XR Dynamic Tone Mapping

XR Dynamic Tone Mapping optimizes brightness frame by frame, using the responsive laser light source. This brings the director’s full vision to life in every shadow and light. Our advanced HDR tone-mapping and SDR upscaling, informed by our production expertise, deliver vibrant and lifelike visuals with smooth gradations.

XR Deep Black

Leveraging the ultimate blacks and powerful adaptive laser light source brightness control, our XR Deep Black technology analyzes and enhances dark scenes. Enjoy deeper blacks without sacrificing colour expression or specular highlights, for more realistic and immersive scenes.

Wide and detailed colour reproduction

Experience all the world’s colours with XR Triluminos Pro. With an ultra-bright, 3,400-lumen laser light, the BRAVIA Projector 9 reproduces astonishing colour volume for realistic and compelling colours in every scene.

XR Triluminos Pro

Adapted from our acclaimed BRAVIA TVs, XR Triluminos Pro deeply scans colour composition at the pixel level, remapping saturation and brightness from a palette of over a billion colours. Complemented by high brightness technology, it expands colour volume and sharpens details, delivering breathtaking, true-to-life images that push the boundaries of projection technology.

Wide colour gamut and high brightness

A wide colour gamut is nothing without the precise control to deliver it across luminance levels. Our wide colour volume reproduces 95% of the cinema benchmark DCI-P3. As brightness increases, the colour volume expands, preserving vivid hues without washing out, even at peak brightness.

Live Colour Enhancer

Witness colours as they were meant to be seen with Live Colour Enhancer. Unlike other projectors which can suffer from washed-out images, especially in ambient light, our advanced algorithms use our cinematic expertise to re-balance colours perfectly. Tones are selectively enhanced to deliver the full vibrance of a sunset or the brilliance of neon lights, while maintaining natural skin and organic tones and cavernous blacks. Bring every scene to life with striking realism.
