New ultra-compact, short throw laser projectors deliver high brightness, maintenance-free operation with eco-friendly benefits

March, 2023 – Optoma, a world-leading manufacturer of visual solutions and the #1 4K UHD and DLP® brand worldwide and in EMEA,¹ today announced three new ultra-compact, short throw DuraCore laser projectors designed to bring high brightness, dependability, and cutting-edge image technology into conference rooms, boardrooms, and other corporate spaces. The ZX350ST, ZW350ST and ZH350ST are Optoma’s most compact, hassle-free XGA, WXGA and 1080p laser projectors, respectively, to-date, delivering powerful image performance with flexible installation features and extensive connectivity options in a sleek, compact form factor, up to 34% smaller than previous Optoma models.²

To support Optoma’s commitment to sustainability, Optoma’s projectors guarantee up to 30,000 hours of lower-cost and virtually maintenance-free operation with the projectors’ DuraCore laser light source, cutting power consumption by up to 45% compared to Optoma’s lamp-based projectors.³ Designed with the environment in mind, the compact product and packaging sizes allow 2x more products carried per container to reduce logistical carbon footprint3 and the packaging contains up to 97% recyclable materials.⁴

Featuring 3300, 3600 and 3500 lumens, respectively, and a 2,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, the Optoma ZX350ST, ZW350ST and ZH350ST projectors produce sharp and vivid images with incredible colour accuracy. With their short throw distance, these projectors deliver bright, large-screen presentations with stunning clarity from just a few metres away. Equipped with keystone and 360-degree and portrait mode operation, the ZX350ST, ZW350ST and ZH350ST projectors also guarantee flexible installation in virtually any orientation and location with their small, lightweight footprint. The new models also include an external power pack for added energy efficiency and versatile installation.

“As we continue to demonstrate our commitment to sustainability, we are designing products that not only deliver superior performance and are built to last, but also consume minimal energy and have a reduced environmental footprint,” said Ollie Blundell, Product Manager, Optoma. “The new ZX350ST, ZW350ST and ZH350ST combine powerful DuraCore laser technology with essential features from our line of ProAV projector solutions, along with an eco-friendly design, delivering a lower total cost of ownership and the functionality that our users expect.”

A value-added solution, the Optoma Management Suite (OMS)™ is available on these projectors offering IT administrators and technicians a real time remote platform to monitor, manage, and diagnose multiple displays simultaneously. OMS enables technicians to check the status and make configurations to optimise performance and broadcast emergency messages, alerts, or announcements across on-site displays.
