Optoma unveils enhanced version of its award winning GT1080 gaming projector

More depth, more detail

GT1080Darbee

Gamers can now experience extraordinary levels of depth, clarity and realism with the new Optoma GT1080Darbee projector, just launched.  Building on the success of the popular GT1080, the new projector boasts integrated DARBEE Visual Presence™ image enhancement technology. It also features Enhanced Gaming Mode with a 16ms response time for a fast response in games that depend on reaction time.

A short throw lens design allows the GT1080Darbee to be placed on a coffee table and project a stunning 100 inch Full HD 1080p image on a flat surface or screen from just over a metre away. Its bright 3000 lumens produce vivid colours - perfect for playing action-packed games or watching TV shows, live sports and movies in any living space.

Optoma EMEA’s Head of Marketing, Joe Ahmed, said: “We’re excited to launch our first short throw lens design projector to feature DARBEE Visual Presence™ technology, which is exclusive to Optoma projectors. The end result is revolutionary and never-before-seen levels of depth, clarity, object separation and realism for an immersive and lifelike viewing experience.”

The Enhanced Gaming Mode setting is designed to optimise the projector for lightning response times, maximum contrast and vivid colours. This captures every detail, leaving gamers time to simply focus on winning.

Two HDMI inputs are a huge benefit of the GT1080Darbee. Games consoles, Blu-ray players or digital television set top boxes can be simultaneously connected via HDMI, making switching between sources literally the push of a button. MHL connectivity makes it easy to wirelessly share content from MHL devices such as the Optoma HDCast Pro, Roku's streaming stick, tablets and smartphones to connect directly to the projector to playback music and video, view pictures and even share webpages and other user generated digital media content.

For added convenience, the GT1080Darbee comes complete with an integrated speaker that delivers powerful 20W audio, with exceptional sound quality. Despite the small dimensions of the projector, the level of audio created will easily fill a living space. An audio output is also included, enabling connection to external sound systems.

A full specification sheet for the GT1080Darbee together with information on the full product range, brochures and images of the projectors are available from www.optoma.com
