WOWee ONE Launches

WOWee ONE Launches
Today at CES, WOWee ONE launched the VUE, a low-brightness, green laser-based pocket projector that can connect to iPhones, iPads, and computers and can be powered via an AC adapter. The HDCP-compliant WOWee ONE VUE has a native WVGA (848-by-480) resolution, at a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio. The projector’s rated brightness is 15 lumens, and according to the company, its contrast ration is in excess of 5,000:1. Because its light engine is laser-based, no focusing is necessary.

I havent found any official information that states the WOWee VUE utilizes the Microvision PicoP engine, however, the Microvision ShowWX and VUE look very similar!
