Mitsubishi WD380U

A longer service life for the projection lamp has been achieved by incorporating an optimal design for lamp temperature control. Benefits include substantial reductions in projector operating cost and the labor required for changing the lamp.

If no image signal is output for a predetermined period of time*, power is automatically turned off, realizing energy savings by reducing needless power consumption.

Stand-by (low) mode power consumption is less than 0.5W, offering increased energy savings and further contributing to environmental preservation.

When in stand-by (low) mode. At this time, use of the LAN function, RS-232C output is not possible.

Utilizing a large-diameter lens and optimal optical engine design, the shortest focal distance (throw ratio: 0.375) in the industry has been achieved. Even if the teacher or presenter must move in front of the projected image, they are neither blinded nor disturbed by projector light, enabling them to maintain eye contact with the audience at all times.

The high 2800lm luminance helps to ensure presentation images are clearly seen without lowering the light in the room.

Dark chip3 is newly introduced to the DLP® chip line-up. Stray-light processing has been optimized for the optical system, achieving a high contrast of 3000:1. This makes it possible to reproduce sharp, vivid images in which sentences and other characters can be easily read.

Fan noise during projector operation can be distracting during a presentation or videoconference. The WD380U-EST projectors operate at a significantly low noise level of only 28dB (i.e., in "low lamp" mode). As a result, presentations and conferences can be held without distracting projector noise in the background.

To use the projector to reproduce images from a computer, a VGA cable, USB cable, LAN cable or commercially available wireless dongle can be used. For displaying images via a LAN, up to four computers can be connected to one projector. The projection screen can be divided into quarters, reproducing all computer screens simultaneously.

Notes:

When using the LAN Display function, a USB mouse or USB keyboard can be connected to the projector enabling direct access to a computer utilizing the Internet or other application.

Using "PtG Converter", PowerPoint files can be converted into a special format and saved on a USB storage device. When the USB device is connected to the projector, users can replay slideshows or animation effects using only the projector.

JPEG files saved on a USB storage device can be projected in slideshow style.
