DuraCore
Industry leading long lifetime is achieved using Optoma’s DuraCore technology. Implementing advanced laser diode cooling techniques and an innovative dust resistant design.
Redundant input with fast switching
The unique signal input detection function provides instant source switching in the event of the failure of the signal source device. This feature ensures an image never fails to display in mission critical installations such as control rooms, live events or other similar scenarios.
Passive 3D compatibility
Passive 3D is now available on single chip DLP laser Phosphor projectors. Thanks to the high efficiency light output, these models enable effective 3D solutions for operators to reduce total cost of ownership.
Integrated warping and edge blending processor
Integrated warping and edge blending processor enables multiple projectors to be warped and blended without additional dedicated hardware, reducing the cost & complexity of installation. Warping and edge blending is configured using either the projectors on screen display or with PC software depending on model.
*Compatible multi output graphics card with overlap function is required.
Auto Color Uniformity
Providing a quick, hassle free and more convenient setup; you can enjoy accurate color uniformity in a matter of seconds with the super-fast camera based auto color uniformity feature.
*The auto color uniformity feature is compatible with image sizes up to 300″
Auto focus (AF)
Providing a quick, hassle free and more convenient setup; you can enjoy a crystal clear image in a matter of seconds with the super-fast camera based auto focus.
*Auto focus is compatible with image sizes up to 300″
HDR compatible
Capable of receiving and displaying HDR meta data, Optoma HDR compatible projectors allow you to see far more detail and texture. Objects look more solid and life-like and the extra detail creates a greater sense of depth. It’s like looking through a window.
HDBaseT™
Uncompromising, uncompressed Full HD video, audio, network and control commands all delivered on a single CAT- type cable capable up to 100 meters/328 feet without signal loss makes installation hassle-free. HDBaseT™ simplifies cabling requirements and reduces installation complexity saving both time and reducing costs.
Metal chassis with modular design
Modular metal chassis panels and quick release screws make routine maintenance easier than ever.
Amazing color
Optoma projectors provide reliable color performance suitable for any content and environment. From accurate sRGB colors for lifelike images to vibrant punchy presentations. We have a display mode to specifically meet your needs. Perfect for a range of graphic and video presentations.
Color Management System (CMS)
Display accurate lifelike colors to best match your viewing environment. This unique feature provides you with the flexibility to fine-tune the color settings for optimal precision.
Brightness matching
A valuable feature of any professional installation incorporating more than one projector. Multiple units of the same model and similar lamp usage can be fine-tuned to give the same brightness levels; important, especially when side by side.
Constant power
Allows users to set the power levels to meet individual installation requirements. Power levels can be managed to obtain the brightest picture or longest light source life – or anywhere in-between.
Constant brightness
Advanced light sensing technology allows the setting of brightness levels that will remain unchanged over time. Ideal for ensuring constant brightness for long running installations
True AV mute
True AV mute enables the light source of the projector to be instantly switched off and on at the press of a button. Unlike standard AV mute functionality no light is emitted from the projector, this gives 100% blackout on screen.
Extreme Black
Extreme black enables the laser diodes to completly turn off when a full black image frame is detected. This feature is perfect for situations where a total image blackout is required.
Full lens shift
Simplify installation with full lens shift, which provides a wider range of projector placement possibilities. This makes it easier to position the projector in your room and enables a wider range of screen size options.
Picture by picture picture-in-picture
Signals can be delivered simultaneously via the HDMI and DVI ports, for a PbP or PiP display from two digital sources – perfect for video-conferencing and other collaborative applications.
360 projection*
With 360° projection,* images can be displayed in any orientation, giving you the freedom and versatility to install this projector in the desired location.
*For more information please refer to the user manual
Portrait projection
Ideal for digital signage applications; you can rotate your projector 90 degrees to project a portrait image.
Wide temperature operating range
Suitable for various operating environments. Robust and efficient cooling design allow the projector the ability to withstand an ambient operating temperature range of 0~122°F
IP5X Dust resistant optical engine
Independently tested and certified to IEC standard 60529 with an IP5X dust resistance rating. Outstanding dust resistance combined with exceptional brightness ensures industry leading durability; ideal for 24/7 maintenance free operation in challenging environments.
