With its mobile DLP projectors NEC NP64 and NP43, NEC Display Solutions launches the successors to its NP62 and NP41. Both models feature an autofocus function and simple operation with long lamp life and a brightness of 3000 and 2300 ANSI lumens, respectively, with a contrast ratio of 1,600:1. Both the NP64 and NP43 are native XGA resolution (1024×768). But that’s not why we’re covering them…

Lots of projectors have automatic power-on, signal detection, automatic focus and auto keystone correction and even a so-called Eco-mode that lowers the operating cost by extending lamp life up to 3500 hours and reducing power consumption; and both of these new models from NEC have all those features. This one, however, is a true GreenAV product since NEC has integrated a “carbon savings meter” to support GreenAV corporate initiatives by encouraging users to operate the projectors in Eco-mode and calculates the carbon dioxide savings on the fly. Very creative.
