Epson EB-685W Key Features
High Brightness Even in Eco-mode
Reduce energy consumption in ECO mode with minimal impact on image brightness. When ECO mode is turned on, brightness will only be reduced to 2,900 lumens. That means you can still enjoy bright projection even as you save on energy costs.
Auto-brightness Adjustment
Save energy consumption and do your part for the environment with the eco-friendly auto-brightness adjustment. The luminance sensor detects the brightness level of the environment and adjusts the projector’s brightness automatically, giving you power and cost savings. This function can be turned on/off according to your preference.
Versatile Projection
With ultra-short throw, it is now possible to project a large screen within the narrow space of retail windows. You can now create captivating window displays with the help of large projections to increase the visibility of store merchandise. The Epson EB-685W can also be flexibly mounted onto a table to create an engaging interactive tabletop for meetings and discussions.
Full Compatibility
Advanced connectivity features mean convenient and hassle-free projections of your presentations. Featuring wide-ranging interfaces, the Epson EB-685W not only correspond with multiple conventional analogue sources, they are also compatible with HDMI and supports CEC. And with three HDMI input terminals, of which one is MHL-enabled for mirroring of Android mobile devices, you can connect to various devices and share contents from different sources easily. Simply connect your MHL-compatible device with the MHL cable to fully enjoy your contents on the big screen. What’s more, when connected, you can charge your Android mobile device and operate it using the projector’s remote control.
iProjection App for Mobile Devices
The iProjection app enables both iOS and Android devices to easily connect to the projector. You can use iProjection to wirelessly project various documents, photos and web pages, and draw on the device screen and share on projection. To connect, search for the projector in your local network or simply scan a QR code displayed on the projector screen. Remote control function is also built into iProjection so you can use the app to control projector functions. In addition, iProjection now supports screen mirroring (without audio) from devices running on Android 5.0 and above.
Multi PC Projection
Project from your laptop wirelessly using Epson EasyMP Multi PC Projection 2.0 software. Up to 50 laptops and mobile devices can connect to a single projector via this software. A laptop or device of the presenter can be assigned as the moderator and send a projected image with questions to all connected participant devices. After the participants write down their answers on the image and project them, the moderator can view thumbnail previews of the answers and select up to four of them to be projected on the screen simultaneously for sharing and comparison.
Home Screen
View and access your most frequently used functions immediately from the home screen. See all input sources at one glance and switch between them easily. For devices to easily connect wirelessly, the Epson EB-685W’s wireless network information and QR code are also shown on the home screen.
Auto Power On
With the auto power on function, projection starts automatically once a projection signal is detected via VGA cable.
Improved Control Toolbar on the Projector Screen
Conveniently access commonly used functions from the control toolbar projected on screen. Buttons available include Home, Print, Save, Image Share, Input, Zoom, A/V mute, Freeze, Volume, Split Screen, Timer, Document Camera and Power Off.
On-screen Control of Epson Document Camera
With greater compatibility to Epson document cameras, you can adjust document camera functions like zoom, auto focus, image capture, rotation, video recording, etc. from the on-screen document camera control toolbar. These controls are enabled by just a HDMI connection. Now, you can easily control the document camera to achieve your ideal image without moving away from the presentation screen. Only applicable for ELPDC21/ELPDC13/ELPDC07 document cameras.
Longer Lamp Life
With a long lamp life of 10,000 hours in ECO mode, the frequency of lamp replacements is reduced, saving you time and lowering the total cost of ownership.
ECO Features
Uses just 0.37W of power in standby mode. Projector optics employ lead-free lenses. Unpainted plastic housing reduces the environment impact. The flame retardants used in the plastic housing do not contain chlorine or bromine.
