Christie Digital Systems Mirage Series Projector User Manual


 
Direct key access to the most-used major
functions and auto set-up of sources with
correct brightness, contrast and position
means operation and set-up of the Christie
Mirage Series are intuitive.
Christie’s LiteLOC™ feature provides constant
brightness tracking and monitors lamp output.
It also automatically adjusts the power to
ensure constant, uniform brightness across
the image - on a multiple-projector screen or
multiple-screen display.
ChristieTWIST
– total image control
With Christie’s image warping and edge-
blending module, you can display virtually any
image on virtually any surface. ChristieTWIST™
provides users with fingertip control to expertly
edge-blend multiple images on all four sides
seamlessly, or warp an image to any shape on
any surface.
For high-quality, larger-than-life displays, the
Primary Color Adjust (PCA™) and input/output
gamma correction will match blended images
perfectly with exact color matching between
displays. Or, warp to any shape surface – curved
or spherical screens and anything in-between.
Controlled through a user defined warp grid
and easy to use software – ChristieTWIST™
features user controllable latency of less than
one frame. With blending and warping grids
that are completely user-definable and offer
an extremely fine level of control, displays can
take on any shape or dimension required. And
the multiple warps and blend properties can be
stored on the projector.
Brightness uniformity control
Adjusts center-to-edge brightness uniformity
across the image – with the Christie Mirage
Series you can achieve up to 100% uniformity.
Dark interval adjustment (DIA
)
DIA™ gives the user a mechanism to tune the
projector’s interaction with the LCD shutter
glasses to achieve the optimum image with a
minimum of color artifacts or cross-talk between
left and right eye images. The dark interval is
the time between left and right frames when
the projector is showing black.
Stereo sync harness
Simplifying projector set-up for the end-user, the
stereo sync harness can provide projector control
of the phase of the output through the menu. This
purpose-built function for active stereo projection
supports emitters and enables left/right inversion.
Minimum delay feature
The Christie Mirage Series provides a less than
one frame delay in image processing between
input and display. This requirement is critical for
applications where user response is dependent
on the visual display, without loss of detail,
flicker or motion artifacts.

Christie’s Comprehensive Color Adjustment
provides the ability to individually adjust
actual RGB channels for even color matching
within individual projectors. This produces
true color representation across multi-screen
applications for a completely blended image.
