DLP vs 3DLP: What's the difference?

DLP technology usually refers to a single-chip DLP projector with a built-in DMD chip, and 3DLP technology has three built-in DMD chips, so 3DLP technology can bring brighter images and richer colors.

Digital Light Processing (DLP) technology works by reflecting light through miniature mirror plates called Digital Micromirror Devices (DMDs). Each DMD consists of millions of miniature mirrors, each acting as a single reflected pixel in the resolution of the projected image.

The original HD resolution image consists of 1080 horizontal lines, each containing 1920 pixels. Similarly, a DLP projector with HD resolution will use 1 or 3 DMD chips, consisting of 1080 rows of mirrors, each row containing 1920 microscopes. Higher quality projectors use three chips, which is 3DLP, each for the red, green and blue signals.

Since the core of DLP projector is DMD, which is also a high-cost component, the price of projectors with 3DLP technology is higher.
