Projector with the World's Shortest Projection Distance*1. Optimal projection technology for the classroom, advertising, and the meeting room

The PLC-XL50 allows projection in many places that conventional projectors could not be used, such as projection on walls or on the floor or desktop by simply be placing the unit directly against the wall, or on the floor or on the desktop that will be projected on. Various uses for the projector include, but are not limited to: wall-mounted for projection on the wall (educational use), on desktop with downward projection onto the desktop, on the floor with projection downward onto open floor space, or projecting upwards onto the ceiling. Through these varying uses, the projector can be used as a new display tool for the office, for digital signage (electronic advertising), and for education, creating a more impressive ambience in various locations.

In order for SANYO to shorten the projection distance of its projectors, new large diameter aspheric lens and high-precision aspheric mirror technology was developed. SANYO also developed a new optical engine, enabling an 80 inch projection from the short distance of only 8 cm*2. Through this, large projections from a short distance are possible, and projection is possible even in tight or small meeting rooms, creating a meeting opportunity in any room or space that is available.
