In early March, the company announced that their SHOWWX projector, powered by the engine, was available for sale to customers in the United States<\/a> at $549.99. <\/p>\n

The pico projector<\/a> uses laser light to produce high resolution, WVGA (848 X 480) images of up to 200 inches at a 5000:1 contrast ratio, which Microvision claims is five times higher than any of its competition. The projector can be attached to a computer or smart phone. It uses no focusing knobs or optics.<\/p>\n

The company hopes to see a broad spectrum of personal and professional technology devices using the engine and projector. <\/p>\n
