Epson Says Sub-$2,000 Projector Uses Pixel-Shifting to Reach 4K Resolution

Epson bowed a 4K projector with HDR for $1,999, it said Tuesday, highlighting 2,400 lumens brightness, 200:000:1 contrast ratio and wide color gamut. The Home Cinema 4010, with a trio of 1920 x 1080 LCD panels, accepts a maximum input of 4096 x 2160 pixels, said the company, using pixel-shifting to create a 4K experience similar to projectors claiming native 4K performance. It’s based on a 12-bit digital processing chip with frame interpolation and advanced motion control.
