Roadster S6

Christie Roadster S6 Projector

With 6000 ANSI lumens and true SXGA 1280 x 1024 resolution, this rugged, robust, and reliable projector provides outstanding image performance for both video and data.

Employing 3-chip DLP™ technology for full digital capabilities, and fitted with a digital interface, the S6 can project a digital signal from source to screen without signal conversion – ensuring a 100% digitally perfect image reproduction every time.

The S6 is fitted with Christie’s proprietary Intelligent Lens System (ILS™) for automatic recall of lens position and source parameters and LiteLOC™ feature for exclusive, full control of the projector’s programmable power supply.

The Roadster series is compatible with the widest range of sources and supported by a complete range of optional fixed and zoom lenses (with bayonet-style insertion for fast lens change). Offset and keystoning capability, combined with the system’s functional, unobtrusive design and compact size, make it the ideal system for stacking solutions.
Note: Lenses rented separately.
