Acer today unveiled two new projectors in its eco-friendly Vero product line; the Acer Vero PD2528ic and the Acer Vero PD2328. Both projectors are designed to equip businesses and consumers with high-performance, energy-efficient technology, making these excellent choices for those looking to reduce their ecological footprint.
Stunning Image and Color Projection with Gen 4 LED Lighting Technology
The latest Gen 4 LED light source enhances the brightness of the new Acer PD2 Series projectors by up to 18.5% compared to the previous generation[1], allowing for high-light output of up to 3,700 ANSI lumens[3] and making them great options for home cinema or meeting room setups. These deliver excellent color performance with support for 120% of the REC 709 color space and offer 1.5 times wider coverage compared to traditional lamp-based projectors. Plus, their 0.65-inch DMD chip power their high and dynamic contrast ratios of 50,000:1 for vibrant visuals and image quality, even when showing low-light frames.
The Acer Vero PD2328 is available with a WXGA (1280×800) resolution, a 16:10 aspect ratio, and 3,700 lumens of brightness, while the Acer Vero PD2528ic features an FHD (1920×1080) resolution, a 16:9 aspect ratio, and 3,200 ANSI lumens. Acer LumiSense technology helps bring content to life, even in dark settings. Color-boosting technologies such as Acer ColorPurity+, ColorBoostLED, and ColorSafe II deliver consistent, natural, and vivid colors for more expressive displays, plus LED Color Saturation and help reproduce true-to-life color balance. Acer’s BluelightShield also mitigates the negative effects of potential blue light exposure and helps protect the eyes from damage or straining.
Environmentally and Economically Friendly
These projectors feature Acer EcoProjection technology, which ultimately helps save on power consumption and replacement costs. The devices automatically enter Eco mode and dim the light source to 60% power when no input signal is detected and perform a safety shutdown after a certain period of inactivity. These projectors are lamp and mercury-free, helping extend their lifespan to up to 30,000 hours and improve energy efficiency by up to 42% compared to lamp-based models. They also incorporate 50% PCR plastic on the chassis and 100% recyclable packaging.
Greater Usability and Functionality
The PD2 Series Vero projectors are lightweight and compact, reflecting their light impact on the environment. Weighing just 2.6 kg and 11.8 inches in width, these can easily fit into any space or be mounted on any docking station at home or at work.
The Vero PD258ic is shipped with wireless projection and screen mirroring[4,5] capabilities with an Acer wireless dongle built in. Users can enjoy quick and seamless screen mirroring from a smartphone or PC without the need to install additional apps.
Being highly durable, both projectors can withstand 24 hours of continuous projection during a prolonged period of use, especially useful for public displays or museum exhibitions. Acer’s new Vero projectors also come with a built-in 10 W speaker, providing powerful sound and eliminating the need for external audio devices. Paired with HDMI 3D[[i]]support, movies and games come to life with greater depth and more engaging stereoscopic visuals.
Installation is easy and flexible with Auto Keystone Correction which automatically fixes vertical distortions and the Auto Celling Mount gravity sensor that detects the projectors’ mounted positioning and instantly rotates projected images by 180o to ensure the correct orientation.
Low Total Cost of Ownership
Compared with traditional lamp-based projectors, the Acer Vero LED projectors offer a lower total cost of ownership. Since they are lamp-free, this eliminates the need for lamp replacements throughout their life cycle. Thanks to the sealed engine design, the projectors’ internal systems are protected from dust damage, helping save on cleaning and repair fees as well.
