3LCD Technology
Epson EB-585wi projectors are based on 3-chip LCD technology for amazing colour, incredible detail and solid reliability. 3LCD's 3-chip architecture dedicates an entire chip to process each primary colour – red, green and blue, continuously. Unlike single-chip technology that delivers colour sequentially, you get full-time colour. The result is vibrant, realistic imagery and video all delivered with 3LCD's true-to-life colour.
Up to 3x Brighter with Epson Projectors
Uses 3LCD Engines that have no colour wheel with a white segment and therefore don't force a tradeoff between white and colour brightness.
Higher Brightness
With brightness up to 3300 lumens (selected models), the screen is easily viewed from anywhere in the classroom, even without dimming the lights.
Ultra Short Throw Benefits
Bigger Image
The ultra-short throw allows the projector to be positioned closer to the screen for reduced shadowing. The EB-585wi can fill an 80-inch screen from just 47cm away.
Significantly Reduced Shadow Interference
You no longer need to worry about obscuring the information on screen with shadows cast by your body.
Non-Blinding
Even when you stand directly in front of the screen, the light rarely reaches your face. With no glare in your eyes, you'll find it far more pleasant and stress-free to be out front when using the projector.
Classroom Friendly Design
These Ultra Short Throw projectors are designed to blend in with office or classroom surroundings, even when wall mounted. The setting plate and cable cover keep cables out of sight.
Wide Ranging Interface
Not only does the wide-ranging interface correspond with conventional analogue sources, it is compatible with two types of HDMI sources as well for digital connections.
One of the HDMI input terminals is MHL (Mobile High Definition Link) certified for mirroring of Android and other mobile devices.
Mobile Device Compatibility
Using the optional wireless card in conjunction with Epson's iProjection app, you can also display and control content from your iPad, iPhone, iPod and Android devices.

EASY INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
Cloning Function
When dealing with multiple projectors, it is now possible to copy the OSD menu settings for things like user logos or colour modes and transfer the settings to multiple machines via USB/network. This function will help reduce set-up and installation time.
Easy Installation and Adjustment
Epson's original mounting plate has been re-designed for improved installation and set-up. For fine adjustment, all six axes can be individually corrected using the adjustment dials on the plate. Improvements on the mounting plate include larger cable cutouts, center line indicator and ruler on both sides of the mounting arm.
Lamp Regulator Function
This newly added function automatically adjusts image brightness according to ambient light levels and image content. This feature helps reduce the load on the lamp and conserves electricity.
Table Top Projection
These projectors can also project vertically downward, enabling users to transform any table top into a viewing surface. By utilising the optional ELP-MB29 table mount, an ordinary table becomes an exciting surface.
Longer Lamp Life
The long 10,000 hours lamp life# saves time and money by reducing the frequency of costly lamp replacements. When you do need to replace the lamp, it will only cost $79 inc GST.
Significantly Reduced Shadow Interference
Periodic cleaning allows Epson projectors to be used for much longer intervals. The maintenance cycle for the air filter is approximately 5000 hours.
