Viewing 3D Images
The projector provides 3D images to a user wearing commercially available DLP
®
Link compatible LCD shutter eye-
glasses.
CAUTION
Health precautions
Before viewing, be sure to read health care precautions that may be found in the user’s manual included with your
LCD shutter eyeglasses or your 3D compatible content such as DVDs, Blu-rays, video games, computer's video
files and the like.
To avoid any adverse symptoms, heed the following:
- Do not use LCD shutter eyeglasses for viewing any material other than 3D images.
- Allow a distance of 2 m/7 feet or greater between the screen and a user. Viewing 3D images from too close a
distance can strain your eyes.
- Avoid viewing 3D images for a prolonged period of time. Take a break of 15 minutes or longer after every hour
of viewing.
- If you or any member of your family has a history of light-sensitive seizures, consult a doctor before viewing 3D
images.
- While viewing 3D images, if you get sick such as nausea, dizziness, queasiness, headache, eyestrain, blurry
vision, convulsions, and numbness, stop viewing them. If symptoms still persist, consult a doctor.
Features for 3D image viewing
The 3D feature supports the DLP
®
Link system, one of 3D systems called the LCD shutter glass method. 3D viewing
is achieved by using dedicated LCD shutter eyeglasses to view left and right eye images alternately projected on the
screen. The LCD shutter eyeglasses compatible with the DLP
®
Link system are used for viewing 3D images by syn-
chronizing to the switched timing of the reflective synch signals, which are included in left eye and right eye images,
reflected from the screen.
LCD shutter eyeglasses (recommended)
Use DLP
®
Link compatible LCD shutter eyeglasses. We recommend you to use X102 Series manufactured by XpanD.
