Powerful Features to Deliver Consistently Brilliant Images

Original Panasonic Technology Reduces Motion Blur

Real Motion Processor uses sophisticated algorithms to create three

additional frames for each image, boosting native 60 fps footage to 240

frames per second. The result is incredibly smooth and realistic motion

rendering, particularly useful for the broadcast of sporting events and other

fast-paced video. Further, images of up to 240 Hz*

can be displayed with SDI,

DVI-D, and HDMI simultaneous inputs*

. A reined optical engine enhances

focus performance for a lifelike sense of resolution, contrast, and uidity.

Detail Clarity Processor 5 + Clarifies and Enhances Fine Details

Panasonic's new generation circuit technology analyzes each individual image

frame by frame to clarify areas containing ine details and textures. Powerful

algorithms extract hidden information from the super high, high, medium, and

low frequency video bands, sharpening outlines, correcting contours, and

reducing ringing noise to improve the sense of resolution. The PT-RQ13K

adds an exclusive Reine Enhancer algorithm designed to clean and enhance

the inest details in 4K + images.

Dynamic Contrast Function for High 20,000:1*

Contrast

The PT-RQ13K projector directly modulates laser power output to enable high

contrast while reducing power consumption. Digitally controlled frame-by-

frame scene-linking modulation ensures highly precise light output adjustment,

and accurate 20,000:1*

contrast is achieved even when bright and dark

scenes suddenly or frequently interchange. There is also almost no drop in

contrast after extended use.

*2 Refresh rate varies depending on vertical scanning frequency. Note that 240 Hz frame rate is downsampled back to 60 Hz when projecting at 4K+ resolution. *3 HDMI and DVI-D terminals available only on optional SLOT NX boards. Two boards of the same kind are

required when displaying images at 240 Hz via simultaneous inputs. *4 Geometric Adjustment and Upgrade Kit functions are not supported with simultaneous video signal input. *5 With Dynamic Contrast Mode set to 3. *6 This product is not a medical instrument. Do

not use for actual medical diagnosis. *7 At this time the brightness will have decreased to approximately half of its original level (Dynamic Contrast Mode: 3, Image Mode: Dynamic). Panasonic recommends cleaning or checkup at point of purchase after every 20,000-

hour period (approximately). Light source lifetime may be reduced depending on environmental conditions. Replacement of parts other than the light source may be required in a shorter period. *8 With Operating Mode set to Long Life 3, in which mode brightness is

lowered to 1,900 lm. 24 hours/day x 365 days/year x 10 years = 87,600 hours. Replacement of parts other than the light source may be required in a shorter period.

System Daylight View 3 Improves Color Perception

This proprietary technology optimizes image quality to improve color

perception of images projected onto walls and other exotic surface materials

(ideal for mapping applications) as well as in environments with bright ambient

light. Combined with high 10,000 lm brightness, the PT-RQ13K delivers clear

and comfortable viewing in the most challenging applications.

Waveform Monitor Function

When source device output level uctuates due to the performance of the

device or its cable connections, the original black and white levels of the

image cannot be reproduced correctly. The PT-RQ13K displays the

waveforms on screen where they can be adjusted either automatically or

manually as preferred.

DICOM Simulation Mode*

This imaging mode is similar to the DICOM Part 14 medical imaging standard.

It lends a ilm-like resolution to X-ray images, making the PT-RQ13K ideal for

medical presentations and training.

maximum of 10 years.

High Reliability, Low TCO, and Easy Maintenance

Efficient Cooling System Assures Reliable Operation

The PT-RQ13K employs a newly developed direct liquid cooling system for the

laser light source that features a redesigned air intake and a solid aluminum

heat sink to suppress temperature rises. This allows stable operation in

ambient temperatures of up to 45 °C (113 °F)*

while reducing operating noise

to just 46 dB.

Flexibility and Functionality for Professional Users

Flexible Setup and Smooth Operation

Unlike conventional lamp-based projectors,

Horizontal 360 °
