PRESS RELEASE

Optoma, number one DLP® projector brand in EMEA*, will return to ISE 2020 in hall 1, stand 1-N30. Optoma will present its expanded range of revolutionary ‘QUAD’ all-in-one LED display solutions, interactive flat panels (IFPDs), innovative real-life projection applications, professional and consumer 4K UHD projectors.

Thierry Millet, Managing Director of Optoma EMEA, said: “ISE is Optoma’s most important platform to showcase the latest developments in display technology to our customers and partners. We are excited to officially launch our latest addition to the QUAD LED display series (FHDQ163) and demonstrate our unique LED display, projection and IFPD solutions.”

New ‘QUADZilla’ all-in-one LED display

Making its debut, Optoma will reveal the FHDQ163 (QUADZilla) from its revolutionary QUAD series. The new Full HD 1080p LED display has a larger screen size of 163” (3.6 x 2.025m), but still offers the same all-in-one solution for a quick and easy out-of-the-box installation. 

The QUAD series 4-in-1 SMD pixel allows for a smoother screen surface, wide viewing angle and more robust design. Boasting a high brightness of 600 nits, the QUAD series is suitable for any indoor retail or corporate application. Thanks to an ECO friendly <0.5W standby mode that conforms with ErP regulations, power consumption is reduced, which saves on energy costs. 

FHDQ163 additional features include:

  • Remote Management - Optoma ProService gives peace of mind when it comes to managing your device wirelessly from anywhere in the world.
  • Scalability - The screen size can also be upscaled by simply connecting multiple FHDQ163 displays.
  • Wireless content sharing - Speed up meetings by seamlessly connecting devices with the Optoma TapCast Pro app. 
  • Control in your hands - Pre-set picture modes ensure the best viewing experience. 

Other key demonstrations on the Optoma stand this year include: 

FHDQ130 and QUADShow - complete custom solution for the indoor rental market

Optoma will demonstrate the QUADShow, an all-in-one motorised lift and transport system for mobile use of the award-winning Optoma FHDQ130 – 130” Full HD 1080p LED display with a 1.5mm pixel pitch.

The QUADShow ensures complete protection of the FHDQ130 within the easily movable flight case, which fits through standard sized doorways. Its plug and play design means it can be ready for any event in just minutes. The built-in display stand features height adjustment, and the FHDQ130 can be positioned in landscape or portrait mode.

Interactive flat panel displays (IFPDs) - premium collaborative learning

Optoma will be combining the 130” QUAD LED display (FHDQ130) with an IFPD – to display and encourage collaboration with interactive content the entire audience can see.

Boasting 4K UHD resolution and a 20-point touch-enabled display, Optoma’s multi-touch interactive flat panels bring lessons and idea sharing to life in education and corporate settings.

Available in 65’’, 75’’ and 86’’ sizes and featuring anti-glare glass, a blue light filter and a wide viewing angle, they produce no hazardous UV light and emit minimal blue light while providing crisp and vivid visuals to every seat in the room.
