BenQ Selects REON-VX HQV Processing

San Jose, CA–{June 7, 2006}–BenQ has selected the Reon-VX HQV processing engine to power its new WXGA (1280×768) DLP projector. The SP820 projector will be available in Q4 2006.

“We were impressed with Silicon Optix because of their landmark HQV technology and their commitment to innovation and image quality. The Reon-VX HQV processing engine delivers incredible image quality for both high-definition (HD) and standard-definition (SD) material,” stated Peter Chen, Vice President of BenQ Corporation and General Manager of Digital Media Business Group.

Reon-VX HQV processing encompasses true 10-bit video processing, full four-field per-pixel SD/HD motion-adaptive video deinterlacing, SD per-pixel temporal-recursive noise reduction, SD codec (mosquito and block) noise reduction, and SD/HD per-pixel detail enhancement.

The BenQ projector will also take advantage of Reon-VX’s exclusive advanced real-time warping and scaling engine to scale resolutions for correcting extreme keystone angles in both horizontal and vertical dimensions, or for projecting on curved or warped surfaces while maintaining full image integrity.

“We are delighted with BenQ’s decision to adopt HQV technology, and look forward to a very positive long-term relationship between our two companies,” stated Paul Russo, Chairman and CEO of Silicon Optix.
