Exceptional performance in a micro-size
London, March 2009 - Acer, the third largest vendor in the global PC market
(source: Gartner data, 1H 2008) and the Number Two brand in the Video
Projector market for four consecutive Quarters now, today presented its new
K10 pico-projector, the first Acer projector to use LED lamp technology.
While all Acer projectors are based on DLP, a technology that offers
enhanced contrast, sharpness and image vividness for an exceptional viewing
performance that enhances any kind of content in any environment, the new
K10 pico-projector combines DLP technology with LED lamp technology, thus
taking picture quality to a new level.
"We are excited to see Acer leveraging DLP technology to create products
that will serve entirely new markets as well as products that will
accelerate the growth of existing markets - all by adding even greater value
to entertainment and communication experiences," says Lars Yoder, vice
president and business manager, TI's DLP Front Projection Business Unit.
"Their range of projectors really stands out in the industry, and firmly
establishes Acer as a market leader."
LED technology offers several benefits over traditional lamps. First of all,
lamp replacement is virtually unnecessary as LED lifetime lasts up to 20,000
hours; plus, there are no breakable filaments or tubes, increasing
durability. As a result the K10 pico-projector ensures exceptional
reliability and great savings. Combined with DLP, LED lamp technology
delivers better color saturation and contrast performance.
Finally, and of particular interest to Acer's continued drive to offer
greener, more environmentally friendly products, LED lamp technology does
not contain hazardous substances such as mercury or halogen gases and
compared to a traditional lamp can reduce power consumption up to 30%.
Weighing a fraction over half a kilo (0.55 kg / 1.21 lbs.) and measuring
just 127x122 mm, the K10 pico-projector is one of the smallest and lightest
projectors on the market today, making it the ideal companion for mobile
users looking for an easy to carry projector for instant projection
anywhere. The high portability is complemented by a glamorous design. The
glossy black casing portrays refined elegance and reflects Acer's premium
craftsmanship. Sculpted lines subtly hide the ventilation grill, adding a
stylish accent, while for ease of use the control pad is embedded on the
sleek surface. The K10 pico-projector also adds practicality to Acer
Notebook users, since their Acer Notebook power adapter may also be used for
the projector.
Despite its compact size, the K10 pico-projector offers great performance.
The innovative LED technology allows such a tiny projector to provide a 100
ANSI Lumens for clear and detailed images up to 60 inches diagonal while a
contrast ratio of 1000:1 ensures crystal clear, vibrant projections. On top,
the Acer SmartFormat technology ensures support for both 4:3 displays and
widescreens and takes away any worry users may have of having to adjust the
resolution of their wide-format notebook.
Support for manual (up to 40 degrees vertical) and auto Keystone correction
tweaks the pointing up or pointing down effect, so that the audience can
view a rectangular image rather than a trapezoidal one and makes the K10
pico-projector the ideal projector for smaller environments, like a
manager's office or a small room.
In addition:
Auto-shutdown feature helps reduce electricity consumption and save costs by
shutting down the projector after a user-defined period without reception of
any input signal.
Acer InstantPack technology: If the user is in a hurry to leave, the power
cord can be unplugged right after the projector is turned off, without any
resulting damage. There's no need to wait for a cooling period; the user can
pack the projector and leave immediately.
Acer projectors are compliant with the most up-to-date Microsoft Vista
operating systems. All Acer projectors are covered by a standard 2-year
carry-in Warranty.
