Introducing the Sharp A201U Projector 

Sharp NEC Display Solutions Europe has launched its first LCD laser installation projector under the Sharp brand. The Sharp A201U projector boasts an efficient design with 20KLM brightness and a nearly DC-P3 colour space. This new projector aims to bring a new level of quality and colour to LCD projectors.

  • The Sharp A201U is the first LCD laser installation projector from Sharp.
  • Features a brightness of 20KLm, WUXGA resolution, almost DC-P3 colour space and utilises an RB laser light source.
  • Advanced features include geometric adjustment, picture-in-picture capabilities, and simplified installation through HDBaseT-out.

Market Leading Colour and Brightness

A high-quality projector needs a broad colour range and high brightness levels, both of which are delivered in the A201U. Producing vivid reds, a brightness of 20KLm and WUXGA resolution, the A201U delivers on quality. This projector also features an RB light source and the widest LCD projector colour space on the market.

Advanced Visualisation Capabilities

The Sharp A201U also excels in visualisation. It offers impressive free tilt and portrait installation capabilities, helping to ensure the best image is always produced. Unique features such as geometric adjustment, picture-in-picture, tiling, and camera-based blending are also in place.

Easy installation

Installing this projector is made simple with an HDBaseT-out interface which allows for daisy-chaining of multiple projectors. The model supports ProAssist, which streamlines setup and system settings adjustments. This includes picture, lens and blending adjustments, geometric correction, colour uniformity, white balance and automatic camera-based adjustment.

Quality Meets Sustainability

Gerd Kaiser, Senior Product Line Manager for Large Venue Projectors at Sharp/NEC, expressed pride in the new installation projector. He stated,

We are very proud of releasing this new installation projector that is unique in the market and designed for efficiency – the small footprint defies the high brightness delivery at low energy consumption. 

As with all our new product launches, this Sharp branded model is deeply rooted in NEC’s legacy of quality, sustainability and projection expertise. As such, with the wide colour space, high brightness and resolution, and the sealed, filterless optical engine, the A201U is ideal for everyone who needs a new solution for museum projection, immersive projection mapping, corporate or university auditorium use.”

Availability

The Sharp A201U installation projector is set to be available in December 2024.
