Video interview with Oriol Massagué (Panasonic) an ISE 2026

Oriol Massague, Field Marketing Manager en Panasonic, analyzed in this video interview in Integrated Systems Europe (WHEREAS) 2026 some of the new features such as the PT-RQ45 projectors from 42.000 lumens; the PT-HTQ20 4K RGB laser; or the VMQ85 Series that includes the manufacturer's first 4K LCD projector. Also notable are the new DVLED screens from 55 inches and COB finish.

The amount of the new RQ45, is a three-chip DLP projector that has been designed on the RQ35 platform, the popular projector 30,000 Panasonic lumens. “Therefore, on the platform 30,000 lumens we offer 12,000 lumens more and we can reuse all the accessories, all the frames and all the optics of the RQ35”, assures Oriol Massagué. The RQ45 is the projector 42.000 lumens most compact and lightest in its category and also incorporates a LCD monitor of 5 inches for better control and monitoring of production”, duck. It also has an expansion slot compatible with Intel's SDM standard and a 12G-SDI3 input, which guarantees perfect system integration..

To offer a long-lasting reliability in demanding environments, The main circuit boards incorporate a UV coating inhibits corrosion caused by smoke and salt, while the new modular arrangement of the plates significantly improves maintenance efficiency. He dynamic digital control and his refrigeration system stabilize red laser performance in the event of temperature fluctuations to maintain consistent color output.

On the other hand, los 3 RQ45K series DLP chips, Quad Pixel Drive and multiple laser light source (two blue and one red) offer a highly accurate color with 4K resolution (3840 x 2400) smooth and detailed. Support for speeds of frames up to 240 Hz/1080p allows for fluid motion reproduction and compatibility with optional system Real-Time Tracking Projection Mapping system. Besides, the function Gradation Smoother removes color bands on the fly, while enhanced black level correction ensures seamless blending on flat or curved displays.

HTQ20, a single DLP chip comparable to three

Another relevant innovation from Panasonic at ISE 2026 it was the projector HTQ20. It is a 4K projector 20.000 single chip DLP lumens Designed to deliver the color fidelity traditionally associated with projectors 3 chips DLP, without the usual limitations of other technologies. Massagué emphasizes that it is “the first Panasonic projector to incorporate Vivid Prime technology, our new RGB laser light source with which we make a huge leap in color quality compared to traditional single chip DLP systems. With Vivid Prime we raise the color quality of the single chip DLP to the level of the three chip DLP system, with which we have more vivid colors, more precise, deeper, that is to say, more natural colors. And we add all this to the advantages of Singles chip DLP technology.: high contrast, reliability, durability, processing speed and all in a compact size”.

By combining the color reproduction of wide gamut with high luminosity, The PT-HTQ20 achieves balanced image output, where color purity and luminance are maintained simultaneously, fulfilling a fundamental requirement for immersive content.

At the heart of the PT-HTQ20 is the RGB Vivid Prime laser technology de Panasonic, which allows coverage greater than 95 % Rec color space. 2020. Unlike projectors 1 conventional DLP chip, that prioritize brightness at the expense of color performance, The PT-HTQ20 offers bright and pure colors, with a uniform brightness throughout the image. Besides, are RGB-plus-phosphor design (RGB laser combined with phosphor) Ensures smooth tonal gradations when playing standard Rec content. 709.

Vivid Prime's high-speed color change further improves image quality by effectively reducing rainbow effect, a common projection side effect that can be distracting to viewers, especially in immersive environments. The result is a more comfortable and fatigue-free viewing experience, which favors greater permanence in immersive enclosures.

New VMQ85 series

On the other hand, Panasonic exhibited the new series VMQ85, its first 4K LCD proposal. This projector has the tecnología Quad Pixel Drive de dos ejes, offering 4K output resolution. This new series of 3LCD projectors in 4K resolution incorporates an advanced architecture, focused on pixel precision and optimized using a two-axis scroll mechanism. This design minimizes distortions caused by the oscillation process, ensuring that effective pixels remain as square as possible, reducing the grid effect and offering uniform and ultra-detailed images. This is an essential advantage for immersive environments such as sports simulators and interactive experiences.

With a weight less than 8 kilos, The VMQ85 series has been designed for facilitate installation in compact or complex spaces, like simulation cabins (at ISE it was exhibited next to a golf simulator) and dedicated experience rooms. Despite its compact format, The series offers three models that reach up to 8.000 lumens and incorporate pixel-shifting technology 2 Panasonic axles.

To installations with fixed optics, VMQ85 series offers a flexible throw ratio of 1.09–1.77:1, Supports 1.6x optical zoom and wide optical shift (vertical: +44 %, horizontal: ±20 %). This provides a large adjustment range to accommodate different room sizes and configurations without compromising image alignment..

Finally, note that Panasonic presented its new screens in Barcelona MEVIX TL-55LV12A dvLED, Expanding its professional display portfolio with a large format LED solution designed to address practical specification challenges, installation and long-term operation.
