Acer recently presented the new S1200, designed to bring engaging presentations and visuals in schoolrooms or business environments. A highly polished black finish and smooth rounded corners give the S1200 a classy feel – an add-on to this extremely versatile projector that features Ultra-Short Throw Distance, a technology that allows the projector to display clear images even if it is positioned very close to the screen. Even at a throw distance of just one meter, highly detailed images can be displayed at up to 82”. As a result the S1200 offers greater flexibility and maximum viewing comfort, making it ideal for education and business projection scenarios.

The S1200 projector boasts leading-edge brightness at 2500 ANSI Lumens ensuring exceptionally bright images no matter where it is used. Its native 1024x768 XGA resolution – that supports up to 1680 x 1050 WSXGA+ – and the 2000:1 contrast ratio ensure ultra-sharp images. Extremely silent – just 28dB in Eco Mode – the S1200 also offers 3000 hours projection (lamp life reaches 4000 hours in Eco Mode) and a built-in speaker.
The Acer S1200 supports NTSC, PAL, SECAM, HDTV and EDTV, and offers a broad range of connections including D-sub and HDMI for easy connection to PCs, notebooks, DVD players or games consoles. As the HDMI port supports HDCP signals, users will be able to watch HDCP protected high-definition content. For ease of use, the handy remote control is provided with a laser pointer and page up/down functionality and with the Empowering Key that allows faster access to the Acer Empowering Technology tools.

The S1200 projector also features Acer EcoProjection, an environment friendly management solution that reduces power consumption by up to 50% in standby mode. If there isn’t any input signal for five minutes, the projector automatically enters ECO mode, thus reducing power consumption up to 20%. Acer ECO mode technology extends the lifespan of the lamp and reduces noise and power consumption when the ambient light does not necessitate full illumination.
