The Polaview 220 DLP Projector —
Product Description/Positioning
Now you can project the same SVGA image you see on your
computer screen!
Introducing a Digital Light Processing (DLP) Projector that will
deliver “on the screen” the exact detail displayed on your
computer.
The Polaview 220 DLP Projector is one of the first true
Super Video Graphics Array (SVGA) projectors available in the
market today. The projector delivers high-resolution images (800
x 600) through the use of new DLP technology — not LCD. DLP
technology enables the Polaview 220 to deliver brighter, crisper,
and truer color images than comparable LCD projectors. This is
especially true of applications that work with video or images
containing fine detail.

The Polaview 220 plays an essential role in Polaroid’s pro-
jector and panel family line. First and foremost, the Polaview
220’s SVGA capabilities provide solutions for customers who
demand better resolution capability than current VGA (Video
Graphics Array) projectors offer. This demand is being driven
primarily by the growth of Windows ‘95 and the predominance
of SVGA LCD screens shipping with laptop computers. Cus-
tomers want, and have asked, for a projector that matches the
detail of their SVGA screens. Demand for SVGA is increasing as
the use of video in presentations becomes more popular.

Features-at-a-Glance
The Polaview 220 enables customers to project high-quality
images that match their laptop computer SVGA screens. Now
the same resolution and brightness of a computer screen can be
enjoyed on a projection screen measuring up to 240 inches diago-
nally! Ideal for use in executive briefings, sales presentations or
training and education, the Polaview 220 is an essential commu-
nication tool.

Digital Light Processing Technology – Backgrounder
DLP Technology was invented by Texas Instruments in the
early 1990s. It is enabled by use of Texas Instrument’s Digital
Micro-mirror Device (DMD).
DLP subsystems can project superior data or video images
on screens of almost any size. Audiences can view DLP images
on screens ranging from 36 inches to 240 inches (3 ft. to 20 ft.)
diagonal from any angle. Seamless images expand easily to large
screens. Whereas LCD technology limits picture quality, DLP
reflects images from their original source directly to the screen.
This means crisper images, truer colors and better light control.
Polaview 220 DLP Projector

Texas Instruments has described the advantages of
DLP technology as follows:
DLP based display provides improved resolution and brightness,
high contrast and color fidelity. The result is a high-quality
image with greater flexibility for a wide range of applications.
DLP based projectors feature flicker-free and brighter displays
offering more life-like colors, better color convergence and less
visual “noise.” The reduction in visual noise allows viewers to
perceive more detail in foreground and background scenes, pro-
ducing images that appear to have more depth than current pro-
jection display images.
DLP is a promising new technology with big appeal for
“early adopters.” Currently, DLP’s real advantage is its SVGA
capability and its superiority to LCD for video and photographic
imagery.

Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
How does Polaroid’s new DLP Projector compare to today’s other
data projection technologies?
• High Apparent Resolution Each pixel has efficient light
distribution.
• No “Screen Door Effect” Small inter-pixel gaps and
opaque masking between the picture elements virtually
eliminates the “screen door effect” — the noticeable pix-
els that result in an image that appears to be seen
through a screen door.
• Higher Brightness As the resolution of the Digital Micro-
mirror Device (DMD) increases, the output brightness
also increases. Because the technology is reflective, not
transmissive as in LCD projectors, brightness increases
as the surface area or pixel density increases. In other
technologies, increases in resolution reduce the amount
of light that can be transmitted.

• Excellent Image Quality Outstanding color saturation,
color temperature, contrast ratio, and true 24-bit color
processing provide image depth, clarity, and richness
approaching film quality.
• Superior Image Uniformity Other flat panel displays
have viewing angle characteristics that require a certain
perspective to achieve optimum results. With these, even
at optimum angles, there is not consistent uniformity
across the image. DLP technology doesn’t have these
viewing angle limitations.
• Faster Refresh Rates The Digital Micro-mirror Device can
be updated in microseconds versus the millisecond rates
of today’s “best” display devices.
• Sharper Text and Graphics Because the pixels are in fixed
rows and columns, projected horizontal and vertical
lines most often associated with text and high-resolution
graphics are clear, crisp and very sharp. Large-screen
CRT monitors and projectors can’t match up due to con-
vergence errors and CRT drift that results in out-of-focus
or blurry appearance.
Polaview 220 DLP Projector
What is the significance of SVGA (800 x 600) resolution?
The screen resolution of 800 x 600 pixels used in Polaview 220
projectors matches the monitor capabilities of most laptop com-
puters sold today. It gives the users bright and superior comput-
er/video images. Unlike other projectors, Polaview 220 users do
not need to adjust their monitor settings to 640 x 480.
Will DLP technology replace LCD?
LCD projection products are and will continue to be viable, com-
petitive products. LCD projectors are Polaroid’s most popular
products, and double-digit growth rates are expected to continue
through the end of the decade. The Polaview 220 is a feature-rich
data/video projector with superior image quality. It is a key
component in Polaroid’s overall data/video projector line-up for
the short term and beyond. The bottom line is that business, edu-
cation and government presenters aren’t as concerned with the
technology that’s inside their projectors as they are with a projec-
tion solution that meets their needs.
