  • Casio claims Command of the LampFree Projector Segment

    Casio launched it first hybrid laser-phosphor projector almost a decade ago. The company expected to gain a cross-over into the private user market. But the overblown whites low contrast,1280x800 resolution and poor colors, made LCD HT specific projectors like the Epson TW-2900, a far more attractive and cheaper option.

    Two years ago Casio launched its first larger projector, offering 5000 lumens, based on the large Coretronics XPR 4K DLP prorojector platform. Competing with the BenQ laser phosphor home Theater projector.

    The smaller projectors also looked very acceptible when demoed on the ambient booth.

    Casio hasn't sold lamp-based projectors for years. Its market is the business projector market.

    According to PMA Research, Casio's market share within the lamp-free projector category has increased by 68 percent over the past three years. Casio also had the highest unit share gain (55 percent) compared to other leading projector brands. Casio's commitment to the industry is displayed through its full line of projectors including portable, multi-purpose, high brightness and ultra short throw units that are equipped with a variety of features fit for a multitude of environments. Casio's projectors offer a variety of capabilities that will illuminate any room and aid in the creation of lively presentations and dynamic lessons.

    "We pride ourselves in delivering innovative, affordable, high-quality projection solutions that ease the stress of presenters and IT managers," said Joe Gillio, Senior Director Strategic Planning and Marketing of Casio's Business Projector Division. "Casio boasts the largest portfolio of lamp-free projectors available, and since their introduction, businesses and schools across the United States have integrated Casio's LampFree projectors into their presentation environments. We are pleased with the progress we've made and will continue to raise the industry standard for LampFree technology for years to come."

    Casio's latest LampFree projector lineup – the Superior Series offers brightness up to 4000 lumens and is outfitted with the Company's next generation, mercury-free Laser and LED hybrid light source – the R-Hybrid Light Source. 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 for 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.
    Template Function: Increases efficiency during meetings and presentations.
    Mirror Mode: Reverses images to show form and movement.

    Casio's new Network models also offer a Moderator Function, enabling presenters to select another presenter from anywhere in a room and project their PC onto the screen. Data and presentations from other devices can be shared via a wireless connection with ease. Using Casio's One Click Connection feature, presenters can effortlessly connect to a room's projector with minimal time loss. IT managers simply create the icon for connection in advance and upload it on any shared server or cloud system. Presenters then add the icon on their devices and click to wirelessly project content without having to re-install the projector for each use.
