DP70 is a model of motion picture projector , of which approximately 1,500 were manufactured by the Electro-Acoustics Division of Philips between 1954 and about 1968 . It is notable for having been the first mass-produced theater projector in which 4/35 and 5/70 prints could be projected by a single machine , thereby enabling wide film to become a mainstream exhibition technology , for its recognition in the 1963 Academy Awards , which led to it being described as " the only projector to win an Oscar " ( though this is technically incorrect , because the award was actually a Class 2 Oscar Plaque ) , and for its longevity : a significant number remain in revenue-earning service at the time of writing ( February 2014 )
