World’s most installed 3D projector
The Christie Mirage Series offers the first purpose-built stereoscopic
line of projectors that are the most installed 3D projectors in the
world. The series ranges from 2800 to 17,500 ANSI lumens for active
stereoscopic images from a single projector. Mirage SXGA+ models
and the new HD versions are designed specifically for use in a variety
of 3D applications for all types of immersive environments including
cubes or CAVE systems and curved or flat screen powerwalls.
Taking advantage of the proven 10-bit processing that has been used in
our 2K resolution products, the Christie Mirage HD Series of projectors
continues to exceed expectations in image quality and reproduction.
High bandwidth supports the additional functionality of Picture in
Picture with simultaneous multi-source stereo and/or mono viewing
in foreground, background or both windows.
The HD Series enables a new level of compatibility with computers
and infrastructures that display up to a full 120Hz HD active stereo
without requiring super bandwidth DVI or Analog infrastructures.
Solutions range from cost-efficient single projector systems up to
high-end solutions, with high resolution, complex applications and
multiple systems.
The S+, 3-chip, 3D projectors provide four brightness options making
them the brightest active-stereo DLP® product on the market. The
Christie Mirage HD Series sets a new benchmark in stereographic
projection as the first and only full (1920 x 1080p) HD active stereo
solution – utilized in a single projector or multi-projector array.

Three Mirage Series projectors are the core of the South Australian Virtual Reality
Center 3D visualization system.
The center is used mainly for oil and gas applications as well as research.
Inputs
Installation flexibility and compatibility with
virtually any data, video and HDTV source in
use today... from VGA to QXGA.
• RGBHV/YPbPr via 5 BNC
•
•
DVI-I for Digital/analog/RGB/YPbPr (HDCP)
One composite video, one S-Video
• Two optional slots for analog/digital modules
Three RS-232 ports and one RS-422 port
•
• On-board ChristieNET™ connectivity (RJ45)
• Built-in backlit keypad and IR remote control
From 500W to 3.0W, the Christie Mirage
Series features user-replaceable Xenon
lamp modules with adjustable lamp
power for lower brightness. The stable
color temperature over the course of the
lamp life and the power range provides
the best lamp technology for color
matching across multiple screens.
The Christie Mirage Series features an
extremely high contrast ratio of 1500-
2000:1 full field; 450-600:1 ANSI. With the
motorized IRIS, users can adjust for high
contrast ratio and better black levels, for
any given application.
A suite of optional, specifically-
designed lenses includes both fixed
and zoom lenses ranging from 0.67:1
to 7.5:1 zoom and features a durable
lens mount with motorized horizontal
and vertical offset. With quick lens
insertion, the Christie Mirage Series
is easy to work with.

ChristieTWIST™– the ultimate in total image control. ChristieTWIST™
provides users with fingertip control to expertly edge-blend multiple
images on all four sides seamlessly, or warp an image to any shape on
any surface. With blending and warping grids that are completely user-
definable and offer an extremely fine level of control, displays can take
on any shape or dimension required. And the multiple warps and blend
properties can be stored on the projector.
Louisiana Immersive Technologies Enterprise (LITE) – a joint effort
of the State of Louisiana, the Lafayette Economic Development
Authority (LEDA) and the University of Lafayette. The 61,000 square
foot complex enables users to collaborate and interact in real-time
with even the most complete computer graphics models. This first
of five phases includes an active stereo curved screen display for
audiences up to 20, featuring Christie Mirage S+4Ks and SGI’s
visualization and computing ingenuity. LITE involves partnerships
between government, universities and industry for basic research,
application development, testing and validation, product
development and commercial production, along with delivery
of visualization technologies and super-computer modeling.

Image warping and enhanced edge-blending

Direct key access to the most-used major
functions and auto set-up of sources with
correct brightness, contrast and position
means operation and set-up of the Christie
Mirage Series are intuitive.
ChristieTWIST™
Brightness uniformity control
Competitive advantages
Adjusts center-to-edge brightness uniformity
across the image – with the Christie Mirage
Series you can achieve up to 100% uniformity.
• Higher resolution - SXGA+ 1400 x 1050
or full HD 1920 x 1080
– total image control
With Christie’s image warping and edge-
blending module, you can display virtually any
image on virtually any surface. ChristieTWIST™
provides users with fingertip control to expertly
edge-blend multiple images on all four sides
seamlessly, or warp an image to any shape on
any surface.
• Twice the contrast (1500-2000:1)
•
•
Internal scaling of stereo signals
Dark interval adjustment (DIA™)
Internal warping and enhanced
edge-blending module option with
ChristieTWIST™
DIA™ gives the user a mechanism to tune the
projector’s interaction with the LCD shutter
glasses to achieve the optimum image with a
minimum of color artifacts or cross-talk between
left and right eye images. The dark interval is
the time between left and right frames when
the projector is showing black.
• Built in ChristieNET™ for networking
and control
For high-quality, larger-than-life displays, the
Primary Color Adjust (PCA™) and input/output
gamma correction will match blended images
perfectly with exact color matching between
displays. Or, warp to any shape surface – curved
or spherical screens and anything in-between.
Controlled through a user defined warp grid
and easy to use software – ChristieTWIST™
features user controllable latency of less than
one frame. With blending and warping grids
that are completely user-definable and offer
an extremely fine level of control, displays can
take on any shape or dimension required. And
the multiple warps and blend properties can be
stored on the projector.
• First and only full HD 1920 x 1080
3D projectors
• Supports full 120 Hz active HD stereo
without requiring ultra-high bandwidth
through unique video processing
Stereo sync harness
• Stereo video capable with optional
HDSDI input module on Mirage HD
Simplifying projector set-up for the end-user, the
stereo sync harness can provide projector control
of the phase of the output through the menu. This
purpose-built function for active stereo projection
supports emitters and enables left/right inversion.
Minimum delay feature
The Christie Mirage Series provides a less than
one frame delay in image processing between
input and display. This requirement is critical for
applications where user response is dependent
on the visual display, without loss of detail,
flicker or motion artifacts.
Christie’s Comprehensive Color Adjustment
provides the ability to individually adjust
actual RGB channels for even color matching
within individual projectors. This produces
true color representation across multi-screen
applications for a completely blended image.
Christie’s LiteLOC™ feature provides constant
brightness tracking and monitors lamp output.
It also automatically adjusts the power to
ensure constant, uniform brightness across
the image - on a multiple-projector screen or
multiple-screen display.

When Christie first announced their Mirage S+4K projector, VR
specialists Virtalis became an early adopter, recommending it
to the British Geological Survey. A Christie Mirage S+4K is rear
projected with a 0.73:1 lens on a 3.1m x 2.3m screen as part of
an integrated StereoWorks 3D visualization system at the British
Geological Survey’s headquarters in Keyworth, Nottingham, UK.

Japan’s National Institute for Fusion Science completed a CAVE®
VR system using four Christie Mirage 2000 active stereoscopic
DLP® projectors for their Theory and Computer Simulation
Center. The CAVE configuration comprises three soft screens for
the walls and one hard screen for the floor. Each screen measures
10-foot by 10-foot. Four Christie projectors using four mirrors
display stereo color images generated by an SGI ONYX2 graphic
workstation. The wall screen images are rear-projected and the
floor screen image is front-projected from a ceiling-mounted
Mirage 2000 projector.
