Working Principle and Development

Initially developed by Appotronics in 2007, ALPD technology has seen several advancements from ALPD 1.0 to ALPD 4.0. Each iteration has brought improvements in brightness, color reproduction, and speckle reduction. ALPD 4.0, the latest version, is 30% more powerful than ALPD 3.0.

This technology uses lasers and rare earth luminescent materials to support a wide color gamut in laser projectors. Theoretically, it can achieve a color gamut coverage of up to 90% of the human eye.

Many projector suppliers have applied this technology to their latest products. For example, VAVA Chroma, and Dangbei Mars Pro.
