Epson has announced eight new additions to its business projector series lineup in Singapore.

These latest products are designed to meet needs in both the business and education settings, providing companies and schools with higher quality video conferencing devices or tools for learning.

The EB-L260F, EB-770Fi, and EB-770F, for instance, display in both 16:6 and 21:9 aspect ratios to complement the content that needs to be displayed.

Meanwhile, the EB-L260F and EB-L210W can cover up to 300 inches in some distances.

The projectors also have a brightness display range of 4,000 to 4,600 lumens, so meetings or lessons can be easily projected across common backdrops or blank surfaces under different lighting environments, without the need to prepare a display area for projector use.

All products use Epson’s laser light technology, for up to 20,000 hours of maintenance-free use so companies can utilize the projectors’ life for a long time.

Interactive, hassle-free

Furthermore, Epson’s iProjection app allows users to project up to four devices within the same network. The app can also quickly change the source devices through a remote control function.

The 16:6 projectors have interactive functions as well that support Epson’s Graphical User Interface (GUI). This allows seamless collaboration between people through the display of toolbars on both sides of the screen.

If users want to refer to an existing document while it is projected on screen, the document camera can shift the position of the document on display easily.

Lastly, the projectors can accommodate a smart stick with AC power so organizers do not have to connect long cables for power sources anymore.
