Canon U.S.A. Web Site Expands Users Awareness Of High-Resolution Projector Image Quality

Canon U.S.A., Inc., a world leader in optics and image quality, has made it easy for projector buyers who demand High-Definition-quality images with exacting detail; highly accurate color; and crisp, readable small type to compare various resolutions online in one easy-to-use Web site.

The www.usa.canon.com/details Web site, also known as “Where Are The Details?,” provides a user-friendly interface for side-by-side comparisons of XGA, SXGA+ and Canon REALiS SXGA+ projector displays using market-specific images for education, business, medicine, engineering, professional photography and government.

This Web site can be used as a roadmap of information about Canon’s line of REALiS Multimedia Projectors, which combine highly advanced technology and value. At the very heart of Canon’s line of REALiS Multimedia Projectors is Canon’s patented, proprietary latest-generation AISYS (Aspectual Illumination System) optical engine. This system equalizes the light from the projection lamp and maximizes the performance of the next-generation LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) display technology employed by REALiS Multimedia Projectors to produce lattice-free, seamless, intricately detailed color-rich motion- or still-image projection.

Visitors to www.usa.canon.com/details can enjoy a 3-D interactive display of Canon REALiS Multimedia Projector features and benefits along with a video about Canon’s patented AISYS technology and learn how a REALiS Multimedia Projector is right for their high-quality projection needs, and more.

Projector buyers can be classified into many major categories, such as: engineers needing display of text and lines to show the fine details of an engineering or CAD (Computer-Aided Design) diagram; medical professionals scrutinizing the exacting color and critical details of a diagnostic image such as an MRI; teachers presenting educational visuals, which can include everything from mathematical equations to classic artworks to HD DVD video; or business people displaying spreadsheets of compact, detailed text and numerical information. These categories of users can all be well-served by using Canon Realis multimedia projectors.

Canon’s REALiS Multimedia Projectors are not only ideal for publishers but fashion designers, professional photographers, and video producers who need to display virtually accurate Adobe RGB-matched color as well.

For consumers who are interested in researching the benefits of purchasing a projector with SXGA+ resolution and LCOS technology over common XGA or SXGA+ models, www.usa.canon.com/details is one of the best resources available on the Web.
