Optoma 4K Alexa Projector

Why don’t you already have a projector? Thanks to recent advances in DLP tech, we’re running out of excuses for sticking with smallish TVs. The Optoma HD51A combines quality and convenience — courtesy of its new link to Alexa voice commands — with a price that will fit many home-theater budgets

Optoma, a world-leading manufacturer of video and audio products, is taking CES 2018 by storm with the first Alexa-enabled home theater projector. As smart home and IoT adoption and integration gain momentum, home theater enthusiasts now have the ability to integrate large-screen video into their Alexa ecosystem, tying in with speakers, lighting and more. With a continued focus on bringing new innovation to home theater projection that make it more accessible and mainstream, Optoma is also introducing and showcasing: a fully mobile 1080P high definition (HD) projector with an LED light source that delivers 1,300 lumens; new 4K-resolution, ultra high definition (UHD) home theater projectors, a segment that Optoma leads globally; and an ultra mobile pocket projector with 2+ hours of battery life.
