ViewSonic Corp., a provider of visual solutions products, has introduced a new line of laser phosphor-based projectors for home entertainment, education, and business applications. The LS Series of projectors (LS810, LS820, and LS830) features 0.25 ultra-short-throw lenses, up to 20,000 hours of operation, 100,000:1 contrast ratio, 3D-ready capabilities, and PortAll – a hidden MHL/HDMI port that allows users to stream multimedia content from a mobile device to the projector via a wireless dongle.
Designed for business and education environments where high ambient light can be an issue, the ViewSonic LS810 and LS830 ultra-short throw projectors offer high brightness levels at 4000 lumens and include the company’s proprietary SuperColor and SonicExpert technologies, delivering advanced color and enhanced sound reproduction. The LS810 is a native WXGA-based projector, while the LS830 boasts native Full HD 1080p resolution. Both projectors are engineered with flexible connectors including dual 3D Blu-Ray ready HDMI inputs, HDMI/MHL, Component, S-Video, RGB, VGA, RS232 and RJ45.
With the LS820, ViewSonic delivers a Full HD 1080p, ultra-short-throw projector featuring 3000 lumens of brightness along with SuperColor color reproduction and SonicExpert sound enhancement technologies. It also comes with a number of connectors including dual 3D Blu-Ray ready HDMI inputs, Component, S-Video, RGB, VGA, RS232, and RJ45.
“We utilized many of the LightStream-based technologies, such as SuperColor and SonicExpert to ensure that the true-to-life color reproduction and enhanced sound carry over to these new laser models,” says Aaron Campbell, product manager of projectors for ViewSonic Americas. “The LS Series carries a unique design that emphasizes style yet provides reliable and high-quality projection for up to 20,000 hours for education, corporate, or home applications.”
