At such a short distance, presenters now don't need to concern themselves with casting a shadow across the screen. The projector is perfect for classrooms or small presentation rooms.
The Mitsubishi Electric XD500U-ST has a 2500:1 contrast ratio and 2000 ANSI lumens. As an added benefit the projector has optional whiteboard and blackboard modes.
"Often in class rooms and small boardrooms presentations it can be awkward when you have to have the projector sitting at the opposite end of the room and the presenters shadow blocks out half the screen," said Thomas Seeto, Director, Mitsubishi Electric Australia. "Mitsubishi Electric wanted take some of the hassle out of presentations by producing a projector that could create good size quality images at short distances."
