Advanced Projector & Professional Display Technology to Support Immersive Experiences
PT-RQ35K Series 3-Chip DLP® SOLID SHINE Laser Projectors: Consumers continue to crave immersive
experiences that are both shareable and memorable. Understanding the demands for captivating
content, simplified setup and remote functionality, the PT-RQ35K was designed to deliver stunning, eyecatching visuals with blue and red laser technology, 30,000lm of high brightness and 4K resolution
quality – all within the smallest and lightest form factor in its class(1)
. The PT-RQ35K Series significantly
reduces logistics and installation hassles with several new features and workflow improvements,
including the ‘Smart Projector Control’ application and Near Field Communication function. These
features make it easy to read and change basic setups just by holding a mobile device against the
projector’s touchpoint. Since events can happen across many environments, both indoor and outdoor,
and at any time of day, the new Remote Preview function makes it possible for users to check the
content signal remotely via multi-media control software or a web browser. The PT-RQ35K 4K (3840 x
2400) resolution with Quad Pixel Drive On and PT-RZ34K WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution will be
available December 2020.

PT-RZ990 Series 1-Chip DLP® SOLID SHINE Laser Projectors: Entertainment, exhibition and museum
guests, as well as House of Worship congregations want to feel like they are immersed in the
experiences they are attending, and projection technology can help achieve that. The bright, vivid colors
and excellent white-balance accuracy from the PT-RZ990 Series laser projectors provide realistic, clear,
crisp and high-quality color-rich image reproduction putting guests at the center of the action. In many
cases, installation is challenging because of hard to reach locations. Panasonic’s Smart Projector Control
feature allows users to leverage the on/off function and make adjustments to the lens via a smartphone.
The PT-RZ990 Series projectors are reliable and capable of virtually maintenance-free 24/7 operation for
up to 20,000 hours with air-tight, dust-resistant optical units and a new filter-free cooling system. The
PT-RZ990 Series projectors provide exceptional flexibility and are compatible with a wide range of our 1-
Chip DLP lens options. Customers can also choose the best model for their brightness needs from
6,000lm to 9,400lm. All models deliver WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution and are available in black or
white cabinets. Availability will be October 2020.

SQ1H Professional Display Series: Even in challenging outdoor locations, guests attending live events
expect visually stimulating experiences. For entertainment venues with limiting ambient lighting, the
SQ1H Series has an increased panel brightness of 1000cd/m2 to ensure high-quality, clear, crisp content
can be displayed even when installed in bright spaces. Available in 86- and 75-inch models, this series is
capable of 24/7 operation. The Series also allows for easy and flexible set up with DIGITAL LINK, based
on the HDBaseT standard, connecting video, audio and control signals to external devices with a single
LAN cable. The SQ1H Series also features the Intel® Smart Display Module (SDM) slot, making it possible
to customize the display and its connectivity for a customer’s production and environmental needs. The
SQ1H Series will be available February 2021.

SQE1 Professional Display Series: Delivering high-quality and reliable information needed in lobbies,
entertainment venues, transportation facilities and commercial spaces is imperative. The SQE1 Series
provides sharp, clear, easy-to read 4K content and compliments the current SQ1 Series with the addition
of Wi-Fi connectivity. The displays are offered in a wide range of sizes, from the large 98-inch model to
the 43-inch model, making them suitable for vertical installation and 24/7 operation. The SQE1 Series is
also equipped with the Intel® Smart Display Module (SDM) slot as well as a wide range of terminals
(HDMI, DisplayPort [In/Out], USB type-C, etc.) and can be easily connected with various playback
equipment and expansion boards. Built-in speakers are featured for playing content with audio. The
SQE1 Series will be available starting October 2020.

Professional Video Solutions for Live Productions
KAIROS: As end users increase the amount of remote streaming content they consume, they prefer
experiences that are rich and engaging even though they are not taking place in person. Live events can
be made more easily accessible by incorporating technology that supports in-person interactions and
remote streams simultaneously. KAIROS is a new IT/IP video processing platform that offers an open
architecture system for live video switching with maximum CPU/GPU processor utilization for virtually
unlimited ME scalability as well as resolution and format independence for complete input and output
flexibility. As a native IP, ST 2110 system, KAIROS supports transitions to live uncompressed IP workflows
and can eliminate the constraints of dedicated hardware. KAIROS creates new production opportunities
involving a mosaic of IT ecosystems with a variety of COTS components from vendors in multiple
industries. KAIROS will be available Summer 2020.

AW-UE100 PTZ Camera: To further support remote operations, productions will continue to need more
camera shots from a smaller on-site crew, and remote PTZ robotic cameras will provide that option. The
AW-UE100 is the industry’s first 4K/60P PTZ camera to support such a wide variety of IP transmission
protocols, including high-bandwidth NDI, high-efficiency NDI|HX and Secure Reliable Transport (SRT),
which maintains stability when transmitting high-quality video, even in unstable network environments.
The camera has a newly designed direct drive motor for smooth pan and tilt movement, a wide-angle
lens with a horizontal angle of view of 74.1 degrees and 24x optical zoom. With online video
consumption growing year over year, streaming is making up an increasingly large portion of that
content. Using the RTMP/RTMPS function, the AW-UE100 PTZ can stream directly via a single cable to
live broadcasting services such as YouTube Live and Facebook Live. The camera also includes the FreeD
protocol to incorporate realistic virtual studio sets and elements into a live video workflow. The AWUE100 will be available August 2020.

AK-HC3900 Studio Camera: To deliver engaging experiences, picture quality must be crisp and clear, so
HDR and 4K are becoming increasingly popular requirements for live production. In an expansion of its
AK series studio/field camera line, the cost-effective AK-HC3900GJ/GSJ 1080p HDR studio camera
system offers upgradability to native 4K 60p/50p. The HC3900G includes a full simultaneous HDR/SDR
feature set, expanded multi-format capability (1080: 59.94p, 50p, 59.94i, 50i, 29.97PsF, 25PsF, 23.98PsF;
720: 59.94p/50p) and future optional upgrade for 4K 60p/50p production. The AK-HC3900GJ/GSJ
captures its raw image from an internal 4K imaging system to deliver its stunning HD HDR images with
ITU-R BT.2020 wide color space. The internal 4K capture also means the future optional 4K system
upgrade will yield a full 2000 TV Lines of horizontal resolution. The AK-HC3900 will be available Fall
2020.
