Brighter, vivid projection

White brightness alone cannot bring the true colours you see every day. While other manufacturers of 1-chip DLP technology believe they can improve image quality by just increasing the brightness of their projectors’ white light output, Epson ensures that its projectors combine brightness and true colours to create vibrant and realistic images with 3LCD technology across every projector model.

3LCD technology

All Epson projectors are based on 3-chip LCD technology for amazing colour, incredible detail and solid reliability. 3LCD’s 3-chip architecture dedicates an entire chip to process each primary colour – red, green and blue, continuously. Unlike single-chip technology that delivers colour sequentially, you get full-time colour. The result is vibrant, realistic images and video all delivered with 3LCD’s true-to-life colour.

Up to 3 x brighter colours with Epson projectors

Epson projectors use 3LCD Engines that have no colour wheel with a white segment and therefore don’t force a trade-off between white and colour brightness.

In fact, Epson projectors have up to 3x Brighter Colours than their leading competitive 1-chip DLP projectors.

If you are looking for business and education projectors or 720p home entertainment projectors, know that choosing Epson projectors means up to 3x brighter colours. If you are looking for 1080p home entertainment projectors, you consistently get 2x and up to 3x Brighter Colours than competitor 1-chip DLP projectors.

HIGH IMAGE QUALITY

• Brilliant images in any setting – Powered by 3LCD technology and Epson’s laser optical engine, the Epson L690U series is capable of producing white light and colour light output of 6,500 lumens in WUXGA resolution, delivering captivating images in virtually any venue. While the light weight and compact size of these projectors enable them to be carried from room to room, they are also capable of highly visible images thanks to high brightness and a superior 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio.
• Large image size – While conventional panels are limited to a pre-determined height and width, projectors have no such constraints. With the image size expanding up to 500″, your audience can easily read and understand the information you’re sharing.
• Super-resolution with detail enhancement – Get a crisper and sharper image with advanced image features on the Epson L690U. Super-resolution defines edges for standard and HD content, while detail enhancement refines surface detail for true-to-life images. With advanced digital processing, visibility of image displays such as small letters and patterns improves and the sharp edges create crisper images for a more immersive experience.
• Scene adaptive gamma correction – The Epson L690U offers high visibility in any environment with image quality adjustment features, such as scene-adaptive gamma correction. This feature analyses images frame-by-frame and automatically adjusts the gamma level to project at the optimum contrast. Natural-looking images are achieved by controlling crushed blacks in dark scenes and clipped whites in bright scenes.

ADVANCED INSTALLATION FEATURES

• Manual lens shift, zoom and focus – The manual lens shift2 covers a wide range, offering a great deal of flexibility when installing the projector.
• HDBaseT and diverse connectivity – Cutting-edge HDBaseT technology means just one single CAT-5/6 cable carries Full HD video, audio, network and control commands up to 100 metres to accommodate large venues. No need for additional cables, signal repeaters or added labour.
• NFC functionality – NFC functionality enables communication with smart devices even when the projector is switched off and can be configured and checked easily from the Epson Projector Config Tool on a smart device. This means initial configuration can be carried out at the warehouse before transportation, reducing the work hours needed for installation and helping to reduce adjustment time when multiple projectors are being installed.
• 360 degree projection – The Epson L690U can be rotated 360° in any direction for off-axis positioning flexibility. As a result, they can be used for a wide range of applications, such as projecting on the ceiling or floor, or as part of a rear-projection system. Epson technology keeps the projector running without compromising performance or causing overheating.
• Compact design – Weighing around 9 kg, the Epson L690U series projectors boast a compact and lightweight design. They offer exceptional flexibility and easy installation
• Multi projection – Powered by cutting-edge 4KE technology, the Epson L690U series projectors deliver stunning image quality with seamless blending, precise stacking, and advanced colour calibration – perfect for creating immersive visual experiences.
• Edge blending – Enhance the experience with seamless panoramic, multi-screen images that blend edges by matching colour and brightness perfectly, even in areas that overlap.
• Point correction – Make smooth adjustments of distorted projection images by shifting each of the points laid out on the grid pattern.
• Colour uniformity – Keep images consistent and maintain images that have become uneven over time between multiple projectors with manual colour correction function.
• Epson Projector Professional Tool (EPPT) – Setup multiple projectors straight out of the box with new large venue application software. Epson Projector Professional Tool allows you to adjust and control images projected on a network with high-end projector setup features such as geometry correction, image layout adjustment and edge blending by pairing with ELPEC01 external camera. Exclusively bundled to Epson laser projectors, large scale presenting has become much easier and flexible with automation.
