Description, Features
and Benefits
The revolutionary Q-1500d Series LED Home Theater Projection System pairs
energy-saving LED technology with proprietary Runco engineering to create unsurpassed
performance and unrivaled customization. The Runco QuantumColor™ Q-1500d Series
LED Home Theater Projection System maximizes the benefits of Runco’s new InfiniLight™
lampless LED illumination technology and pairs it with the proprietary Runco Brightness
Acceleration Engine™ to produce large-screen, bright images making the Q-1500d the
brightest LED home theater projector available in the world.
The Q-1500d is an energy-efficient projector with the widest color gamut ever available in
home theater projection. But simply creating a projector platform with lampless
technology and the largest color gamut isn’t enough. Harnessing its incredible color
options, Runco introduces its revolutionary new Personal Color Equalizer™, which allows
color adjustment that includes those exactly defined by the cinematographer and the
color preferences of each individual viewer for each source. Proprietary Runco Smart
Color (RSC™) provides a hue compensation curve and gamut mapping that allows for
lifelike, accurate flesh tones while increasing color saturation, without sacrificing the purity
of other colors.
The Q-1500d’s unparalleled brightness is both a combination of Runco’s new Brightness
Acceleration Engine™ and a phenomenon called Q-lumens. Q-lumens enable the
Q-1500d to outperform its specifications.
The Q-1500d Series LED Home Theater Projection System features advanced ViVix IV™
video processing, superb scaling (up to 1080p) and aspect ratio control. The Q-1500d is
enhanced further by significant horizontal and vertical lens shift capability for maximum
installation flexibility.
For uncompromised widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the
CinemaScope™ 2:35:1 format, the Q-1500d can also be paired with Runco’s
award-winning CineWide™ and CineWide with AutoScope™ technology. Through an
ingenious combination of software, electronics and precision anamorphic optics,
CineWide maintains constant vertical height on the screen just as in a movie theater.
When a viewer transitions from 1.78:1 (16:9) program material to superwide 2.35:1, the
image simply gets wider while full screen height is maintained, eliminating useless black
bars on the top and bottom of the screen.
With Runco CineWide, the projection system is able to use the full pixel array, thereby
producing a 2.35:1 image with enhanced resolution and increased brightness. No
resolution or image area is lost to those black bars that contain no picture information.
CineWide with AutoScope provides a motorized, remote-controlled anamorphic lens
mechanism.
CineWide requires the use of a 2.35:1 (or similar aspect ratio),
“superwide” format screen.
