Panasonic PT-TW231RU 2500-Lumen WXGA Short Throw LCD Projector with 0.5:1 Throw Ratio

Product Description

The Panasonic PT-TW231RU is a short throw LCD projector designed for classrooms, training rooms, meeting spaces, and professional presentation environments. Delivering up to 2,500 lumens of brightness and supporting resolutions from 640 x 480 up to 1920 x 1200, it provides flexible widescreen projection for presentations, educational content, and multimedia playback.
