DLP is getting hot

„In the third quarter, the company reported better that expected revenues because of company’s Digital Light Processing (DLP) and wireless digital signal processor (DSP) products. DLPs are used in newer televisions, and according to the company, DLP based TVs have started to outsell plasma TVs in North America . (Christmas is coming, so this could be even better news, and in case any readers wants me to have one, well send it my way.) I think the company might have a bigger hit on its hands: the rise of cheap projectors in my view is going to increase DLP penetration. Who needs a big TV when you can get a tiny DLP projector that does the trick, and well doesn't take too much room, and is cheaper.“

„In terms of video performance, DLP-projection technology for home theater applications has just taken a major leap forward. Sharp's new XV-Z9000U is the first DLP projector based on Texas Instruments' new native 16:9, 1,280-by-720-resolution chip. This projector promises to radically change the front-projector market, as it offers unprecedented picture quality in its product category at a very reasonable price. At a list price of $10,995, the XV-Z9000U comes close to delivering the same picture quality as 7- and 8-inch CRT-based front projectors that range in price from $15,000 to $30,000.“http://www.hometheatermag.com/frontprojectors/103/ - Cached
„They will soon be available in 72- and 84-inch diagonal image sizes, too. Moreover, DLPs are slimmer than other rear projection TVs, measuring around 15" to 17" in depth. RCA claims to have a couple of prototypes in the 50- and 61-inch size image range that will actually hang on the wall! Manufacturers are working hard to create slimmer DLP displays to suit more applications.“http://www.plasmatvbuyingguide.com/ dlpvsplasmatv.html - Cached
„Samsung has made several very solid RPTV units based on DLP (Digital Light Processor) from Texas Instruments, and our Nick Stam's long-running HDTV buying odyssey ultimately led him to a Samsung DLP-based RPTV. Samsung is back with a new 50" unit that leverages TI's latest DLP chip, the HD3, a 1280x720 micro-display ASIC aimed at helping HDTV makers reduce the cost of RPTVs using DLP technology.“http://www.extremetech.com/article2/ 0,1558,1681205,00.asp - Cached
„You'll find projectors based both on polysilicon LCD panels and Texas Instruments' micromirror DLP technology. LCD projectors require separate panels for red, green, and blue images, which can lead to convergence problemsmaking images look fuzzy. DLP (digital light processing) uses a single panel and relies on a color wheel to create the red, green, and blue images.“http://www.pcmag.com/article2/ 0,1759,1192549,00.asp - Cached
„LAS VEGAS--The DLP rear projector market is about to heat up. As the shift away from CRT rear projectors continues, Texas Instrument's (TI) DLP technology is the current leader in digital rear projection technologies. While Sony continues to ship LCD rear projection TVs, and other companies dabble in LCoS (liquid crystal on silicon), a wide array of TV manufacturers have settled on TI's digital micromirror technology for HDTV rear projection units.“http://www.pcmag.com/article2/ 0,1759,1433482,00.asp - Cached
