Full Guide to XGIMI Projector Dual Light 2.0 Technology: What, How, and Why
By Phillip Park - 2024-10
In 2024, XGIMI launched HORIZON S Pro, HORIZON S Max, and AURA 2 smart projectors with Dual Light 2.0 technology for high picture quality and eye comfort. XGIMI projectors continue to explore the perfect projection quality, balance of brightness, and viewing comfort and have already received a number of eye care certifications. The Dual Light 2.0 is a technological innovation that truly brings a good viewing experience and visual comfort to your home.
1. What is XGIMI Projector Dual Light 2.0 Technology?
Dual Light 2.0 technology is XGIMI's latest achievement in applying a "Wide Spectrum + Narrow Spectrum" hybrid light source technology. By combining both light sources, this technology managed to create a continuous natural spectrum, unleashing the full potential of both sources for exceptional picture quality in brightness, contrast ratio, color gamut, and color accuracy. The Dual Light 2.0 tech used in XGIMI projectors effectively addresses issues related to traditional tri-color lasers such as speckle and color fringe, ensuring more comfortable viewing.

2. How Does It Work?
The main Light source of the Dual Light 2.0 used on the XGIMI HORIZON S Max and HORIZON S Pro is the tri-color laser, which can greatly improve brightness, contrast, gamut, and color accuracy. At the same time, it adds a wide-spectrum light source—laser-excited fluorescence. It effectively solves the problems of speckle and color edge ginning. This is the current light source technology solution that can achieve excellent picture quality and healthy eye care.
Dual Light 2.0 Technology vs Tri-color Laser
Ordinary tri-color laser light sources in projectors using red, green, and blue lasers, can simultaneously ensure brightness, color, and contrast enhancement. But because it is a single narrow spectrum with an extremely narrow wavelength band, it will cause scattering and color edge ghosting. Though currently on the market three-color laser projections inhibit scattering. The user will still obviously feel the picture scattering, a long time watching eye fatigue is very easy.
Colored edge ghosting is the color fault separation at the edge of the image with light and dark changes in the screen, which will make text and graphics unusually harsh and blurred, especially obvious in the movie subtitles, and will bring a serious sense of vertigo when watching for a long period.
Dual Light 2.0 achieves outstanding image quality regarding brightness, contrast ratio, color gamut, and color accuracy on the basis of a tri-color laser, along with more eye-friendly and comfortable viewing. XGIMI HORIZON S Max with Dual Light 2.0 has SGS Low Blue Light Certification, Low Speckle A+ Certification, and Low Color Breakup Ratio A+ Certification, reducing glare, flicker, and eye strain effectively.
3. Why Do We Upgrade the Dual Light Tech in Projectors?
Last year, XGIMI launched the light source technology route of Dual Light 1.0, in the enhancement of picture quality. At the same time, the laser light source scattering and color edge reproduction are optimized for the human eye's imperceptible state. Nowadays, it has become a light source technology route that all brands in the projection industry are making efforts. XGIMI's Dual Light 2.0 is a technological innovation that will give you a better projector viewing experience.
Difference Between Dual Light 2.0 and 1.0 Version
Compared to the 1.0 tech, Dual Light 2.0 keeps evolving in brightness, contrast ratio, color accuracy, and color gamut. Take HORIZON S Max vs HORIZON Ultra as an example, HORIZON S Max gets a 35% increase in brightness, dynamic contrast of 1000000:1, and color gamut of 110% BT.2020. It delivers 4K enhanced image quality on a big screen.
Advantages of Dual Light 2.0 in XGIMI Projectors
To improve performance, Dual Light 2.0 technology in projectors of HORIZON S Max and HORIZON S Pro, employs two distinct light sources, combining LED and tri-color laser.
• Increased Brightness: By combining light sources, the projector's brightness may be greatly increased, making it appropriate for well-lit spaces.
• Improved Color Accuracy: A broader color range and more colorful pictures may be produced by using various light sources to improve color reproduction. The combination can result in greater contrast ratios, which enhances visual clarity and depth, particularly in dimly lit areas.
• Longer longevity: By dividing the effort between two sources and minimizing wear on each, dual light systems frequently increase the projector's longevity.
• Decreased Maintenance: Compared to conventional single-source systems, certain dual light systems are made to be more dependable and need less regular maintenance.
All things considered, Dual Light 2.0 technology improves projector performance and adaptability, making them more suited for a range of applications and viewing environments.
