Looking for a home cinema project capable of 3D projection? Well if you happen to be in a market for such a projector, the good news is that BenQ may have something in store for you in the form of the W7000, which is apparently the first projector in the world to be accredited with the TUV Rheinland 3D Full HD Certification.
The W7000 is powered by DLP Link and is said to be able to deliver crosstalk free 1080p Full HD 3D images to both eyes while sporting a contrast ratio of 50000:1. It will also feature a maximum brightness of 2000 ANSI lumens, while its projection lens is comprised only of glass-made elements that BenQ claims will not only deliver more image details, but provide better brightness performance while supposedly being able to match the Rec. 709 color gamut.
It will also feature a lamp life of up to 2500 hours and will support both NTSC and PAL encoding systems. It will feature a pair of HDMI 1.4a ports, a D-Sub connector, component video and S-Video and an integrated RS232 port that can be used to control the projector remotely. No word on how much this will cost (although given its specs we don’t expect it come cheap) and is expected to be made available later this month.

Viewsonic PLED W500 rated highly in projector review
The Viewsonic PLED W500 portable projector has been given an 80 per cent rating in a recent projector review.
The projector is being marketed as an “ultra-portable business beamer” which executives can use whilst working on the move or travelling to demonstrations and meetings. The reghardware.com projector review finds that the projector has a WXGA 1280 x 800 native resolution, making it suitable for detailed presentations
The reviewer concludes that the 500 ANSI gives a clean, sharp image with a 6000:1 contrast ratio.
One of the reviewers main positives about the projector is that it is compact and light, weighing just less than 1.2kg. Another advantage outlined in the projector review is that the device has an internal memory as well as being able to display data from USB sticks and flash cards, so no laptop is needed.
In their Viewsonic PLED W500 projector review, the reviewer also finds something unique about the device – it does not heat up like many other projectors, largely due to the LEDs which provide the light. There is also a fan which blows out cold air but the reviewer finds the sound from this is “not intrusive”

Microvision Intros Laser Pico Projectors for Mobile Big-Screen Sharing
The new SHOWWX+ HDMI offers pure digital connectivity including mobile big-screen sharing and visual collaboration on a wide range of new tablets, smartphones and devices offering HDMI video-out, enabling users to connect and project everything on their device screens at image sizes greater than 100 inches in a matter of second.
This compact, plug-and-play projector is the perfect accessory for sharing content while on the move, according to company officials. With devices like RIM's BlackBerry (News - Alert) PlayBook and Apple's iPad 2 featuring advanced operating systems, the projector enables true display mirroring, company officials said.
By adding HDMI connectivity to SHOWWX line of projectors, the company extends the family of host devices compatible with MicroVision's display delivering a larger, more vivid, focus-free viewing experience to an extended range of mobile devices once the HDMI standard is broadly adopted.
"We are giving road warriors the ability to share digital content in a compelling manner, from the palms of their hands," said Alexander Tokman, president and CEO of MicroVision, in a statement. "Extending our connectivity expands our device ecosystem. Now even more mobile device users can break free from huddling around their palm or pad-sized screens to enjoy a bigger and more immersive viewing experience anywhere, at work or play."
SHOWWX+ HDMI projects the content from a host device through HDCP compliance. In addition, MicroVision's unique in-motion laser display technology provides focus-free crisp images that do not suffer from the image deterioration or "color break-up" that often occurs with other projection technologies.
The projector is certified for use with Apple iPhone, iPad, iPad 2 and iPod touch. It also works with BlackBerry Playbook and Windows 7 tablets, a range of compatible Android and Symbian (News - Alert) smartphones, as well as Windows and Apple notebooks, netbooks and ultra portable HDMI-enabled devices. Additionally SHOWWX+ HDMI also works with compatible digital cameras and camcorders, as well as laptops and notebooks through an optional VGA dock.
MicroVision recently announced SYNNEX (News - Alert) K.K. as the first authorized distributor of SHOWWX in Japan. SYNNEX will supply the laser based pico projector authorized for the Japanese market to key online and brick-and-mortar resellers, while also managing the product's localized marketing efforts and after-sales support.

Most of the PAR46 lamps have fairly short life hours
Designed to be compatible with standard Par46 light fixtures like those used in spotlights and vehicles, the Magnalight LED40W-PAR46 bulb allows users to upgrade existing Par46 fixtures to powerful and long lived LEDs simply by changing lamps. Producing 3,600 lumens of light while drawing only 40 watts at less than 4 amps, this LED lamp produces more light than comparable 100 watt incandescent bulbs while using less than half as many amps. Available in red, green, blue, white and amber colors as well as 850Nm and 940Nm infrared, this LED lamp can be configured to operate with either 9-50VDC or 110-220VAC electrical power. This wide ranging choice of power options gives this LED lamp a versatility that incandescent lamps simply cannot match without additional hardware and expense. Mil-Spec 461 certified for EMI, this lamp also carries Army part # #12543890, signifying compatibility with military spec Par46 equipment. Contained within the aluminum body of this unit are four, 10 watt LEDs producing 900 lumens each for a total of 3,600 lumens of light power at 90 lumens per watt. For comparison, the typical high end incandescent halogen can only muster at best around 25-30 lumens per watt. The LEDs are protected by a polycarbonate lens that resists damage from impacts and vibrations, helping to give this lamp excellent durability and ruggedness characteristics. The 6 inch diameter of this LED light and its Par46 design allows it to easily replace the incandescent lamps used in spotlights, military vehicles, boats and other applications where Par46 design standards are utilized. Available in several colors including 850Nm and 940Nm infrared, this LED lamp in infrared configuration is also an ideal choice for upgrading night vision support equipment used in military and law enforcement operations.
“Our new PAR46 LED sealed beam bulb is ideally suited as a modern replacement for PAR46 sealed beam bulbs popular in post mount spotlights, vehicle headlights, aircraft landing lights and a variety of other 12 and 24 volt applications,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larson Electronics' magnalight.com. “Most of the PAR46 lamps have fairly short life hours, even with the HIR envelope. I think the GE H7635 offers 300 life hours and that is as good as it gets. With our LED40W-PAR46, we offer 50,000 plus life hours with a better flood and spotlight output than conventional sealed beam lamps. Moreover, we offer color LED and infrared options for covert military use. For years, we have been making infrared band pass lens covers for HID and halogen lighting. Now we can generate the specific infrared bandwidth from the LED package, instead of blocking out a lot of the light energy from visible light sources.”
