contemporary metallic chassis. Furthermore, it has been developed for maximum

BrightEra™with Long Lasting Optics technology and a 3LCD projection system,

high brightness of 2500 lumens. This allows professional presentations to be
delivered in virtually any setting. Built-in wireless connectivity eliminates the need
for computer cables. The user experience is further enhanced by built-in Microsoft
Office Viewer™software, supporting PDF and Microsoft Office™formats, enabling
presentations to be made directly from a USB storage device. The projector also
has an embedded Windows Media Player™which supports streaming from PC,
