Eiki
International, Inc. a world leader for over 40 years in projection technology,
announces the new EK-810U WUXGA (1920x1200) and EK-811W WXGA (1280x800) Laser
Projectors. Featuring 8,000 Lumen brightness, a 100,000:1 contrast ratio, and
the superior color performance resulting from the use of both blue and red lasers,
the EK-810U/811W support versatile LAN control and carries the added benefit of
an IP6X Dust Ingress Test rating for long-term reliability. The result is a
projector that delivers superior brightness and clarity in a cost-effective
package that redefines value for professional large venue installations.
Among
their numerous features, the new EK-810U/811W Laser Projectors delivers
stunningly vivid colors as a result of its use of both blue and red lasers.
Compared to more traditional laser-based projection systems that incorporate a
blue laser only, the addition of the red laser results in greater brightness
(8000 Lumen with a 16:10 aspect ratio), a higher red color ratio without
diminishing either blue or green performance, along with increased Gamut Area
Ratio performance. Given that laser technology is less fragile than traditional
lamp-based systems and offer nearly instant on/off performance, the
capabilities of the new EK-810U/811W make these projectors an exceptional
choice for applications where superior image quality is essential.
The
new Eiki EK-810U/811W Laser Projectors provides a wealth of connectivity
options that result in greater flexibility in terms of both signal access and
control. For access on a LAN (Local Area Network), the system provides RJ-45
connectors for both HDBaseT and Ethernet. The system also provides support for
RS-232 control as well as an input for a dedicated wired IR (infrared) remote.
Equally notable, the projector includes a USB Type A connector—enabling the
system to operate over the network using a Wi-Fi dongle. Additional
connectivity for the Eiki EK-810U/811W includes both HDMI™ input and output, a
DVI-D connector, and VGA, I/O.
Of
particular note, the new Eiki EK-810U/811W Laser Projectors carries an IP6X
Dust Ingress Test rating. Given that many projectors are suspended, for
example, from the ceiling and, as a result, are difficult to access for regular
cleaning, the EK-810U’s IP6X dust-free rating ensures the projector will
deliver exceptional performance and equally impressive long term reliability.
Eiki’s
EK-810U/811W Laser Projectors offers horizontal / vertical lens shift and h/v
keystone correction, thus facilitating versatile placement. There are six
optional lenses available for use with the system, encompassing throw/width
ratios from 0.75-5.50.
Steve
Rubery, Eiki's National Sales Manager, commented on the company’s new
EK-810U/811W Laser Projectors. “Eiki’s EK-810U/811W offer exceptional
performance, a rich feature set, and superior connectivity options. As laser
projectors, the EK-810U/811W use a 0.67-inch digital micro-mirror device (DMD)
imaging system that contributes to the projector’s vivid colors and superior
clarity. And since lasers create the exact colors that are required without
having to absorb or otherwise block white light, system efficiency is
considerably greater. I’m confident integrators will find much to like in this
new product offering.”
The
EIKI EK-810U/811W Laser Projectors carry an MSRP of $17,995 and $14,995 w/o
lens The products are expected to be available early Q3, 2016.
