CASIO LAUNCHES NEW 4K UHD PROJECTOR &

EXPANDS LINE-UP OF ULTRA SHORT THROW SERIES

Casio’s
latest 4K Ultra-High Definition (UHD) projector and new Ultra Short Throw (UST)
models promise brighter, sharper and high brilliance cinematic images

Singapore,
April 17, 2017 – Casio today
enters the market for high-resolution high-brightness business projectors with
its new crystal bright 4K Ultra-High Definition (UHD) projector XJ-L8300HN, and
expands its line-up of 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 with new technology at a lower cost of ownership.

Casio’s latest 4K UHD technology
throws lifelike images, blowing up the finest detail

Featuring
a new laser light source, Casio’s new 4K UHD XJ-L8300HN projector is 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 perfect convergence in all three colour channels throwing a sharper
naturalistic image projecting the tiniest detail from an engineering blueprint
and design to close-up details of a crystal facet even in a large space such as
an auditorium or a concert hall.

Set-up
for convenience and outstanding operating performance, projected images no
longer suffer from distortion with an optical lens shift function built in as
well as the global standard in transmission of ultra-high definition video and
audio, HDBaseT-compatibility feature, which also lowers installation cost for
users.

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.

3 new UST models deliver sharper
contrast with power efficiency and new user features

With
a throw distance of only 13cm, Casio’s new Ultra-Short-Throw (UST) range of projectors
are capable of projecting an image as large as 60-inch. The short throw
distance eliminates the possibility of shadow casting on the screen while
keeping the light flare away from the presenter’s eyes making it more
comfortable during presentation.

With
an output as bright as 3,500 lumens and an excellent contrast ratio of up to
20,000:1, Casio’s new UST projectors deliver brighter and sharper images than earlier
models and projected images are now significantly clearer and more beautiful
with a colour reproduction of 1.07 billion colours.

Featuring
both vertical and horizontal keystone correction features, 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. This allows
users to set up the projectors in a number of positions, even in small meeting
rooms with limited choices of installations positions.

Equipped
with Remote ID function, users can now control up to four projectors together
or individually from a single controller. This function offers huge advantages
as users now have the flexibility to command different projectors easily and
quickly during when multiple projectors are installed in a room. 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.

With
Casio’s unique Japan-made LampFree technology and 3-block dust resistance
structure design, all projectors feature a long light time of up to 20,000
hours with almost zero maintenance required, minimizing efforts spent on
periodic cleaning.

The
launch of these new projectors promises to elevate the viewing experience in
various settings – at work, in education institutions or in meeting rooms.

As a leading manufacturer of solid state illumination light
source projectors with a global market share
of 63%,*1 Casio intends to keep
developing high-resolution, high-brightness projectors, further developing its
broad line-up of lamp-free projectors.

*1 According to a market
survey by Futuresource Consulting Ltd., based on the global sales volume of
solid state illumination light source projectors with at least 2,500 lumens
from April 2015 to March 2016.
