Interactivity Built for Two - Dual Pens
Now two users can work simultaneously, or independently, with dual pen support and Epson's Easy Interactive Tools (EIT2) Software. Students can work together seamlessly to share ideas and information
iPad / iPod Wireless Projection
Use wireless network projection to view files, photos and more from your iPad and iPod devices. Use BrightLink's PC-free annotation tool to highlight, draw and make notes on the displayed content
Instantly Annotate - Switch Sources and Keep Writing
Increase the value and utilization of your multimedia devices. Use built-in annotation tools, or connect via a wired or wireless LAN to unlock powerful new features. Annotate over the network, from an iPad / iPhone / iPod touch, DVD / Blu-ray player or document camera. You can even annotate without any device at all; use the built-in tools PC-free. Teachers are free to connect existing resources already in their environment, while inviting students up to engage directly with the content
iProjection App
Display and control content from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with the iProjection App and any nearby wireless or networked projector. This free application allows road warriors to travel light and present from their mobile devices. For teachers, it makes it easy to walk around the class and still be able to share engaging content - larger-than-life. The app is easy to use and navigate with intuitive menu options that make it simple to bring your iOS content to the big screen
iWall or iTable - You Decide
Expand the possibilities with one projector. With the flexibility of BrightLink, you have the choice to mount your projector on a wall or table, instantly transforming walls or tabletops into interactive learning surfaces. Educators can use BrightLink in small-group learning centers or as student workstations
Ultra Flexible Interactivity with Versatility
While interactive whiteboards are limited to a predetermined height and width, BrightLink has no such constraints. Set the size of the interactive area to fit your available space (60-100" (1.5-2.5 m)). Use one type of hardware to fit in various types of spaces, and reduce the complexity and cost of managing and maintaining multiple types of equipment
Amazing Color and White Light Output
These BrightLink projectors feature 3100 lumens of color and white light output for bright, vibrant, colorful images. And, unlike DLP interactive projectors that decrease in brightness when interactivity is in use, BrightLink consistently shines bright. For interactive lesson plans, presentations and video, rich color and detail are critical - that's why it's more important than ever to understand that color light output is an essential ingredient in achieving optimum performance
Ultra Versatile
BrightLink works on almost any surface - an existing whiteboard, a flat wall, a chalkboard with dry-erase paint or a table. Interactive capabilities are built into the projector and not into a board; almost any surface will work. Teachers were thrilled to learn they can keep using their dry-erase boards with the BrightLink projector. Save money by not having to hassle with uninstalling perfectly good boards
Ultra-Short Throw Distance
BrightLink's ultra-short-throw projector design eliminates many of the common problems of interactive systems, such as shadowing and eye glare. With an incredibly efficient 0.27" throw ratio, BrightLink's 485Wi allows you to project extra-large interactive images up to 100" (2.5 m) with the projector less than 10" (0.3 m) away from the image surface. This greatly reduces shadows that often appear when using a traditional projector
