ASPECT RATIOS EXPLAINED
Aspect Ratios Explained
Notes
The appearance of a projected image on the screen depends on:
the DMD™ resolution, which is 4K with a 4096 x 2160 resolution, corresponding to an aspect ratio of 256:135, or approximately 1.9:1.
the aspect ratio of the input signal, which is 1.9:1 for 4K and 2K images, or 1.78:1 for UHD or 1080p images.
2K and 1080p are automatically scaled by the projector to fill the height of the DMD™.
The 4K and 2K resolutions have a slightly wider aspect ratio. UHD and scaled 1080p do not fill the width of the DMD™, so they appear
centered, with pillarboxing at the sides, as shown in the illustration.
