e-shift Technology
Technical Overview
e-shift is a proprietary technology that doubles resolution by diagonally shifting pixels by half a pixel.
It further enhances the image reproduction performance of D-ILA projectors.
We have advanced our proprietary 8K/e-shift technology, which combines e-shift with a 0.69-inch native 4K D-ILA device, to develop 8K/e-shiftX.
By expanding the shift direction from the conventional two diagonals to four—up, down, left, and right—this new system improves the ability to reproduce high-resolution 8K (8192 × 4320 pixels) images.

Technical Details
e-shift technology is JVCKENWOOD’s proprietary high-resolution display technology.
We were the first in the industry to develop 4K/e-shift in 2011.
Since then, it has continued to evolve, earning recognition for delivering near-native 4K resolution even with Full HD panels.
In 2019, we introduced 8K/e-shift, which combines e-shift with our well-established image processing technology, Multiple Pixel Control (MPC).
This combination enables Full HD (1920 × 1080 pixels) and 4K (4096 × 2160 pixels) content to be converted into ultra-fine 8K (8192 × 4320 pixels) images, reproducing intricate and lifelike visuals that closely resemble real-world subjects.

• Multiple Pixel Control Technology
Multiple Pixel Control (MPC) is a high-quality image processing technology that focuses on image blur captured by cameras.
By analyzing and correcting this blur with a proprietary algorithm, it restores the image closer to its original appearance.
Unlike conventional band-based processing, MPC emphasizes high-frequency image detection, achieving both ultimate realism and natural smoothness, and delivering the clarity and depth unique to high-resolution images.
After MPC processing, images are upconverted through 8K/e-shift, effectively doubling the amount of visual information.
This enables even higher-resolution and more realistic image reproduction.
