Delta Electronics Wins 2009 Computex Taipei Design and Innovation Award Organized by iF – International Forum Design

Taipei, Taiwan, June 1, 2009—Delta Electronics, Inc. today announced that its HT-8000, the world's fist Full HD LED Home Theater DLP® Projector, has been awarded the 2009 Computex Taipei Design and Innovation Award organized by iF – International Forum Design, in the optoelectronic display and digital audio/video product category. As a "green" product using LED technology as a light source, the HT-8000 projector operates with a carbon footprint 30% less than similar projectors that use a conventional light source.

"Delta is very pleased to receive the 2009 Computex Taipei Design and Innovation Award organized by iF for developing the world's first 1080p high performance LED-based home theater projector. This projector offers eco-friendly and energy saving design, superior image quality, and an attractive exterior design. Delta is making breakthrough innovations that are key to developing the next generation of projection display technologies," said Mr. C.H. Ko, general manager of the Display Solutions Business Unit of Delta Electronics.

Delta's HT-8000 is the world's first 1080p home theater projector powered by an LED light source. With LED technology and over 20,000 hours life-cycle, there is rarely a need for lamp replacement, which is often necessary for traditional projectors. The image quality of the projector's full HD resolution plus saturated color and dynamic contrast is extremely impressive. The LED light source also augments the color gamut of the display and enriches the color fidelity of the projected image to provide a more theater-like viewing experience.

The elegant design of the HT-8000 is accented with brushed aluminum to emphasize the projector's high-performance, posh styling and professional features. Delta is honored to display the prestigious award together with this product at the 2009 Computex in Taipei at the TWTC Nankang Exhibition Hall from June 2~6, 2009.
