Epson BrightLink 1485Fi – Interactive Laser Display

Product Overview

The Epson BrightLink 1485Fi (V11H919520) is a 1080p 3LCD interactive ultra-short-throw laser display built for classrooms, training rooms, and conference rooms. This interactive laser projector delivers 5,000 lumens of equal color and white brightness and supports finger touch and pen interactivity for up to eight collaborators at once. It projects a 100-inch 16:9 image or a super-wide 120-inch 16:6 image, providing up to 95 percent more interactive whiteboarding space than a 75-inch flat panel. With a maintenance-free laser light source and broad connectivity, it suits AV deployments that need durable, collaborative front-of-room displays.

Product Description

The BrightLink 1485Fi mounts above the writing surface using its ultra-short-throw lens, with a 16:9 throw ratio of 0.27 to 0.37, so presenters work at the board without casting shadows. Interactivity uses infrared technology supporting two pens and six finger touch points across a 65 to 100 inch diagonal interactive area, with automatic or manual calibration to speed installation. The display supports PC-free whiteboarding for drawing, saving, printing, and emailing, and it can host other network-connected BrightLink projectors so up to eight users collaborate on a single canvas from multiple locations. Built-in 5 GHz wireless, Miracast peer-to-peer connectivity, and Epson iProjection software enable multi-device casting in lecture halls and meeting spaces. Connectivity includes three HDMI inputs and an HDBaseT HDMI output for long-distance signal distribution, plus a dual 8 W stereo speaker system. AV integrators frequently compare it with the non-camera Epson BrightLink 1480Fi and the UST interactive Epson BrightLink 770Fi; review the full Epson projector lineup to specify the right interactive display.
