Epson unveils ultra portable projectors

Bengaluru : Epson
unveiled two ultra portable multimedia projectors. Weighing 1.8kg, the Epson
EB-1725 (XGA) and 1735W (WXGA) projectors are able to achieve up to 2000:1
contrast ratio. Both projectors, which feature 3,000 ANSI lumens of brightness,
offer users the options of delivering either standard or widescreen
presentations.

To establish the wireless
connection set-up for the first time, users of the Epson EB-1725 and 1735W
projectors simply have to insert the USB key into the projector, and then into
the notebook.

The USB key will automatically
detect and reconfigure the notebook's network settings and within seconds, the
user will be able to commence the presentation. The original network settings
will be restored when users remove the USB key from the notebook after the
presentation.

For those who are often on the
move or who may still prefer to establish a wired connection, a single standard
USB cable now allows to send sound — besides images — from the notebook to
the Epson EB-1725 and 1735W projectors, thus reducing set-up time and also
eliminating the need to carry a bulky VGA cable around.

In addition, instead of
navigating the pages of PowerPoint slides through the notebook, users of the
Epson EB-1725 and 1735W projectors can now do so from any part of the conference
room or classroom by using the 'page-up' and 'page-down' buttons on the
remote control. It can connect up to four projectors with a remote notebook or
computer.
