Mitsubishi’s Tiny DLP Pocket Projector

The new PocketProjector not only weighs just under a pound, it’s small enough to fit in the palm of your hand or in a coat pocket.* Although it comes with an AC power cord (and a protective slipcover), an optional battery base is also available – making it a perfect projector to take with you on one of those primitive “see the wilderness” camping hikes through the Adirondacks. Or, if you’remore of the sedentary type, you can use it to watch whichever game you’ve got the most money riding on with a few friends and a couple of beers in the backyard.

Built around one of the latest DLP chips from Texas Instruments, the PocketProjector uses three Lumileds LEDs (one each of red, green, and blue) to produce an SVGA (800 x 600 pixels) Enhanced Definition image. The LED light source offers multiple benefits including instant on/off, negligible heat output, and a 20,000 hour rated lifespan. With an average usage of 5 hours per day, the LEDs are expected to last over 10 years.
