Casio Releases New Mercury-free Ultra Short-Throw Projector
3,100 Lumens High Brightness Delivered by Casio's Laser & LED Hybrid Light Source, Plus Outstanding Smart Device Connectivity

TOKYO, April 1, 2014 — Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced today the upcoming release of a new ultra short-throw projector in July. The mercury-free XJ-UT310WN offers high-brightness performance of 3,100 ANSI lumens, and can also be operated from various smart devices such as tablets and smartphones.

In April 2010, Casio launched its first projector with its original Laser & LED Hybrid Light Source. This Casio technology offered a high brightness of 2,500 lumens without using a mercury lamp. Since then, the company has equipped all its projectors with this mercury-free light source and helping to reduce environmental impact.

The new XJ-UT310WN is an ultra short-throw projector that can project a large 80-inch image from a distance as near as 27 centimeters. It is equipped with the latest Laser & LED Hybrid Light Source, which uses a DLP® chip to project the three basic colors of red, blue and green. Red is produced with a high-brightness red LED, while blue comes from a blue laser, and green is realized using a fluorescent material that converts blue laser light to green.

With a low power consumption of just 230 watts, the new projector still produces high brightness of 3,100 lumens. The light source has a long life of about 20,000 hours. Thanks to these outstanding features, the new projector offers a lower total cost of ownership and reduced environmental impact. The projector even has approximately two gigabytes of internal memory. The projection files can be downloaded to the memory over a wireless network, enabling easy projector use without a PC.

Casio is preparing smart-device applications*A to offer a variety of features useful in education and business settings. By linking a tablet or smartphone to the XJ-UT310WN, the user can control the projector from the smart device. This will be perfect for presenters that like to move around the classroom or into the audience to deliver a more dynamic talk.
*A In conjunction with the launch of the XJ-UT310WN, Casio plans to offer an Android application at Google Play, and an iOS application at the Apple App Store.

Features of the Smart-Device Applications

• PC remote operation

This feature enables the user to operate a PC that is connected to the XJ-UT310WN from the smart device. It allows the instructor or presenter to move around the room without having to return to the PC, and lets him or her interact more with the students or audience.


• Camera image projection

Images captured by a smart-device camera can be projected by the XJ-UT310WN in real time. For example, a teacher can walk around the classroom and capture images of students' group work and instantly project them on the screen. This allows information to be quickly shared with the whole class.


• Content projection

This feature enables the XJ-UT310WN to project education or presentation materials stored in apps. The Internet browser screen on the smart device can also be projected, enabling the easy creation of lessons or presentations containing the latest information.


• Projector operation

This feature enables the XJ-UT310WN to be operated from the smart device. The projection content source can be switched between PC, AV and other input devices, internal memory, and USB connected device. The sound and picture, including features such as freeze and blank screen, can also be adjusted, along with a variety of other operations.
