Canon WUX450 Specifications

LCOS Projector WUX450/WX520

1. Main Features

1-1 Features newly developed image engine, with renewed image processing algorithm
Various image-related performances are substantially enhanced to realize a better picture quality, making it
possible to install a new function that requires complicated algorithm.
Performance enhancement: Keystone, Progressive, and internal functions for picture enhancement, etc.
Additional functions: Split screen (*1), Edge blending (*2), Motion blur reduction (*3) and others.
*1: A function that displays 2 video signals in 2 sub-screens on the projection.
*2: A function that makes seams among multiple projector pictures less noticeable to produce a single smoother picture.
*3: A function for enhancing moving image quality.
1-2 New generation AISYS optical system
Light-emitting points on the lamp was made smaller, and the optical design was renewed to optimize light use
efficiency.
With the new optics, brightness and contrast were improved by minimizing the drop in light efficiency during
polarization conversion process and light leak on black.
The new optics is also smaller in size, which is one of the driving factors toward compactification of overall
product.
1-3 High resolution, high brightness, high contrast
High-resolution LCOS panel with new generation AISYS optical system can realize smoother, brighter, and
higher-contrast pictures.
WUX450: WUXGA, 4500 lumens, 2000:1 / WX520: WXGA+, 5200 lumens, 2000:1
1-4 1.8x zoom F2.8 projection lens with lens shift mechanism
Equipped with high-power 1.8x zoom projection lens, the model has higher flexibility in installment distance.
Also, the model is Canon's first integrated projection lens product equipped with lens shift function, which
offers higher flexibility in screen location as well.
Furthermore, F number for this model's projection lens is fixed at 2.8 in the entire zoom range by
specification. The user can gain consistent picture brightness even after changing the zoom location. This is
the differentiation point against competitions' products.
1-5 Industry No.1 Eco function
Realization of world-class low power consumption (environmental top runner product)
・(Erp.lot3 ) Electric power for 1 lumen － WUX450: 0.081 W/lm, WX520:0.068 W/lm
・(Erp.lot6) Standby power consumption － 0.2 W
・(Erp.lot26) Standby power consumption when using network － 0.6W
1-6 Improved cooling function
Internal cooling fan locations and ventilation paths are optimized by simulation technology.
We replaced some optical parts with more durable ones, and all in all, managed to extend the product's life.
1-7 Network Multi Projection (NMPJ)
The product has capability to receive picture data from computers via the network for projection.
Since this function allows for a single pair connection (1 projector and 1 computer) as well as multiple pair
connections (multiple projectors and multiple computers), it can be utilized in various use situations.
1-8 Other new features
・"Corner adjustment" adjust the locations of 4 corners for projection
・"Micro-digital image shift" utilizes surplus pixels on the panel
・"Registration" adjusts the relative locations of RGB panel
・Displays pictures from input of USB terminal.
・Firmware upgrade by upgrade program (obtained from website)
