Benq PE8720

October 19th, 2007

Contrast Your Viewing Experience with Clarity and Depth of Vision
As sensitive as the human eye
Introducing a projector that uses a technology you can believe in. Your eyes. For the first time, you can enjoy more vivid and colorful video with technology that exploits the true potential of human vision. BenQ PE8720, the projector with Senseye Technology, takes home projector to a new level with the world’s highest contrast ratio (10000:1). It delivers a more crisp, deeper, clearer, and true-to-movie video performance. So when only the best will do, you can employ BenQ to deliver a superior cinematic experience fit for the most discerning of home cinema connoisseurs.

Senseye™
Projector Engine
Perfecting the 4 elements of ultimate display performance.

Contrast Enhancement

Cinema Class Contrast Ratio (10000:1)
BenQ’s proprietary SenseyeTM Contrast Enhancement technology delivers deeper, richer and clearer high-definition visuals by implementing Advanced Continuous Electronic Iris and DarkChip3 DMD.

Advanced Continuous Electronic IRIS
Advanced Continuous Electronic Iris utilizes a variable lens aperture that increases contrast performance to a cinema-class, ultra-high 10000:1 ratio and optimizes light intensity for bright and dark scenes.
DarkChip3
Texas Instrument DarkChip3 is the latest generation DMD (Digital Micromirror Device) technology. TI’s advanced chipset decreases the scattering of light, significantly boosting image contrast for superior dark scenes.

Say Goodbye to Inferior, Flat Video Images
As with human vision, Senseye automatically analyzes image signals and adjusts the quality of bright and dark portions separately. That means dark images appear darker, and bright images appear brighter without sacrificing color saturation.

Senseye Contrast Enhancement
Dark portions look darker and bright portions look brighter producing a smoother, more film-like picture quality.
Motion Optimization

Live Action Delivered Flawlessly
Senseye Motion Optimization raises the picture quality of the PE8720 projector to new heights. One of the key factors in flawless live action is the processing of the video from its native interlace form to high quality progressive scan data.

The PE8720′s Angle-Motion Compensation completely surpasses previous models. It removes stair-stepping on moving diagonal lines. The result is no jagged edges, natural-looking and flowing moving images.

To optimize motion quality even further, Senseye incorporates Intelligent Progressive Scan, a huge leap in video picture quality that makes it possible to recreate images with cinema-like quality. Senseye intelligently detects which areas have motion and which areas do not, and then processes them differently to create smoother motion. Static areas are meshed and areas where motion is detected are treated with a proprietary filtering technique resulting in very high quality, progressive scan images.
Clarity Optimization

Crystal Clear Across the Entire Screen
Senseye Clarity Optimization reduces picture noise so images remain crystal clear across the entire screen. Image “noise” can be detected and separated into different levels. Clarity Optimization then distinguishes these different levels and then applies the correct Adaptive Noise Reduction solution so noise reduction can be achieved without over-sharpening or clarity loss. All in all, this process significantly reduces noise reduction resulting in super crisp video images.

Human eyes are more sensitive to green than any other color, which is why green dot noise can be commonly seen in darker movie scenes. The PE8720′s 8-segment Color Wheel with an advanced NDG filter minimizes green dot noise, improving picture detail for uncompromised image viewing.

The resolution of BenQ’s exclusive high resolution lens is higher than the industry standard, making each pixel appear clearer and more life-like for an overall display integrity.
Color Enhancement

Vivid True-Color Reproduction
Equipped with Senseye Color Enhancement, the PE8720 enables the subtlest of hues such as natural pastels and skin tones to be accurately reproduced delivering brilliant, true-to-life color. 3D Color Management not only corrects hue and saturation levels but also color intensity for realistic picture quality. Specialized Color Wheel Coating delivers better color saturation on Red and Blue than standard RGB (sRGB) without sacrificing green. 10-bit image processing for eye-catching imagery. Real 10-bit color processing presents over 1.07 million colors. This means color layers are adjusted to provide enhanced image quality and the latest in adaptive de-interlacing for stunning video performance.

Golden Ratio Color Wheel and its specialized coating delivers high-grade color reproduction and more natural flesh tones.

More Power Features of the PE8720

One-Touch Operation for the Best Setting in Any Occasion
At the touch of a button, the PE8720 smart technology intelligently adjusts color, lighting levels and Advanced Electronic IRIS for 5 frequently-used home applications:

Preset Modes Setting Application
Cinema The best in black detail, stunning color reproduction, and low brightness. For viewing movies in a completely dark room.
Home Theater Good in black detail, good in color reproduction, and low brightness. For viewing movies in a darkened room. (curtains closed, but some residual light)
Family Room High brightness with strong color saturation in bright room.
Show more details in white rather than in black.
 For watching TV and animation in a brighter room.
Photo Good color reproduction with decent brightness. Makes photos more distinctive and sharp.
Gaming Strong in each color (RGBY) to deliver saturated color with decent brightness. For video games.
An Enjoyment Epicenter

The PE8720 is designed with every possible connection in mind. You can connect any device for maximum digital pleasure.

 Input & Output Connecting devices
1 HDMI DVD player, digital TV, set-top box, etc.
2 Component (RCAx3) DVD player, digital TV, set-top box, etc.
3 Composite video (RCA x1)
 DVD player, camcorder, gaming machine
4 S-video DVD player, camcorder, gaming machine
5 RGB/HDTV (BNCx5) DVD player, digital TV, Home theater PC

HDMI

l HDMI is the only interface that can carry both uncompressed high-definition video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD format up to 1080p. This translates into the highest quality video and audio-seen and heard-direct from the source.
l Most digital devices still rely on analog interfaces, which are the weak link in the chain affecting the ultimate image quality of the content. Maintaining the integrity of the digital signal from device-to-device is key to providing the highest quality home theater experience.
l Better compatibility with future advanced video devices since HDMI is becoming increasingly popular.
Customizable 6 Color Settings
Whatever your eyes desire! Specifically developed for improving individual viewing experience, the PE8720 offers users direct, independent six-color adjustment of primary (RGB) and secondary (CMY) colors. When changing each color preference other colors are not affected. Making your reds redder, blues bluer – it’s your call!

Whisper-Quiet 23dB
At BenQ, we believe a low noise environment is very important for that real home cinematic experience! That’s why the PE8720 operates at a whisper-quiet 23dB for your uninterrupted viewing and listening pleasure.

1. Side-exhaust Fans
BenQ patented side-exhaust fans lower the internal ambient temperature allowing for efficient cooling, thus reducing fan RPM (revolutions per minute).
2. L-shaped inlet tunnels
To further reduce projector acoustics, BenQ has adopted two L-shaped inlet tunnels equipped with a sound dampening muffler and anti-vibration material in the Color Wheel holder.

Easy Installation

Another Handy Innovation from BenQ.
Most people don’t know what half the functions are on their remote control. On the other hand, with the PE8720′s remote control you get half the complications, but twice the precision control. You have to hand it to our engineers.
