Optoma launches GT2160HDR true 4K UHD short throw cinema gaming projector

Optoma, world’s No.1 DLP projector brand and a leading designer of projection products today announced the launch of Optoma GT2160HDR, the true 4K UHD short throw cinema gaming projector in the Indian market. Optoma aims to provide the finest home entertainment experience to Indian customers with its latest product launch.

The new product is empowered by an innovative Texas Instruments 4K UHD DLP chip set containing a high performance DMD using XPR video processing technology with fast switching to display 8.3 million pixels (4x the number of pixels of 1080P) as mandated by the Consumer Technology Association’s 4K UHD specification.

The GT2160HDR uses a short-throw lens with 0.496 throw ratio. Practically this means a user can project a 120-in diagonal image from as close as four feet from the screen. Due to the characteristics of the short-throw projector, the screen can be enlarged up to 300 inches in living room of a user.

GT2160HDR delivers intense and spectacular colour performance with 4,000 high lumens of brightness. Optoma’s specialized colour calibration and adjusting technologies exceeds HDTV Rec. 709 standards to present the truest and the most accurate tints, for authentic, and in-depth storytelling images.

This product has features like HDR hue and tone mapping technology, which enable HDR / HLG movies or games to be presented with optimized performance in the accurate colour and dynamic contrast. It is also equipped with easy connectivity options like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB port and it supports two HDMI 2.0 for any external 4K devices e.g., Apple TV 4K, PS4 Pro, and XBOX One X which helps consumers in content sharing.

Optoma’s GAMER mode is calibrated to boost the details in the dark areas of an image. This means gamers have a better chance of avoiding being fragged by an opponent hiding in the shadows. If the GT2160HDR detects an HDR-encoded game, it automatically switches to HDR display mode. If not, GT2160HDR provides the HDR SIM mode, designed to apply an HDR effect to the game images providing a rich colour gamut setting and sharp contrast without sacrificing any detail.
