Casio Launches 4K UHD Projector and Expands Lineup for Ultra Short Throw Projectors

Casio is expanding their lineup for Ultra Short Throw (UST) series with 3 new models — XJ-UT311WN, XJ-UT351W and XJ-UT351WN, promising to deliver brighter, sharper and higher resolution pictures. The company also moves into the business space with a high-resolution high-brightness business projectors with crystal bright 4K Ultra-High Definition (UHD) projector XJ-L8300HN.

The UST are capable of projecting image as large as 60-inch with a throw distance of 13 cm. This eliminated potential shadow casting while keeping light flare away from presenters during presentation. Featuring both vertical and horizontal keystone correction, users are also able to correct projection distortions at angles up to ±5°, vertically and horizontally via the remote control and buttons on the projectors.

The output comes in as bright as 3,500 lumens and a contrast ratio of up to 20,000:1; the new extended series deliver brighter and sharper images than earlier models and projected images are now significantly clearer, with a colour reproduction of 1.07 billion colours.

On top of the extended line, Casio comes with a brand new 4K UHD XJ-L8300HN projector, featuring a new laser light source equipped with the latest 4K UHD DLP 0.66” chip which projects images of approximately 8.3 million pixels (four times the pixel count of a full HD projector) with a crystal brightness of 5,000 lumens and an estimated lifespan of 20,000 hours.

Through a single chip, images from Casio’s projector will ensure a sharper naturalistic image, projecting the tiniest detail even in a large space such as an auditorium or a concert hall. Projected images no longer suffer from distortion with an optical lens shift function built in.

The usage of 4K content will increase with the demand for better quality video and audio. For users not making the switch just yet, Casio’s projector is currently equipped with a super resolution technology which is able to enhance lower-resolution images and movies to produce an effect of higher resolution perfectly suited to Ultra HD screens. 

Equipped with Remote ID function, users can now control up to four projectors together or individually from a single controller. With the help of C-Assist app (available on iOS and Android), users can share text and images wirelessly from their devices in real time, contributing to a more efficient and impressive presentation.

All projectors feature a long light time of up to 20,000 hours with almost zero maintenance required, minimizing efforts spent on periodic cleaning.
