Cinema is coming home.
Step up to a new generation of immersive cinematic experiences with our latest native 4K laser projectors. BRAVIA Projector 9 elevates home entertainment to the next level, drawing on Sony’s cutting-edge picture processing technologies that harness cognitive intelligence for the most realistic, emotion-packed images yet.
Wide dynamic range with richer, more subtle graduations
The latest XR processor for projectors draws on Sony’s acclaimed BRAVIA TV technologies, harnessing advanced data processing for real-time optimisation of individual on-screen objects.
XR Dynamic Tone Mapping
Peak brightness is analysed frame by frame: tone mapping ensures that direct sunlight and other bright highlights are faithfully reproduced, while retaining fine detail in dark shadow areas.
XR Deep Black
Laser dimming is accurately controlled in dark scenes like night skies, delivering deeper, richer blacks while maintaining tone and colour accuracy.
A billion bright, beautiful colours
Faithful reproduction of over a billion colours reveals the subtlest variations in saturation and hue.
Achieve ultimate clarity
XR Clear Image processing analyses individual objects frame-by-frame, upscales all your favourite content to near-4K resolution and minimises picture noise. The results are so real ‒ it’s almost unreal!
Individually Clear
Image cross-analysis ensures that optimal super-resolution processing is applied to individual objects within each scene, for incredibly natural textures.
Intelligent upscaling
Lower-resolution images are upscaled close to 4K, drawing on a vast pattern-matching database that intelligently reconstructs lost texture and detail.
More beauty, less noise
Thanks to powerful XR Clear Image processing, picture noise is minimised through zone division and dynamic frame analysis.
Brilliant pictures powered by innovative technology
Combining the brightness of our powerful laser light source with the game-changing XR processor forthe projector delivers a uniquely immersive native 4K HDR home cinema experience.
Image Cross-Analysis
Image parameters, including colour, definition and contrast,t are analysed and processed in parallel, providing more natural artefact-free images.
Depth Mapping
Depth and texture are enhanced by cognitive technology, accentuating foreground subjects for images that look more real and natural.
Focal point recognition
The natural focal point of the picture is enhanced, drawing the viewer’s eye to the most important part of the scene.
Vivid, ultra-real colour that’s always true to life
Live Colour Enhancer technology (BRAVIA Projector 9) selectively expands tonal range for vivid HDR images without unnatural oversaturation, whether you’re watching in daylight or darkened rooms. You’ll see the difference with accurate, true-to-life skin tones and more vibrant, vivid images.
Advanced Crisp-Focused (ACF) Lens
Our Advanced Crisp-Focused Lens features a 70mm aspherical front lens element that widens the focus area, ensuring crystal clear images from corner to corner. The floating focus system uses two moving lens groups and extra-low dispersion glass for distortion-free images with accurate colour reproduction.
Smooth, responsive gameplay
Get even more big-screen gaming excitement with the latest fast-paced titles. Everything’s super-smooth, supple and responsive, giving you that crucial competitive edge when split-second reactions count for everything.
High frame rate, high resolution
Don’t miss a moment with sports andadrenaline-packed first-personn video games. Support for 4K 120fps ensures smoothly rendered gameplay that makes on-screen action even more real.
Reduced input lag
Connect a compatible games console via HDMI 2,.1 and the projector switches to Auto Low Latency Mode for responsive, fast-paced gaming excitement with reduced input latency.
Light and Compact
