17-Nov-00

InFocus CorporationÆ (NASDAQ: INFS, OSE: IFC), the worldwide leader in data/video projection, has launched a new Proxima XGA projector, the DP6150, as the latest addition to its range of conference room projectors. The first fully digital desktop LCD projector on the market, the Proxima DP6150 features a new standard in presentation solutions with Digital Visual Interface (DVI) connectivity, light weight and low operating noise. Proxima has also enhanced its DP6850+ projector - a favorite for business, education and government - with added performance features and brighter lumens. The DP6150, with DVI, adheres to the new standard for data connectivity while supporting current analog computers. DVI, pioneered by the Digital Display Working Group, is the key enabling interface standard accelerating the computer industry move toward completely digital image solutions. DVI eliminates the need to convert an analog-only video signal from desktop and portable computers, allowing the DP6150 projector to provide an all-digital image solution to enhance image quality and making it even easier to use. Featuring 1400 lumens of brightness, XGA resolution and a high contrast ratio of 450:1, the DP6150 ensures bright, sharp images and colors to be used in any mid-sized conference room or classroom, even with the lights on. Digital keystone correction provides a square image whatever the angle of the projector, and the built-in zoom and focus capabilities allow for easy installation in a variety of environments. At just 7.9 pounds, this Proxima projector offers easy mobility from room to room. The ability to connect to five different sources simultaneously for smooth transitions between presentation mediums makes the DP6150 one of the most versatile projectors on the market. ""The DP6150 marks the first in a range of performance-packed conference room projectors to be produced by the new InFocus Corporation,"" said Werner Heid, Executive Vice President of InFocus Corporation. ""With bright XGA resolution, superb digital connectivity and multiple inputs, the Proxima DP6150 offers an ideal communications solution for corporate and classroom applications.""The Proxima DP6150, one of the quietest projectors in its class with an operating noise level of less than 34dB, is designed with features to make any presentation professional and interactive. The BatMouse III remote gives the presenter full control over the projector from anywhere in the room. For added connectivity, the DP6150 includes RS232 support, which allows management of the projector from a computer or a third party control system. Features also include PS/2 and USB mouse support, and digital zoom (up to 7x magnification). The projectorís icon and text based menu system, available in 11 languages, allows for easy navigation. The monitor loop-through permits the user to view his/her presentation, even if standing with his/her back to the screen.Proxima has also enhanced one of its best selling projectors for business, education and government - the DP6850 - to include an increase of 300 lumens, optional lenses and connectivity with Proximaís new ProjectionLinkô networking solution. At 1800 ANSI lumens, the new DP6850+ is a perfect projector for medium-size venues such as classrooms and conference rooms. The DP6850+ features advanced capabilities such as auto-sync, digital keystone correction and USB mouse support to make setup quick and easy, as well as new optional short- and long-throw lenses for a wide range of projector placement options. The Proxima DP6150 and DP6850+ both come with the security of a 90 day (or 500 hour) limited lamp warranty, plus a full two years projector warranty on parts and labor.
