Dramatic Visuals
Take Production to New Heights Deep, Smooth, and
Dimensional 4K1 Images
Quad Pixel Drive produces
smooth 4K1 images with fascinating depth. The
technology meets demand for absolute visual realism
in immersive spaces (particularly museums and 360�
projection mapping) by creating detailed images
without visible pixels or pixel-gridding, even when
viewed up close. Engage your guests in the creator�s
world with a true-to-life visual experience that
brings the whole story to life.
Rich Color Enhancer
for Vivid, Accurate Colors
Rich Color Enhancer is an
original colour optimization technology with two
selectable modes. Dynamic Mode balances
brightness and colour for clear image visibility
in bright environments. Standard Mode optimizes
colour reproduction by expanding red-channel
output, leading to more naturally vibrant red
expression. This is critical for the accurate
reproduction of artwork and other color-rich
content.
Gradation
Smoother to Reduce Color Banding
Gradation Smoother
reduces banding in gradients of shaded
colour that can become evident in images
that lack enough colour bit-depth. Use the
projector remote to select from three levels
of image correction depending on how much
banding is present, or disable the function
when it�s not needed. Gradation Smoother is
a lifesaver when banding is apparent in the
projection, and there�s no time to re-edit
the content.
Evolved Dynamic
Contrast
In addition to a
higher 25,000:11
contrast ratio, Evolved Dynamic Contrast gains
new scene analysis circuitry that more
accurately recognizes light and dark areas of
the image. The difference between black, white,
and contrasting colours stands out more
dramatically than ever before. It minimizes
dimming when projecting contrast-rich content
and makes black deeper and whites brighter. Each
video frame is analyzed in real-time, and light
output is continuously adjusted to meet the
precise contrast requirements of each scene.
Detail
Clarity Processor 4 Improves Image Clarity
and Sharpness
Detail Clarity
Processor 4 analyzes video signal frequency
bands for each scene, extracting
distribution information of ultra-high,
high, mid, and low-frequency components.
Panasonic�s unique image quality correction
circuitry then applies optimal processing
enhancement to each area of the screen.
Building on the capabilities of Detail
Clarity Processor 3 available on previous
Panasonic 1-Chip DLP� projectors, Detail
Clarity Processor 4 significantly improves
the sense of clarity, making fine details
seem crisp, sharp, and lifelike.
Adjust Black
Levels on Curved Screens
Achieving uniform
black levels inside blended areas on
curved screens has always been
difficult. This is because the screen's
curvature distorts the width of the
black borders that define the adjustment
area. Panasonic answers the problem with
flexible black-level adjustment to suit
arbitrary screen shapes. You can use up
to 17 control points to reshape black
borders so they fit the screen
symmetrically without distortion. Black
levels can be set precisely within a
half-pixel margin, so blends are
indiscernible even when viewing the
screen at close range.
Adjust
Black Levels Inside and Outside the
Image Display Area
Panasonic�s
black-level adjustment has evolved to
eliminate distracting black-level bumps
that can appear in blends outside of the
image display area after geometric
adjustment is applied. By unlinking
black-level adjustment from geometric
adjustment, black-level settings can be
applied to the entire blend, including
the image overlaps outside the image
display area, for a completely seamless
multi-screen image.
Smooth
Playback of 2K/240 Hz1 Content
REQ12
Series can play 2K/240 Hz1 video
with an input-to-output latency of
just 6 ms2,
smoothly reproducing fast-moving
objects and action sequences with
minimal blur. High-speed 2K/240 Hz1 content
can be displayed over multiple
screens with edge-blending enabled,
making REQ12 Series ideal for
sharing gameplay action with
audiences at eSports events or for
any application where fluid motion
and fast response are important.
REQ12 Series also supports
Panasonic�s optional ET-SWR103 Real-Time
Tracking Projection-Mapping System.
This ready-to-use Software
Development Kit (SDK) works with
infrared cameras to enable image
projection onto fast-moving objects
at 2K/240 Hz1,
enabling the seamless combination of
digital and analog worlds in your
interactive XR attraction.
Supports Widescreen Input Signals
Single-chip DLP� projectors are
a popular choice for bringing
on-site and remote teams
together in hybrid conferencing
spaces. The latest
video-conferencing software can
output a 21:9 signal to a REQ12
Series projector so that the
faces of remote participants
appear along the bottom of the
screen at eye level with those
seated in the room. This
improves communication fluency
among members of the group. In
addition, with more games,
films, and other immersive
content produced with a 21:9
aspect ratio, it makes sense to
invest in a projector that can
deliver a cinematic experience.
Effortless Workflow,
Improved Expandability
Works with All-New
Lens Lineup
REQ12 Series works with
an all-new lineup of
optional fixed, zoom,
and ultra-short-throw
zoom lenses for selected
Panasonic 1-Chip DLP�
projectors, making it
possible to deliver
immersive experiences in
spaces of any size. The
lenses, which improve
native contrast
performance by as much
as 16%1,
expand the range of
powered lens-shift
adjustment over previous
lenses. They feature
Lens Memory and Auto
Lens Identification
functions and now offer
powered periphery focus
adjustment2 operable
via remote control or
the Smart Projector
Control3 app.
Wide Scalability with Intel� SDM-ready
Slot
Intel� SDM-ready
slot integrates optional
proprietary or
third-party1 function
boards. These reduce
installation complexity
and make it easier to
adapt, scale, and expand
your projector�s
connectivity to suit
different applications
and event-site
infrastructure. The
projector works with
Panasonic�s DIGITAL LINK
Terminal Board
(TY-SB01DL), 12G-SDI
Terminal Board
(TY-SB01QS), 12G-SDI
Optical Function Board
(TY-SB01FB), and
Wireless Presentation

Board (TY-SB01WP), as
well as selected
third-party1 PC
boards, terminal boards,
and AVoIP boards.
Import and Save
Your Custom Test
Patterns
In addition to 10
built-in test patterns,
you can now import and
save up to three custom
test patterns to the
projector. You can save
your preferred test
patterns or use your
client�s content to
calibrate the projector
before the video source
is connected. Access
compatible BMP or PNG
image files saved to USB
memory via the Test
Pattern menu, where they
can be saved, renamed,
or deleted using the
projector remote
control.
Smart
Projector Control1 App
Smooths Your Workflow
Smart
Projector Control1 app
simplifies projector setup and
operation. Connection is easy: just
scan the QR Code2 displayed
in the projector�s OSD menu with
your smartphone camera. You can
control up to 64 projectors
simultaneously and adjust settings
without needing to project the OSD
menu. You can select test patterns,
adjust lens settings via the new
lens-control UI, lock brightness,
and perform focus adjustment using
your smartphone camera3 from
distances of up to 30 m (98 ft)4 away.
For more information, visit the
Smart Projector Control webpage.
Save Prep
Time Before Setup with NFC Function1
NFC
function allows you to prepare your
projector for installation and setup
at the event site when AC power is
unavailable or when OSD projection
isn�t possible. Just place your
phone on the NFC decal to connect,
and use the Smart Projector Control2 app
to read and write settings such as
Projector ID and IP address.
Projectors can be prepped for
immediate network connection and
setup the moment power rolls out on
the installation site, saving time
and resources. After the event has
concluded, projector settings can be
reset to factory defaults while
unplugged, an action that used to
require OSD menu projection.
Flexible Screen Adjustment via
Remote Control
Free Grid
lets you easily fix image
distortion caused by uneven
projection surfaces or objects
on flat or curved screens using
the projector remote control.
Reshape the image by adjusting
control points or V/H lines on
an overlaid grid. Select from
various grid resolutions between
2 x 2 and 17 x 17 lines
depending on the precision you
require. Work progress is saved
automatically, and grid and
control-point colours can be
changed for best visibility over
the background image.
Preactivated Upgrade Kits for Geo
Pro1 Software
REQ12
Series ships with preactivated
licenses for upgrade kits that
come bundled with our free
Geometry Manager Pro1
software. ET-UK20 Geometry
Manager Pro Software Upgrade Kit
expands the software�s
functionality and adds
sophisticated edge-blending,
colour uniformity, and masking
tools. ET-CUK10 Auto Screen
Adjustment Upgrade Kit uses data
from a connected camera2
to automatically calibrate
edge-blended areas by adjusting
their brightness, colour, and
black level, saving you the time
and hassle of manual
calibration.
Quickly Find the Correct Projection
Angle
Laser
projectors can be installed at any
angle through 360� to map images
over floors, walls, and 3D objects.
However, adjusting the projection
angle to match the one specified in
the design simulation can be tricky,
especially if the projector is
difficult to reach. REQ12 Series
features a gyro sensor that detects
changes to the projector�s body
pitch and roll angles and displays
the information graphically in the
OSD settings menu. Installers no
longer need assistance to check the
projection angle as the body is
adjusted. They can view the
on-screen graphic and adjust the
projector angle as necessary before
securing the unit.
New Cabinet Design for
Reliable Operation
Dust-Resistant Optical Engine
and Liquid Cooling System
REQ12 Series features an
optical engine and laser
light source module
compliant with the IP5X Dust
Protected (IEC 60529)1 standard,
eliminating the need for an
air filter and enabling
20,000 hours2 of
maintenance-free projection.
Reliability is proven by
accelerated dust-chamber
testing in significantly
dustier conditions than
those in which some
competitive products are
tested. A refined
liquid-cooling system
enables continuous operation
in dusty environments with
significantly lower noise
levels than the previous
series, ideal for quiet
spaces such as museums. In
addition, the stylish new
cabinet design blends
unobtrusively into the space
to minimize distractions.
Remote Preview LITE for Monitoring
During Events
Remote
Preview LITE lets the
projectionist confirm
connectivity and assess image
adjustment changes prior to
video projection by viewing
thumbnails of the input signal
on a laptop. This is useful at
events such as live concerts
where opportunities to check
content on screen are limited
due to soundchecks, sunlight on
the screen, and other logistical
factors. Accessed via software
or web browser, Remote Preview
LITE works with the projector in
Standby1 or
with the shutter on and reduces
the chance of errors before the
performance.
Backup Input Redundancy
Two
identical signals can be
simultaneously transmitted to
HDMI 1 (Primary) and HDMI 2
(Backup). If transmission to the
primary input is interrupted,
the projector switches to the
backup automatically in a
minimum of 0.3 seconds without
screen-blanking. This layer of
insurance gives greater peace of
mind during events where image
display can�t be interrupted.
Highly Reliable Multi-Laser Drive
Engine
Multiple
laser modules are equipped with
our unique Failover Circuitry
technology. In the unlikely
event a single diode fails,
Failover Circuitry continues to
supply electricity to the
functional diodes in the series,
minimizing brightness loss. If
the same issue were to occur in
projectors without Failover
Circuitry, all diodes in the
module might shut down,
resulting in a significant loss
of brightness.
