The Vivitek DU775Z-UST is an impressive ultra-short throw laser projector well-suited for educational and corporate settings with limited space, but where a large, high-quality image is still needed. With its sleek, compact design and ability to project a 150” image from just over 3 feet away, this Vivitek model can fit into tight spaces with a big screen experience.
Quick review
The DU775Z-UST impresses with its bright, vivid picture and lack of distortion, even at large image sizes—the 5000 ANSI lumens brightness and high 3000:1 contrast ratio result in a crisp, clear picture. Thanks to Vivitek’s BrilliantColor technology, the colours look natural and well-saturated, and the WUXGA 1920×1200 resolution gives you plenty of detail for full HD video and text-heavy presentations.
Image quality
The Vivitek DU775Z-UST has excellent image quality with a telecentric lens system that reduces defocusing and flare, even when projecting large screen sizes up to 150 inches diagonally, making it well-suited for demanding applications.
It also has a concave reflect mirror to reduce flare and distortion, keeping straight lines true and the image geometry accurate even at wide angles.
Connectivity
Connection options are plentiful, with dual HDMI inputs, VGA, USB and RJ45 providing flexibility. Network monitoring and control options allow easy integration into smart classroom and conference room setups and there’s a powered USB port to connect and power external devices like wireless presentation clickers.
Notable features
Some notable features that make the DU775Z-UST well-suited for business and education are the 20,000-hour laser light source, flexible 360-degree placement, and optional interactive modes. The long-lasting laser means minimal maintenance and downtime.
Thanks to the wide projection angle, you can install the projector in ceilings or angle it from tables or floor mounts. Touch capability can be added with finger compatibility for interactive presentations, or you can hook up an IR pen.
