3D method
It is now possible to enjoy the excitement of 3D stereoscopic images in the comfort of your living room without using a special screen. The fast response characteristics and picture quality offered by D-ILA technology allow viewers to enjoy vivid and colourful 3D images with far less crosstalk or image ghosting.
- *Optional 3D Glasses (PK-AG1) and 3D Synchro Emitter (PK-EM1) are required for viewing images in 3D.
- Note: Keystone, anamorphic mode and some other functions cannot be used while projecting in 3D mode.
How 3D stereoscopic images are perceived
The mechanism behind 3D viewing involves binocular disparity, a unique form of depth perception used by humans that takes two different views and moulds them together into a three-dimensional object. 3D video content is created by using a special camera with two separate lenses that can record images for the left and right eyes sequentially. These recorded images for the left and right eyes are projected separately on the projector and synchronized, which when viewed by 3D glasses that darken sequentially for each eye, create binocular disparity to enable the brain to perceive them as 3D stereoscopic images.
3D formats
The DLA-X9, X7 and X3 are compatible with a variety of 3D formats including Frame Packing for Blu-ray 3D, Side-by-Side (used mainly for broadcasting), and Top-and-Bottom.
Optional Equipment
Active shutter glasses designed exclusively for viewing 3D content.
These 3D glasses are comfortable to wear and can even be worn on top of prescription glasses.

The world's first*1 projector to pass THX 3D Display Certification*2
The JVC DLA-X9/X7 is the world's first projector to be accredited for the THX 3D Certification. During the THX 3D Certification process, more than 400 laboratory tests are conducted, evaluating projector's colour accuracy, cross-talk, viewing angles and video processing to ensure the high quality 3D and 2D display performance that home theatre enthusiasts demand today. Featuring THX Cinema Modes, this projector has a simple, one button solution for optimised playback of 3D and 2D movies on Blu-ray Disc and broadcast TV.
- *1 As of November 1, 2010 under the front projector category.
- *2 Best performance screen size for 3D is 90 inches diagonal (16:9).
Notes about viewing 3D video content
- The optional 3D Sync Emitter and 3D glasses are required to view 3D images from the DLA-X9, X7 and X3. 3D video software (3D media or output of 3D broadcasts) and a 3D-compatible video player are also required.
- Perception of 3D images will vary with individual viewers.
- Stop viewing 3D images immediately if any discomfort such headaches, dizziness, eye fatigue, etc. occur.
- Viewing of 3D images by children under the age of five is not recommended.
- Read the Safety Precautions in the User Manual carefully before viewing any 3D source.
