JVC Claims 8K x 4K D-ILA Projection Device

JVC is claiming to have developed a new 1.75-inch LCOS-enabled D-ILA device that can project a 35-megapixel image, 8192 x 4320 pixels in all. The Super Hi-Vision device projects images at roughly 17 times the resolution of today's high-end projectors and HDTV's, the result of a new production process and pixel structure for finer pixel display. Not expected to hit the consumer market for a couple of years yet, we expect the new projection device will be expensive to say the least. To give you an idea of what we mean by expensive, take a look at the pricing of some of JVC's higher-end projection devices currently on the market: the DLA-HD1 projector based on a 0.7" 2K1K D-ILA chipset priced at $4600, the DLA-HD100 sells for about $6000, and the professional 4096x2400 pixel DLA-SH4K projector is priced at a whopping $142, 500. All's we have to say is that you better start saving your pennies.
