Optoma has unveiled the first projector on the market certified with Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and Filmmaker Mode.
The DLP brand introduces the HCPro-4400 4K UHD projector, powered by Dolby Vision technology to meet the needs of the professional installation market and home cinema enthusiasts.
The HCPro-4400 delivers 4K UHD visuals and replicates the same image quality of Dolby Cinema in theatres.
Users can enjoy their favourite movies, TV shows and live sports with 3,200,000:1 contrast ratio and 5,000 lumens, measured in accordance with ISO 21118.
For greater visual detail and depth, HDR10+ enhances dynamic range and colour precision.
Filmmaker Mode
The HCPro-4400 will feature Filmmaker Mode via an over-the-air update by the third quarter of 2025 (July-September).
This option allows users to preserve the director's creative intent using tailored temperature, colours, contrast and motion.
The HCPro-4400 is calibration-ready with ISF day and ISF night display modes for various lighting conditions.
Experienced customers and calibrators can adjust the projector's image quality using 11-point RGB White Balance, CMS (Colour Management System), and RGB Gain/Bias.
Visual enhancement
The PureEngine Ultra, crafted by Optoma's colour specialists, enhances saturation, luminance, detail and contrast.
PureMotion advanced frame interpolation technology and motion control processing work together to eliminate blurring and image judder for smooth visuals even during fast-paced action.
Installation benefits
The HCPro-4400 features instant startup and shutdown, eliminating the need for lamp replacement.
For simple installation, the model comes with easy-to-use geometric correction, 1.6x zoom, vertical and horizontal lens shift and 360° freedom.
Elevated audio
The projector includes Dolby Atmos via eARC to provide multidimensional sound from an external soundbar or AVR.
Additionally, 3D sound format supports this theatre-like audio in the home.
The HCPro-4400 boasts a WiSA SoundSend Certification for seamless compatibility with the award-winning WiSA SoundSend wireless audio transmitter.
