Panasonic  PT-REQ80 Projector

Smooth and Dimensional 4K Video

Quad Pixel Drive produces smooth 4K1 images with a fascinating sense of depth. It meets the demand for absolute realism in immersive production spaces by creating detailed 4K1 images without visible pixels or gridding, even when viewed up close. Captivate your guests with an engaging visual experience that illuminates the creator’s world and elevates your storytelling.

Rich Colour Enhancer Brings the Creator’s Work to Life

Rich Color Enhancer is an original 2-mode color optimization technology. Dynamic Mode balances brightness and color for clear visibility in bright environments. Standard Mode optimizes co lor reproduction by expanding red-channel output for vibrant red expression. This is critical for the accurate and immersive reproduction of artwork and other color-rich content.

Evolved Dynamic Contrast Deepens Immersion

With a higher 25,000:11 contrast ratio, Evolved Dynamic Contrast boasts new scene analysis circuitry that accurately detects light and dark areas, making the difference between black, white, and contrasting colors stand out dramatically.

Remove Banding with Gradation Smoother

Gradation Smoother reduces banding in shaded color gradients, which can become evident in images lacking sufficient color bit depth. Use the projector remote to select from three correction levels depending on banding severity or disable it when unneeded. Gradation Smoother is a lifesaver when banding is apparent, and there’s no time to re-edit the content.

Adjust Black Levels on Curved Screens

Panasonic solves the challenge of black-level uniformity in blended areas on curved screens with more flexible adjustment catering to arbitrary screen shapes. Up to 17 control points can be used to reshape black borders for symmetrical fitting without distortion. Black levels can be precisely set within a half-pixel margin for seamless blends, even at close viewing range.

Flexibility and Expandability for Timesaving Workflow

PT-REQ80 responds to complex productions with expanded functions, interfaces, and options that streamline workflow. New lens lineup improves native contrast, adds powered peripheral focus, and expands lens-shift range. Intel® SDM-specified slot integrates proprietary or third-party function boards to adapt and scale connectivity. You can import custom test patterns, use NFC function to prep for network connection without AC power, and save time with preactivated upgrade kits for Geo Pro software.

All-New Compact Body Supports Maintenance-free Projection

The Panasonic PT-REQ80 is equipped with an hermetically sealed optical block and all-liquid cooling sourced from our 3-Chip DLP™ platform, enabling 20,000 hours of maintenance-free operation. Backup Input prevents screen-blanking by instantly switching to a secondary signal if the primary is disrupted, and high brightness is maintained if a diode fails thanks to Multi-Laser Drive Engine failovers.

Works with an All-New Lens Lineup

Works with new optional motor-driven fixed, zoom, and ultra-short-throw zoom lenses, making it possible to deliver immersive experiences in spaces of any size. The lenses improve native contrast, minimize flare and color blur, and have a wider lens shift range than previous designs. Lens Memory and Auto Lens Identification functions are included, and for the first time, powered periphery focus adjustment is now supported via remote control or the Smart Projector Control2 app.

a centered lens design, makes installation easy to plan. Positioning the ceiling mount, screen and projector can be performed individually and independent of one another. 

Smooth Playback of 2K/240 Hz Content

REQ80 can play 2K/240 Hz video with an input-to-output latency of just 6 ms, smoothly reproducing fast-moving objects and action sequences with minimal blur. High-speed 2K/240 Hz content can be displayed over multiple screens with edge-blending enabled, making the REQ15 Series ideal for sharing gameplay action with audiences at eSports events or for any application where fluid motion and fast response are important.

The projectors also support Panasonic’s optional ET-SWR10 Real-Time Tracking Projection-Mapping System. This ready-to-use Software Development Kit (SDK) works with infrared cameras to allow image projection onto fast-moving objects at 2K/240 Hz, enabling the seamless combination of digital and analog worlds in your interactive XR attraction.

3D

Immerse yourself in vibrant colors, stunning detail and amazing depth. Have you ever been so immersed in what was on your TV that you felt like you were actually there? That’s the feeling you get every time you experience 3D on a 3D Ready Projector. The on-screen world literally comes to life with imagery you can reach out and touch, and depth that’s unmistakably real-all from the comfort of your living room couch.

Wide Scalability with Intel® SDM Standard-Compatible SLOT

REZ15 Series works with optional proprietary and third-party function boards that insert into its Intel® SDM standard-compatible SLOT, making it easy to adapt, scale, and expand your projector’s connectivity. For a list of compatible function boards, please click here.

Lens Shift - Horizontal /Vertical

The convenience of the horizontal/ vertical lens shift systems deliver perfectly proportioned images despite installation or placement challenges in any venue.

Networking and control

Loaded with the Wired LAN network control. You can operate and manage the projector via network. Featuring a wide range of options you can remotely control and monitor the projector.

• AMX
• ART-NET
• Crestron

Optional Wireless Connectivity - AJ-WM50

As many people frequently have meetings and make presentations, improved connectivity of a projector is more important than any other function. The Projector provides an advanced wireless environment with innovative Wireless Display, so it increases work productivity

Import and Save Custom Test Patterns

Register custom images to the projector for use as test patterns, start-up logos, and no-signal screensavers.

Smart Projector Control App Smooths Your Workflow

In addition to supporting device connection via wireless LAN, which is common to the REQ15 Series, the REQ15 model also exclusively supports a new USB Connect Control function. This function enables device connection via USB cable, with the app simulating the projector’s OSD settings menu on the device screen. Other functions include test pattern selection, shutter control, Web Control UI access, lens settings adjustment, brightness locking, and focus adjustment via the device camera from distances of up to 30 m

Save Prep Time Before Setup with NFC Function

NFC function allows you to prepare your projector for setup at the event site when AC power is unavailable or OSD projection isn’t possible. Just place your phone on the NFC decal to connect, and use the Smart Projector Control app to adjust settings such as Projector ID and IP address. Prep for network connection and setup the moment power rolls out on the site, avoiding delays. After the event, projector settings can be reset to factory defaults while unplugged, which used to require OSD menu projection.

Geo Pro Automates Adjustment and Blending

Offers built-in geometric adjustment tools, including a point-based Free Grid function to correct localized screen distortion. It includes preactivated licenses for upgrade kits with Geo Pro software, comprising the ET-UK20 Geometry Manager Pro Software Upgrade Kit, which expands functionality and adds sophisticated line, shape, and bitmap masking tools, and the ET-CUK10 Auto Screen Adjustment Upgrade Kit, which automates edge-blending including brightness, color, and black level calibration via a camera.

Quickly Find the Projection Angle with Angle Monitor

Supports 360° projection angles, enabling image mapping on floors, walls, and 3D objects. However, aligning the projection angle with the design simulation can be challenging and requires two people. The projectors feature a gyro sensor detecting changes in the projector’s pitch and roll angles, graphically displayed in the OSD settings menu. Installers can adjust the projection angle without needing assistance.
