Description
The Epson PowerLite 685W WXGA Ultra Short-Throw Presentation Display is designed for today’s collaborative, BYOD classrooms. Delivering 3,500 lumens of color and white brightness, this 3LCD projector ensures crisp, vibrant images in any lighting environment. Its ultra short-throw design projects a massive 100" image from just 11" away, eliminating shadows and glare for uninterrupted lessons.
With native WXGA resolution (1280 x 800, 16:10), split screen functionality, and versatile connectivity including 3x HDMI® with MHL® support, it’s built to adapt to diverse classroom needs. Teachers can wirelessly share content from up to four devices simultaneously (wireless module sold separately) — including Chromebooks, iOS, Android, Mac, and PC devices — using Epson’s Moderator software.
Built-in 16 W audio and microphone input ensure every student can hear clearly, while ECO Mode extends lamp life up to 10,000 hours for reduced total cost of ownership. With easy network management, remote display control, and robust sound, the PowerLite 685W is the complete solution for modern learning environments.
