Vivitek Unveils the DU7000 Series: Elevating Large Venue Projection with Unmatched Installation Precision and Image Excellence
25 October 2023, Vivitek - the visual display brand for all meeting spaces – has announced the DU7000 Series of large venue projectors. The series comprises the DU7099Z, DU7199Z and DU7299Z, each offering varying levels of brightness.
The DU7000 Series is capable of maintenance-free operation for up to 30,000 hours with stable and constant brightness and has an IP6X sealed engine design. This makes the Series ideally suited to large venues - such as auditoriums, lecture halls and sports arenas – as well as the rental and staging markets.
Enhanced brightness and performance
Through the deployment of Vivitek’s latest laser technology, the DU7000 Series provides high brightness of up to 9,600 lumens, high 3,000,000:1 contrast ratio and features great colour uniformity with vivid colour technology. The new projectors also mark a shift away from manual lenses, with support for up to nine motorised lenses, including a new short throw lens 0.47-0.50 for tight installation spaces. The DU7000 series is equipped with Lens Positioning Memory to quickly recall user-defined lens positions (lens shift) for easy setup and perfectly proportioned images.
Compared to the previous generation of models, the DU7000 Series offers power consumption savings of up to 45%, while its laser light source is good for 30,000 hours of operation in Eco Mode with continuous 24/7 operation. With built-in colour sensor technology, the projectors can automatically adjust the lighting to maintain constant and stable brightness over long periods of time.
Designed for easy installation and control in large venues
For customers in the rental and staging markets, the DU7000 Series is perfectly suited to their needs. It has the flexibility to set the rental period, with the screen image blocked automatically when the rental period expires.
The DU7000 Series offers limitless installation convenience, including camera assist colour calibration by smart phone. The projectors provide dynamic installation options - such as 360° rotation and portrait applications – allowing users to project images onto ceilings, walls, floors, or angled signage. With support for vertical/horizontal keystone and 4-corner geometric adjustment, the Series offers virtually unlimited mounting flexibility.
Furthermore, Vivitek’s PJ-Control software can be used to manage multiple projectors, helping users control viewing options, settings and scheduling, while also allowing for the adjustment of display features over a network. To enhance the convenience of handling large events, the DU7000 series offers Art-Net support, enabling seamless integration with the stage controller console for direct projector management.
Commenting on the new DU7000 Series, Holger Graeff, General Manager, Vivitek EMEA, said: “Featuring the lowest power consumption and highest efficiency available in the market, the DU7000 series provides excellent value and an array of features for large venues seeking powerful projector solutions. Once again, Vivitek is delivering performance, value and sustainability at a time the market needs it the most.”
