Singapore, 20 February 2018 – Epson, the number-one
selling projector brand worldwide, today announced the launch of the world’s
first 3LCD ultra-short throw laser home theatre projector, the EH-LS100,
bringing bright big-screen projection to homes. Epson’s first ultra-short
throw laser projector for homes, the projector’s ultra-short throw design
allows it to project at extremely close distances to a wall without need for
mounting on ceiling, enabling easy installation and a seamless integration
with the home décor.

Projecting screen sizes ranging
from 70 to 130 inches, the EH-LS100 offers WUXGA full HD resolution with
brightness levels of 4,000 lumens of both white and colour brightness,
delivering extraordinary image performance in a variety of lighting
conditions. Users can experience deep blacks and brilliant colours at a high
contrast ratio of up to 2,500,000:1 for an immersive and vivid home theatre
experience.

With its ultra-short throw
capability, EH-LS100 is able to achieve a 100-inch projection with a
placement of just 26cm away from the wall, overcoming the issues of distance
and space in home projection systems. The EH-LS100 can now be placed in the
same place and angle as conventional entertainment devices – users can simply
plug in and play to enjoy a cinematic experience in the comfort of own home.

With its innovative laser light
source technology, the EH-LS100 has outstanding durability, delivering up to
20,000 hours of viewing, without need for maintenance and lamp replacement –
this translates to more than 12 years of usage[1]. With its
laser technology, the projector brings instant on/ off performance – there is
no need to wait for warm up or cool down, ensuring immediate projections.

The EH-LS100 projector comes with
a variety of connectivity options – including direct in-built Wi-Fi. Users
can enjoy smooth wireless projection directly from Android and Apple iOS
tablets, as well as smartphones through the iProjection app. It also comes
with 3 HDMI ports that enable up to 3 different devices to be connected to
the projector. With this, multiple devices can be easily managed with the use
of a single remote control. Lastly, users can enjoy built-in 16-watt speakers
without having to connect to an amplifier or separate speakers. 

“The EH-LS100 laser projector is
Epson’s first ultra-short throw laser home projector  and aims to bring
affordable life-size images of up to 130 inches in beyond full HD resolution
to the modern home theatre. In contrast to traditional home projection
systems, users can incorporate the projector easily in the home interior
without changing their current set up, and without concern for shadows, space
or re-wirings. The EH-LS100 is the next step in projection technology in
bringing everyday entertainment to the home for families,” said Ms. Tan May
Lin, General Manager of Sales, Marketing and Customer Service division of
Epson Singapore.
