00:02 They're taking it literally to a whole new level
00:04 with ISA 5.0.
00:06 So continuing on with our CES 2024 coverage,
00:10 we're here with Xchemia to learn more
00:12 about their brand new projectors coming out this year,
00:14 some of the cool technologies
00:15 and why you'd want one for your setup.
00:17 (upbeat music)
00:20 At its core, we're seeing Dual Light 2.0,
00:23 which takes a triple laser light source, the RGB,
00:26 through a phosphor filter.
00:28 This is designed to combine the strengths
00:29 of LED light sources, which have rich color,
00:32 but often aren't very bright,
00:34 as well as laser light sources, which are bright,
00:36 but generally struggle with color reproduction.
00:39 There's a lot of science that goes into this,
00:40 but essentially Xchemia has developed a full color LED lamp
00:44 that matches the wavelength band of the laser
00:47 so that it can deliver the benefits of both
00:49 without canceling each other out.
00:51 It's this increased brightness
00:54 and better color reproduction
00:55 that has given the Horizon Max its IMAX
00:58 enhanced certification.
00:59 (upbeat music)
01:02 All right, so these aren't the most comfortable chairs,
01:06 but they do light up, so I can kind of forgive it, I guess.
01:09 We've seen ISA previously,
01:12 but they're taking it up literally to a whole new level
01:14 with ISA 5.0.
01:16 One of the coolest things is that we have
01:17 a built-in gimbal here.
01:18 So we have controls built in,
01:20 just using our remote controller here.
01:22 You can just quickly move this.
01:24 And then if you switch back to the screen,
01:26 you can just see how quickly I'm able to adjust the placement.
01:29 - Well, I think we should go check out
01:31 the ISA 5.0 demonstration,
01:33 just so you can see the gimbal in person.
01:34 - Sure.
01:35 - It's definitely some fun tech up in here.
01:41 I'm excited to show you the gimbal in action.
01:43 - I see three buttons.
01:44 - Three buttons.
01:45 - Which one do I press?
01:46 - All right, so watch that gimbal.
01:50 It's gonna automatically find the projection spot
01:52 that we customized and programmed it to find.
01:55 (upbeat music)
01:57 One thing I'm gonna show you is just,
01:59 you know, the Horizon Max up close.
02:01 The gimbal in action, obviously,
02:03 can rotate 360 degrees around this way,
02:05 and then kind of can rotate all the way up
02:07 if you wanna have a slumber party with friends
02:08 and you wanna be laying down on the ground
02:10 and watch your perfect show on the ceiling,
02:12 you can do that.
02:13 And then really, you can mount it to a ceiling as well.
02:15 So up here we have, you know,
02:17 that one kind of flipped upside down,
02:19 mounted from the ceiling,
02:19 which shows a different bit of a different angle,
02:21 different use case for consumers.
02:23 (upbeat music)
02:24 Now, moving on from the Horizon Max,
02:26 we're going to check out another upcoming release
02:29 called the Aladdin.
02:30 This is a short throw, 1080p, 60 Hertz projector.
02:34 Certainly not as impressive as the Horizon Max,
02:36 but it's three-in-one design allows it to be more hidden
02:39 and fit in tighter spaces more easily.
02:41 This is a ceiling light, a smart projector, and a speaker,
02:44 and it doesn't take up much more space
02:46 than a traditional light fixture.
02:50 So I see the projector facing this way,
02:54 but how are we getting an image over here?
02:56 - It looks like a ceiling light to me.
02:57 - I was gonna say that was a ceiling light,
02:59 but now I'm seeing something illuminating
03:00 out of the front there.
03:01 - Oh yeah.
03:02 - Can we see it turned on?
03:05 - Absolutely.
03:06 I'm gonna turn it on here.
03:08 Pretty bright.
03:09 - Yeah.
03:10 - You can adjust the brightness on the projector
03:11 so you can dim it a little bit.
03:12 I'm gonna show you the warm.
03:14 So we have cool, and now we're gonna go to warm.
03:16 It's bringing just a little bit of brightness into the room.
03:18 - That's pretty cool.
03:19 - It's optical, which is cool.
03:20 No pun intended.
03:21 - Yeah.
03:22 The other really cool thing about this
03:26 is because the light is projecting
03:28 from above and downwards,
03:30 if children wanted to interact with this and be like,
03:32 "Oh, how tall am I compared to like the emperor penguin?"
03:34 They don't have to worry about the light
03:36 shining in their eyes and obstacle avoidance and all of that
03:39 because it's a little bit more safe up there.
03:41 I'm also noticing that we have some Nintendo Switch stuff.
03:45 - We do.
03:46 So XJimmy actually created Suica Game,
03:49 which is an exciting game for Nintendo Switch.
03:51 So it's very addicting.
03:53 - How many hours have you played so far?
03:55 - I can't disclose that information.
03:57 - Ooh.
03:59 - And is this going on like a timer
04:00 or do I just have to be strategic about it?
04:02 - You just gotta be strategic about it.
04:04 - Oh!
04:05 - I haven't seen that one before.
04:07 All right, this is super addicting,
04:09 but I gotta get out of here.
04:10 We can't wait to see these in 2024.
04:12 So stay tuned for our full reviews.
04:13 And until the next one, we'll catch you later.
