Connect people, things, information, and services with inspiring video experiences and quality visual communications to support learning, working, and lifestyles

Projectors maintain a high market share with a wide lineup, including high brightness models¹ for various applications, business models, home models, and smart models². Capturing the expanding demand for high brightness and smart models, we aim to further enhance our presence in the market through technological evolution and lineup enhancement.

² Projectors over 500 lm, with standalone network connectivity and video streaming service usability

A projector that combines 4K-equivalent resolution with an ultra-short-throw lens can project sharp, nearly life-sized images of people at a remote locations, creating the illusion that everyone is in the same space. We will develop the market by collaborating with online conference service providers and expanding proof-of-concept studies through co-creation with local governments.
We are accelerating our efforts to create learning opportunities and alleviate disparities in the education market by working with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). We are conducting proof-of-concept (POC) studies to verify the effectiveness of support for touring lessons that take advantage of the portability that projectors offer. We are also raising awarness related to education, health, hygiene, and the environment in areas with limited access to electricity or limited electrical resources. Our goal is to develop a business model that collaboratively addresses societal issues stemming from disparities in education and information.

The greatest strength of projectors lies in their high installation flexibility, allowing for easy portability and the creation of large-screen viewing environments. Since the early days of projectors, Epson has led the way toward market growth and technological advancements such as compactness, lightweight design, and low power consumption, solidifying its position as a leading company in the market.

By leveraging our strong global sales and service support network to proactively address the needs of customers worldwide, we have not only enhanced hardware performance in terms of brightness and image quality but also improved usability through software advancements, such as adding network connectivity and electronic blackboard functions.

Currently, the use of projectors has expanded beyond traditional offices and classrooms to include large spaces such as event venues, auditoriums, and digital art museums. Additionally, our lineup of home projectors has been expanded to offer a variety of entertainment options, ranging from traditional full-fledged home theater models to smart models with integrated Android TV functionality and high-quality speakers.
