Attendees will see firsthand how to create compelling on stage environments using scenic projection tools that combine advanced mapping software, Epson's large venue projection technology and Show Sage's extensive media server solutions. "Epson is committed to providing versatile projection technology that transforms campus theatres and performance venues into immersive, visually engaging spaces, while remaining easy to setup and install," says Chris Teguh, product manager, Epson America, Inc. "At this year's USITT show in Long Beach, we're excited to demonstrate the power of our large venue laser projectors, delivering high-quality visuals without the hassle of complicated installation." Designed to withstand the demands of theatre and live entertainment, Epson's large-venue laser projectors transform stage visuals to support deeper, more immersive storytelling. With proven three-chip, 3LCD technology and powerful features such as a mechanical shutter that helps preserve the projector's energy, Epson projectors are built to deliver consistent performance throughout live shows. Accompanied by DMX/Art-Net support, production teams can also control Epson projectors from theater lighting consoles and controllers. Highlighting high-performance projection, effortless integration and support for other stage-design tools, at USITT Epson will demonstrate the following projector solution: EB-PU2220B Projector: The 20,000-lumen EB-PU2220B is incredibly compact, lightweight and energy efficient. Featuring a sleek, black cabinet, it's optimized for live events with 3G-SDI input and output to accommodate daisy-chaining and long cable runs. The projector uses a 20,000-hour virtually maintenance-free laser light source, a hermetically sealed optical engine for high dust resistance and a filterless cabinet for low-maintenance operation. Plus, it offers 19,000 lumens at standard 120V power, eliminating any need for rewiring to accommodate high brightness projection. Pairing with nine optional powered lenses (sold separately) to simplify installation, it includes a host of premium features for fast setup, such as built-in NFC functionality4 and an optional attachable PixAlign camera to streamline multi-projector setups. Built for enhanced flexibility and convenience during installation with outstanding image quality, the company says, this projector transforms stages into mesmerizing scenery with vivid detail, vibrant colors and deep blacks.
