The new R-Hybrid Light Source technology produces clear and brilliant colors while providing the same great cost-saving benefits of Casio's previous technology including a service life of up to 20,000 hours without the need to change a lamp. Additional features include a 1.7X zoom lens, WUXGA resolution, and Casio's suite of connection and presentation solutions, Educational Solutions.

CASIO EDUCATIONAL SOLUTIONS
Casio's newest projectors deliver convenience and outstanding operating performance that presenters will appreciate thanks to Casio Educational Solutions. This valuable system comes standard with 2019 Casio LampFree Network models – including the new Superior Series as well as the 2019 Advanced and Ultra Short Throw models – saving IT Managers even more money because they can get a lot of the functionality of a stand-alone system provided at no additional cost with these new projectors.


Built-in features include:

  • Auto Input Search: Eliminates the need to set the input port. Presenters simply plug the PC into the projector, power it on, and start their presentation immediately.
  • Auto Projection Off: Enables presenters to transition from one meeting/lesson to the next by putting the projector into stand-by mode.
  • Countdown Timer: Helps presenters manage time more effectively.
