3LCD Achieves Projection Industry Milestone: 90 Million Chips Shipped

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- 3LCD, the world's leading projection technology has surpassed 90 million chips shipped, a ground-breaking achievement in the projection industry. A trusted partner and industry leader for nearly 25 years, 3LCD is the choice technology for projection needs worldwide and powers the majority of education, business and home theater projectors.

In 2013, 3LCD showed continued leadership in the Americas front projection market among traditional projector buyers[3] – those looking for projectors touting 500 Lumens or more.  

"This has been a paramount year for 3LCD and we could not have achieved 90 million chips shipped without the unfailing support of our manufacturers and customers," said Tim Anderson, senior product marketing manager for 3LCD. "The milestone further supports our market leadership positioning and commitment to quality and we're excited to see what's in store for the future."
