Panasonic HTQ20 – 4K Laser Projector for Immersive Experiences
February 19, 2026The new HTQ20 laser projector from Panasonic marks a technological breakthrough in professional 1-Chip DLP projection. Delivering an impressive 20,000 lumens of brightness, true 4K resolution, and support for the Rec. 2020 colour gamut, it achieves image quality typically associated with 3-Chip DLP – in a more compact and flexible design.
The model was unveiled at ISE 2026 in Barcelona and is developed for museums, experiential environments, exhibitions, and other professional AV environments where both colour accuracy and brightness are critical.
3-Chip Quality – Now in a Compact 1-Chip Laser Projector
Traditionally, 3-Chip DLP projectors have been recognised for superior colour precision. With the HTQ20, Panasonic brings this level of visual performance into the 1-Chip segment – without the traditional limitations.
At the core is the newly developed VIVID PRIME™ RGB laser light source, which:
- • Delivers 20,000 lumens of high brightness
- • Provides over 95% coverage of the Rec. 2020 colour gamut
- • Ensures vivid, pure colours without sacrificing brightness
- • Reduces rainbow effect
- • Creates a more comfortable viewing experience
In practical terms, this means stronger colours, higher contrast, and a more natural image – even in demanding installations.
4K Resolution and Smooth Colour Gradation
The HTQ20 laser projector delivers 4K image quality via Quad Pixel Drive technology. Combined with the enhanced Gradation Smoother function, this provides:
- • Smooth transitions between colours and shadows
- • More uniform colour reproduction across the entire image
- • More realistic rendering of both digital and cinematic content
This makes the projector ideal for immersive environments, digital art, and high-end corporate installations.
Professional Reliability and Flexible Installation
The HTQ20 laser projector is engineered for continuous operation in demanding environments.
Key features include:
- • Up to 20,000 hours of maintenance-free operation
- • Multi-Laser Drive Engine with redundancy
- • Backup Input for critical installations
- • Dust-resistant circuit board protection
- • Compatibility with Panasonic D3 lenses
- • Intel SDM slot for expansion modules
- • Support for the Smart Projector Control App
- • Integration with Panasonic Visual Software Suite
The result is lower maintenance costs and high operational reliability – even in permanent installations..
Designed for Immersive and Experience-Based Environments
With its combination of high brightness, wide colour reproduction, and stable performance, the HTQ20 laser projector opens new possibilities within:
- • Museums and exhibitions
- • Experiental environments
- • Events and scenography
- • Simulation and visualization
- • Corporate showrooms
- • Theme parks and attractions
By fully leveraging the Rec. 2020 colour gamut, this laser projector sets a new standard for visual experiences in professional AV equipment.
Panasonic HTQ20 is expected to be available in Q4 2026.
