Tokyo, June 18, 2008 – SANYO Electric Co., Ltd. (SANYO) announces a new projector, the LP-XP200L, featuring rich and true color reproduction thanks to the world’s first^*1 4LCD optical engine, the brightest luminance of its class^*2 at 7,000 lumens, and a built-in Active Maintenance Filter (AMF) system with the industry’s longest-use time^*3 for easy maintenance. The new projector will be available in the Japanese market starting from September 24, 2008.
　About the new projector and its technology, Dr. Keiichi Yodoshi, SANYO Digital Systems Company Vice President, said, “With the addition of the new ‘Color Control Device’ in the optical engine, the problem typically associated with brighter projectors losing vivid colors is significantly improved upon. Now, with increased demand for projectors with greater brightness, market needs can be answered without sacrificing rich and beautiful color reproduction, in turn allowing sharper, better displays in brighter event halls, large meeting rooms, as well performing magnificently in digital signage and advertising situations.”

- First in the world equipped with the new 4LCD optical engine with an independently controlled
‘Color Control Device’ added to liven up colors over conventional models
- New optical engine design overcomes obstacle of color-loss with increasing brightness typical of 3LCD by up to 20% over previous models
- Bright and real color reproducibility that can be vividly demonstrated in the digital signage market

- Equipped with high-output, single lamp optical engine technology that realizes higher light efficiency, all at the highest brightness for its class^*2 at 7,000 lumens
- Projections now possible in brighter environments, in large and brightly-lit conference rooms and halls
<Examples of use in digital signage (electronic advertising)>
 - Displaying fruit and vegetable commercials at supermarkets
 - Showing off touring spots for travel destinations at travel agencies
 - Projecting cosmetics images at department store

- Filter is industry’s longest^*3 lasting: approximately 10,000 hours (cartridge lifecycle is approximately 2 years^*4)
- Filter automatically senses when airflow is obstructed by dust, and advances to a clean filter by reeling cartridge to new filter
- Easy to replace, with one-touch cartridge and side-loading access
- One cartridge has the equivalent of 10 filters, lightening the burden of maintenance

- Advanced dark scene image representation, classes highest contrast ratio of 2200:1
- To prevent light from entering the presenter’s eyes when in front of the projected image, a special mechanical shutter has been included behind the lens, open/close controllable with the remote control, which will temporarily darken the screen
- Projector can be installed at any angle of 360 degrees, allowing ceiling or floor image projection
- Simple installation with advanced right/left, up/down lens shifting function and centered lens layout

Outline and Background
　For fiscal year 2008, projector shipments to the global market are estimated to be around 6.4 million units. By 2010, the projector market will expand, due to expected continued growth and expansion (according to company studies), reaching a record-breaking shipment of 8.8 million units.
　As this market expands, the market and use for mid-sized projectors for digital signage (electronic advertising), large meeting or conference rooms as well as large event halls is also expected to increase, and users will want projectors that can cleanly and beautifully project images.
　In answer to these expanding needs, SANYO has created the 4LCD LP-XP200L, which allows bright luminance to meet bright venue needs as well as extremely rich color reproducibility for smooth and real image projection. Additionally, with the added ‘Active Maintenance Filter’, maintaining the projector is simple.
