The projectors provide real-time automatic vertical and horizontal1 keystone correction and adjustment features, which automatically corrects distorted images projected at any angle upon projection.

The split screen feature enables content from two separate sources to be displayed side by side simultaneously.

The projectors come with the innovative gesture presenter feature, a first of its kind, enabling users to control presentations through its touch features by conveniently tapping on the projection screen, eliminating the need for clickers.
