Some People Just Watch Movies

You, on the other hand, experience film. You critique cinema. You savor the sleeper hits. You secretly indulge in the occasional blockbuster. Fortunately, InFocus Home Theater Projectors do equal justice to art-house indie flicks and trillion-dollar smash hits — even the odd B-movie (not that anyone has to know about it). You get to take in every obscure detail with this projector's 16:9 aspect ratio. This is the way it was meant for the big screen: Larger than life. In electrifying color and clarity. Enhanced by Pixelworks' DNX video-processing technology, this InFocus projector features the latest DarkChip2 DLP technology from Texas Instruments, and an impressive 1920 x 1080 native resolution to bring high-definition reality into your living room. With 1100 video-optimized lumens, a 10,000:1 calibrated contrast ratio, and an advanced seven segment color wheel, this baby delivers cinema-quality color and brightness worthy of a Hollywood premiere. If InFocus can do all this for your beloved films, just imagine what it could do for your sports parties and immersive video gaming action.

How It Differs From Its Predecessors

InFocus offers up-to-date home theater technology with the IN81. You'll get just as great performance as you did with the IN7- series: It's ready for Blu-ray, HD television and video programming, but this model kicks it up a notch with a larger contrast ratio, greater projection resolution, and more connectivity options. And its even able to project from farther away. The Play Big IN81 is virtually future-proof thanks to onboard HDMI 1.3 inputs with Deep Color™ support. This new HDMI standard can display up to 1.07 billion colors for a smooth picture without color band artifacts. The IN81 also hosts comprehensive connectivity and I/O, including DVI, and PC input, screen triggers, RS232, and an IR repeater input. (Deep Color requires HDMI 1.3 compatible media player and source material.)

Let Set-Up Be A Pleasure

Remember the first time you drove a clutch? Programmed a VCR? Tried to put together anything labeled "Some Assembly Required"? Strike those humbling technological learning curves from your mind when imagining this InFocus projector. You probably can't imagine how easy it is to turn on and use. Imagine enjoying the process of setting up your home theater with a simple keypad and a full-featured remote control with flashlight feature, direct source access, and programmable presets. An icon-based menu allows you to quickly scroll and select your settings in your choice of 12 languages — without interrupting the show. User-selectable video sources enable impressive connectivity with a full range of devices, including Blu-ray, DVD, or your game console of choice.

As Stylish As It Gets

The powerful appeal of the IN81 goes far beyond the magnificent picture it projects onscreen. Its sleek, futuristic, low-profile appearance adds a subtle sophistication to any room. Its unique swivel base simplifies tabletop setup and can be easily removed for ceiling mounting. Overall, the IN81 clearly displays your discriminating taste in both home-entertainment technology and fine design.
