BenQ has a new line of colour-accurate digital laser projectors

The BenQ LU9715 digital laser projector.

BenQ, the global brand in digital light processing (DLP) and interactive displays, has announced a new line of laser projectors for large-venue corporate, professional, and educational applications.

According to BenQ, large business venues, museums, exhibition halls, and boardrooms will appreciate the 24x7 continuous operation capability. Daren Low, Senior Product Manager, BenQ Singapore, explained that low-maintenance requirements are a plus point when the projectors are typically mounted at heights which are relatively inaccessible, and would need scaffolding to be erected every time maintenance is required.

The colour-accurate digital laser projection line features the LU9715 and LU9235, both of which offer BlueCore Laser technology for full 360° and vertical projection, support for 24x7 operation, and ultra-bright output of 8,000 and 6,000 ANSI lumens respectively.

Dual-array laser light sources provide superior, long-lasting image quality. The LU9715 even delivers a guaranteed 20,000 hours of perfect performance at 8,000 ANSI lumens brightness. BlueCore laser technology allows for complete control of light output under any conditions. This allows for ultra-high 100,000:1 contrast ratio and auto-adjustable brightness to reveal every detail of the darkest images and video scenes. The LU9715 and LU9235 also feature spontaneous response with no wait time required to turn on or resume projection from a blank screen, achieving true black for zero light intrusion.

“Our blacks are very black even on standby mode,” Low said.

Adaptability is enhanced with features like 360° rotation and portrait orientation for a variety of installation choices. High-quality all-glass construction ensures ultra-clear focus and high apertures for brighter images in venues of every size.

Motorised zoom, lens shift, advanced geometric correction, and optional lenses are among the options available. Up to eight lens options are available to cater to a wide range of installation configurations.

BenQ interactive flat panel makes education, collaboration a breeze

BenQ, the global brand in digital light processing (DLP) and interactive displays, is offering a new interactive flat panel (IFP) that combines a 4K Ultra HD whiteboard, annotation, and collaboration solution into a single platform.

With the RP750K, BenQ has created an interactive flat screen display that taps into the dynamic possibilities of classroom or commercial training and collaboration scenarios. A Germ-Resistant Screen protects users, while preinstalled annotation tools encourage participation.

The RP750K Germ-Resistant Screen is infused with a multilayer coating of durable, non-toxic nano-ionic silver. This coating kills most germs that can accumulate on screen surfaces, preventing cross-infection. The ionic silver’s antimicrobial ability remains effective even after thorough cleaning and long periods of use.

The 75" IFP’s health-conscious design features continue with Smart Eye-Care for a smooth and comfortable viewing experience. An embedded motion sensor automatically activates flicker-free and low blue light features when movement is detected near the screen. Daren Low, Senior Product Manager, BenQ Singapore, said the blue light control results in displays which are gentler on the eye while the nano-ionic silver on the glass disrupts the cell division mechanism of most bacteria and viruses. The panel also features an anti-glare treatment to reduce eyestrain and offer more legible content.

The Android-based panel comes with proprietary BenQ software that increases productivity. Instructional tools include the EZWrite 4.0 whiteboard solution with handwriting recognition. EZWrite supports scribbling and will also recognise characters and shapes. Ideal for educational and team-building applications, EZWrite has a stopwatch, scoreboard for multiple teams and support for a buzzer that gives the floor to the 'first responder', said Low.

The InstaQShare collaboration solution allows participants to share information and collaborate on the fly through wireless mirroring between the display and devices. A mobile device may take control of the IFP while the screen can be broadcast to up to 16 other mobile devices, if the network permits it.

“BYOD is quite mature nowadays. It's very practical in a commercial environment,” Low said.

The IFP also supports video recording, Microsoft Office, a floating toolbar, and Data-to-Go, a feature which saves annotations as images and allows the images to be shared for review material. The content can be accessed by QR code, email, or as a hard copy and appears electronically in PDF form.

The stylus accessory, called the NFCPen, works through near field communications (NFC) technology and does not need a battery. Two are included with each IFP. A swipe of the palm will erase what's on the screen.

The RP750K is germ-resistant, eye-friendly and anti-glare.
