespan in normal mode, reducing maintenance needs and total cost of ownership compared to traditional lamp-based projectors.
Technical Overview
This projector utilizes a single laser light source, which provides instant on/off capability, consistent brightness over time, and eliminates the color decay associated with conventional lamps. The 3LCD optical engine ensures full-color projection in every frame, avoiding color breakup and delivering smooth motion for video and 3D content. The standard throw lens allows flexible placement in medium to large rooms, with a projection distance range from 27.56 inches to over 166 feet, accommodating image sizes from 40 inches to 41.67 feet diagonally.
