Comparison of ColorBoost3D & OthersUnlike technology which use just 3 primary colors (R/G/B) to produce image, Acer projectors used up to 6-segment color wheel design, which offered brilliant mid-tone performance that is the key to provide lifelike images and color reproduction.

Acer projectors outperform its competitors counterpart in -Correct color saturation-Better color reproduction for life pictures-Perfect color uniformity for accurate image

Acer projectors outperform its competitors counterpart in -Higher contrast ratio-Good shadow detail in dark level-Smooth color level even when using lower resolution projectors
