Optoma intros ultra compact DuraCore ZW350e projector

Optoma has announced a new DuraCore laser projector, the Optoma ZW350e. The ultra-compact, high brightness WXGA laser projector is intended for medium-sized exhibition venues, events, conference rooms and trade shows.

The ZW350e guarantees up to 30,000 hours of low-cost, virtually maintenance-free operation. The brand says the laser light engine reduces power consumption by up to 47 per cent compared to Optoma’s lamp-based models.

Connectivity comprises two HDMI inputs, one HDMI out as well as 3D support, USB-A power 1.5A, and RS232. The optical engine is IP6X certified.

The ZW350e is also the first projector in Optoma’s portfolio to include eco-friendly packaging that uses recycled materials.

Capable of 4000 lumens with a 300,000:1 contrast ratio, the Optoma ZW350e boasts a 1.1x optical zoom, 360-degree and portrait mode operation, and auto keystone.

The form factor promises flexible installation in nearly any orientation and is easily transportable from one location to the next.

“It’s important to offer customers display solutions that deliver long-lasting, reliable performance and with minimal impact on the environment,” said Simon Jonas, category manager at Optoma. “We are thrilled to announce our newest generation of ultra-compact, lightweight laser projectors that not only offer incredible image quality and installation flexibility, but also establish a new industry benchmark for reducing power and carbon footprint.”
