Last year, Philips Projection took to Indiegogo to open a conversation with potential buyers on the development of a compact projector named the PicoPix Max. Now the company is adding two more models to the lineup.
Philips says that the new additions benefit from a freshly reworked user interface, the implementation of a special algorithm sees fan noise reduced by 20 percent and speed optimized, and cinema professionals and acoustic engineers have fine-tuned the image and sound.
The smallest and lightest of the new PicoPix models is the 5.42 x 4.35 x 2-in (138 x 110.5 x 51-mm), 1.32-lb (600-g) Micro 2. It features DLP display technology with an OSRAM LED light source reported to last for more than 20,000 hours, and can throw up to 80 diagonal inches at 16:9 aspect from 60 inches (200 cm) away from the wall, though offers a 854 x 480-pixel image resolution and 600:1 contrast ratio only. So it’s not going to complete with the latest laser projectors from Epson, Samsung or Sony, but such mighty models certainly can’t be considered even relatively pocket-friendly, and they cost a whole lot more than this PicoPix model.
