The 3D home entertainment trend has not died down yet. Acer has a pair of new projectors equipped with NVIDIA 3D Vision technology ready for us: the H5360 and X1261.

Both of the new Acer projectors have an illumination level up to 2,500 ANSI lumens, a vertical refresh rate of 50-120Hz, and can have a 16:9 aspect ratio. However, the aspect ratio needs to be readjusted on the X1261, which normally has a 4:3 ratio. The projectors are also built with NVIDIA 3D Vision power, which needs to be paired with active-shutter glasses to get the full experience.

Here's how the specs on the two Acer projectors look:

H5360 (pictured above)

  • Can project 720p HD videos at a 1280 x 720 resolution
  • 3,200:1 contrast ratio
  • HDMI port
  • Three RCA jacks
  • Component video port
  • S-video mini DIN
  • 2.5mm audio mini-jack
  • 15-pin D-Sub for a PC analog signal
  • Price: $699.00

X1261 (pictured below)

  • XGA resolution
  • 3700:1 contrast ratio
  • Component and Composite video ports
  • S-video mini DIN
  • Stereo mini-jack
  • Price: $579.00

And if you can't wait to get your hands on a 3D-equipped projector, both of these are available in the U.S. now.
