Wavian is a technology licensing company developing long-life, high-performance light sources and engine prototypes for the projection and general lighting industries. Today, the company announced a new mini projector that they say will be able to project 1000 ANSI lumens. The device doesn’t have a name yet, but it will use the latest in white LED lamps from Luminus. These lamps allow the projector to display a high brightness but also only use 50 watts of energy. “Wavien’s LED light recycling technology offers outstanding brightness by recovering and recycling high angle light from the LED that is normally wasted with traditional LED coupling systems,” stated Dr. Kenneth Li, President and CEO of Wavien, Inc., who is also the inventor of the recycling technology. Dr. Li added: “This unique design enables LED-based products to have increased total brightness by over 80%.” [via PR Newswire ]

Christie is a leader in simulation projection display and visualization solutions. Today, the company announced that they have designed and custom built a structure for the Carleton University’s Advanced Cognitive Engineering Laboratory. The structure will use Christie projector to create a simulation environment for the user. The area can be used for any number of large scale training simulators from airplanes and helicopters to motor vehicles. One of the first simulators that will be used will be a CF18 and a Saturn driving simulator. The projectors selected for the simulator will be the Matrix HD4 projector, which features 5000 ANSI lumens, a 2000:1 contrast ratio, and full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution. “Christie is proud to provide a custom-built solution for Carleton University’s Advanced Cognitive Engineering Laboratory (ACE Lab),” says Zoran Veselic, vice-president of Visual Environments at Christie. “The research conducted by the ACE Lab will help produce the sophisticated training simulators of tomorrow.” [via Christie ]

Christie is a leader in visual solutions for business, entertainment and industry. Today, the company announced that their projectors will be used to present the main show at the Australian Pavilion for the Expo event in Shanghai. One of the bigger displays includes using four DS+6K-M projectors to project onto a 160m (524 ft) long, glass-enclosed ramp snaking around and penetrating the building exterior. The DS+6K-M features 5000 ANSI lumens, a SXGA+ (1400 x 1050) resolution and a 10000:1 contrast ratio. Another major display at the pavilion is a “theater-in-the-round setting” and it uses seven Roadster S+20K projectors. This features the same SXGA+ resolution as the DS+6K-M, but it also comes with an 1800:1 contrast ratio and a 20000 ANSI lumens. “Australia’s presence at the Shanghai World Expo is to show that we are a dynamic country, renowned for its robust, diverse economy and creative industries. The state-of-the-art video presentation in our ANZ theatre-in-the-round is a tangible demonstration of Australia’s creative and technological capabilities,” says Lyndall Sachs, Commissioner-General, Communications Manager, Australian Pavilion.

Today, the VP and co-founder, Dr. Edward Buckley has announced that he is leaving the company. Instead he plans to join with Alces Technology, which is a new company in Jackson WY. Buckley plans to help Alces with their development of a 1D MEMS-based microdisplay technology for laser-based projection applications. “I feel very privileged to have founded a company which grew from a demonstration on an optical bench at Cambridge University in 2003, all the way through to a hugely successful product launch at CES 2010. It has been very exciting watching the pico projector industry grow and I look forward to watching it fulfil its potential,” stated Buckley. [via Pico Projector Info ]

Barco is proud to announce that they have been selected to be partners with NVIDIA to demo displays, projectors, and image processing solutions for the SIGGRAPH 2010 convention. This convention will mark a first for NVIDIA because it is the first time that they have built a 100% digital controlled booth. This means that there will be absolutely no printed signs. “NVIDIA and Barco both have an unwavering commitment to providing the best visualization technology,” said Jeff Brown, General Manager, Professional Solutions Group, NVIDIA. “When we began planning our exhibit for SIGGRAPH earlier this year, it was an easy choice to ask Barco to help us create a rich visual experience, with the brightest, sharpest HD resolution imagery possible. Together, our technologies work hand-in-hand to produce a remarkable, immersive environment.” [via Barco ]

BenQ is the world’s #1-selling DLP projector brand in the education market. Today, the company announced that four new projectors will be released soon. The new models include the MP780 ST ($2099), MP778 , SP840 ($2999), and the SP890 ($3999), which was recently released in Japan. While most of these projectors we have seen before, the newest of the bunch is the MP778. The only information that we have about this projector is that it has full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, 3D display technology, and a microphone and USB connection. The SP840 and SP890 share the same HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, but also can display 4000 ANSI lumens. The SP890 can display a 50000:1 contrast ratio, while the SP840 only displays a 3000:1 contrast ratio. The MP780 ST only has WXGA (1280 x 800) resolution, 2500 ANSI lumens, and a 3000:1 contrast ratio. However, this model is the only one in the bunch that comes with a short throw lens. “Education is a deeply rooted passion at BenQ. Our mission of delivering the latest technology via the highest quality products at the best possible value is the ideal answer to the institution sector’s needs,” said Peter Chen, EVP and General Manager of BenQ Technology Product Center. “Our extensive research and unparalleled insight into what teachers, administrators, and students desire once again gives BenQ the edge in creating class-leading projectors that ignite the magic in teaching.” The SP890 and SP840 are already available worldwide, while the MP780 ST will release next month. There is no information on when the MP778 will be released. [via BenQ ]

The Uniden ULP1000 is one of the world’s few laser pico projectors. It features a 5000:1 contrast ratio, and a WVGA (848 x 480) resolution. Today, the writers from CNET reviewed the ULP1000 to see how well it works. The writers first compliment the size and weight of the projector. It can easily fit into a pocket, bag, or suitcase with out any problems. One thing that iPhone users might like is that the projector comes with iPhone/iPod cable to help add portability to the device. One thing that the writers didn’t like was the general feel of the unit. All the accessories and the projector seemed to have a toy-like plastic feel to them. They also did not like the fact that all the accessories had to travel with the projector with no real case to put them in. They did however like the overall image quality and the fact that the projector could display onto any surface with needing refocused. The final comment that the writer made was, “For us, the portable projector, as an entire category of tech, feels like a solution without a problem. Given that a projector of this size isn’t capable of displaying an image to a room full of people, wouldn’t you be better off with an iPad you can pass around or a digital photo frame with a remote control? In both cases you’d end up with considerable change from the AU$999 you might have spent on this projector.” [via CNET ]

One of LG ’s pocket projectors is the HS201G . This tiny device only weighs 1.8 lbs but it can display 200 ANSI lumens, a 2000:1 contrast ratio, and SVGA (800 x 600) resolution. Today, the company announced that this little projector has received rave reviews in the USA and has become a very popular projector. What is odd about this announcement is that LG has not provided any data in order to back this claim. Also the only announced release about the HS201G has been for the Middle East only. Even on LG’s USA website, the HS201G is not available to view, which makes this claim even more questionable. Hopefully LG will know these facts and release some estimated numbers. The HS201G is a stylish projector that looks like it was designed during the Deco Art era. The projector comes with an HDMI port as well as a USB port for PC-free presentations. LG has also included a wide array of features including DivX support, screen capture, and even a built-in FM transmitter for wireless sound capabilities. [via Akihabara News ]
