The NP3250 series is the logical next step in NEC's strategy of transforming projectors from pure output devices into intelligent control units in networks. The devices are certified for Windows Vista and can be integrated via plug & play into LANs and WLANs without any additional software. No administrator rights are required to display the screen contents on a networked projector. Conversely, the remote desktop function allows XP or Vista PCs to be controlled from the projector. The user need simply connect a mouse and keyboard to the device.
The devices in the NP3250 series have a brightness of up to 5,000 ANSI lumens. In situations where a very high luminosity is needed, for example in bright rooms or large halls, the stacking function allows up to four devices to be used in combination. Included software calibrates the devices with the aid of a standard USB camera in order to project a single image. The total brightness can then extend up to 20,000 ANSI lumens. This solution is cheaper, more flexible and more failure-proof than using one single high-performance projector.
Alongside the standard lens, NEC supplies five optional interchangeable lenses to perfectly equip the projectors for all types of room or venue. Projection distances of between 90cm and 70m can then be catered for. The vertical (+50%) and horizontal (+/-10%) lens-shift function ensures maximum flexibility. HQVTM (Hollywood Quality Video) gives all models outstanding image quality with maximised noise suppression and increased depth of field. A number of supported functions, such as image-in-image, side-by-side, DICOM simulation, the direct display of key image file formats and support for all common interfaces, make the NEC NP3250 series extremely versatile.
