U3-W Series Can Now Project 2200 Lumens for Monochrome images BEAVERTON, ORE. - May 9, 2002- PLUS Vision Corporation of America, the leader in projector miniaturization technology, announces the addition of four new models to its popular 3-pound line of projectors. The four U3-W projectors feature the new "bright mode" function. When in "bright mode," the units project monochrome images at more than double the lumens of the existing U3 line, changing the standard 1000 lumens to 2200 lumens. With the addition of the new U3-W models, PLUS Vision provides its customers with the most choices in ultraportable projectors. The new feature is designed to give mobile executives more flexibility in a unit that remains lightweight, but powerful enough for use with demanding visuals in virtually any lighting situation. For example, when displaying fine characters or numerals in a spreadsheet, the U3-W's additional brightness will help produce a clear, readable image, improving productivity and reducing eyestrain. "Our customers like the quality and mobility of our 3-pound line, which offer a bright and crisp image suitable for almost any presentation from conference rooms to classrooms," said S. Mark Hand, vice-president of sales and marketing for PLUS Vision Corp. of America. "However, when displaying very fine monochrome characters, such as mathematical explanations or financials in a spreadsheet, customer feedback indicates the need for even greater brightness. "PLUS Vision developed the U3-W series based on this user feedback, offering a solution that allows customers to achieve 2200 lumens for these specific uses, without having to purchase a heavier unit," Hand continued. Within the series, PLUS Vision provides even more flexibility and options by offering both a zoom and a fixed-focus option, which is best suited for presentations in small rooms. They are also available in SVGA and XGA models. The U3-W projectors feature:
