As the leading digital imaging company celebrates another milestone with the achievement of world numberone in projectors for 16 consecutive years, Epson unveiled a series of feature-packed projectors for businesses and schools at affordable price points.
At the Projection Conference & Showcase, “Together, We Bring Imagination to Life”, held at the Shangri-La at the Fort, Epson Philippines Visual Imaging Product Manager Lyn Lizarondo pointed out how projector usage has expanded over the years, with Epson delivering innovations adapted to the fast-changing needs of multiple segments.
“This showcase highlights how Epson led innovations in visual imaging technologies even beyond the boardroom. In the past few years, we have seen how projectors have become indispensable in the home, schools, and even in big venues and the outdoors. Even as Epson took big steps in various sectors, we have continued to improve on the usage of projectors for businesses and in classrooms, by adding on features that are not available in the market at these price points.”
The new Epson projectors are equipped with an impressive 3,3000to 3,600 lumens, delivering both white and colour brightness in the same high levels. This feature is important to ensure better visibility even in bright environment, like in offices or in classrooms.

This enables end-users to easily share and transmit images, texts and files from smart devices like mobile phones, tablets and laptops.
Split screen features allow two separate image sources to be projected on a single screen, eliminating the need for a second projector. This is useful during video conferences allowing presentation images and remote participants to be shown together simultaneously.
Multi-PC projection moderator function allows connecting to up to 50 devices- PC, smartphones or others and simultaneously project onto the screen up to four (4) images. This is a significant advantage to help make meetings or classroom presentations easy and efficient.
Screen mirroring allows users to wirelessly mirror their android smart devices to the projector without the need of cables or installing any application.
Auto Power On- projection starts automatically when a signal is received from a computer or smart device even if the projector is on standby. It saves the need to turn on the power button or use the remote control.
Since 2015, Epson’s visual imaging development has remained focused on multi-sectoral usage and innovating in anticipation of evolving functions of projectors as an ubiquitous digital imaging device for business, education or lifestyle requirements.
