Christie has launched the Sapphire® 4K40-RGBH projector, which combines solid-state RGB pure laser illumination with a dual laser phosphor system resulting in the company’s first high-brightness hybrid RGB laser projector. Sapphire is designed for any 2D application, front or rear projection, all active and passive 3D formats, and any screen type.

The Sapphire 4K40-RGBH hybrid RGB laser projector is designed to deliver visual experiences for applications including theme park attractions, live events, rental and staging, and visualization.

The Sapphire 4K40-RGBH has a 3-DLP engine and delivers vibrant DCI-P3 color, 36,400 lumens of brightness, native 4K resolution in 2D and 3D, and has front and rear projection modes. It also offers high frame rate options, from 4K at 120 Hz to 2K resolution at 480 Hz.

There are many connectivity options available with the Sapphire 4K40-RGBH. Every connection needed is built in with Christie’s latest TruLife+™ electronics: Quad 12G-SDI inputs with full-size BNC’s, four DisplayPort connections, three HDMI connections, and more.

Sapphire also offers an exclusive Infitec color comb 3D solution. Unlike traditional laser phosphor projectors, Sapphire offers superior light efficiency and a wider color gamut for brighter, more immersive 3D experiences making it the ideal choice for dark 3D theme park rides, other media-based attractions, and visualization applications.

Sapphire has ILS4 lens compatibility with all Christie^® 4K 3DLP ILS4 lenses and Christie LiteLOC technology to maintain color balance and brightness over time, regardless of fluctuations in ambient temperature. Finally, the Sapphire 4K40-RGBH accommodates warping and blending with built in with Christie Twist^™ and  optional Mystique™ camera-based alignment software.
