The VPL-FHZ55 is the world’s first 3LCD Laser Light Source Projector. Sony launched the new projector for Asia in Singapore today. Priced at S$7,999 and available in black or white chasis in Asia Pacific by August 2013.
The Sony VPL-FHZ55 is the world’s first 3LCD Laser Light Source Projector. Price: S$7,999.
The VPL-FHZ55 is a WUXGA-class (1920 x 1200) installation projector based on a blue laser light source, and is the world’s first 3LCD laser projector.
I was impressed by a demo of the projector in action in a fully lighted room. The resolution was detailed while the colours were extremely vivid and accurate.
The picture quality was good enough for home entertainment use although the projector is targeted mainly at business and corporate use.
Capable of achieving 4,000 lumens, it is one of the brightest projectors of its kind, and delivers a range of performance capabilities that eliminate many issues associated with conventional lamp-based projection.

HP’s new data center network fabric is built on HP FlexNetwork architecture, enabling business agility for clients by delivering two times greater scalability and 75% less complexity over current network fabrics while reducing network provisioning time from months to minutes.
Pricing and availability within.
HP FlexiFabric 11908, FlexiFabric 12916 and FlexiFabric 12910 SDN switches.
As companies move to a cloud environment, legacy network architectures are buckling under the pressure for instant access to applications and services that offer a high-quality user experience.
“For the past 20 years, data center networks have lagged in supporting new enterprise demands for cloud, virtualisation and big data,” Morten Illum, vice president and general manager, HP Networking, Asia Pacific and Japan.
Organisations are struggling with the complexity of current data center network fabric designs, which require manual device-by-device configurations and limit the performance of bandwidth-intensive applications.
