These intuitive LCD projectors integrate seamlessly into any layout, minimizing distractions while simplifying installation with exclusive features. With a stylish body containing recycled plastic and engineered for efficient, low-maintenance operation, the VMZ82 Series revitalizes communication quality in offices, classrooms, and beyond.
Clear Projection Tailored to Your Space
Delivering up to 8,000 lm from the smallest, lightest body in class, images remain sharp, clear, and bright under lights. Dynamic Contrast defines light and dark areas, enhancing depth and realism. Enjoy visuals optimized to ambient lighting, while Vivid Green Mode boosts color vibrancy for impressive visual impact.
Up to 8,000 lm for Stunning Visuals Under Lights
The VMZ82 Series high-efficiency optical engine delivers up to 8,000 lm brightness, ensuring clear, sharp, and vibrant visuals in well-lit spaces. Enhance viewer comfort and communication quality in meetings and classes without dimming the lights or pulling the blinds.
High 5,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast
Input signals are analyzed frame by frame to regulate light output for best contrast performance in every scene. As well as accurately reproducing pictures that contain a mix of dark and bright hues, Dynamic Contrast is more energy efficient than other technologies and can be optimized to suit the content or the room's lighting. The projector's high 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio provides better detail definition in shadows with deeper blacks, brighter whites, and more natural skin tones for a better sense of depth and definition.
Optimized Visuals for Bright Spaces
Daylight View Basic uses a sensor to measure ambient light levels in your room and adjusts sharpness, halftone color, contrast, and brightness to optimize image visibility regardless of room illumination. The result is a clearer, more detailed image, even in challenging conditions.
Smooth, Crisp Details at WUXGA
WUXGA (1920 x 1200) LCD panels improve detail definition for a more comfortable and insightful experience. Text edges are smooth, sharp, and easy to read, even for those seated furthest from the screen.
Vivid Green Mode for Lifelike Sports Simulation
The VMZ82 Series introduces a new Vivid Green Mode that enhances green tones for brighter, more natural-looking images - ideal for golf and other sports simulations. By adjusting signal gain and optimizing color balance, this mode delivers deeper greens and brighter midtones for a more vivid and engaging viewing experience.
Supports Widescreen Video Content
Display widescreen content, such as 21:9 video conferencing layouts, at its original aspect ratio. Remote participants' faces can be aligned at eye level with in-room attendees, improving communication and engagement during meetings or classes.
Quiet Operation for Hybrid Lessons and Meetings
The projector's heat-resistant light source reduces operating noise, enhancing the clarity of conversations during in-person or hybrid lessons and meetings. In Quiet 2 Mode, operating noise is as low as 25 dB - about as soft as the sound of rustling leaves.
Stylish Design Blends Into Your Room
Available in black or white, VMZ82 Series projectors feature a compact form that harmonizes unobtrusively into any environment. Whether installed in an office, classroom, or museum, the projector minimizes distractions, keeping the focus on your presentation.
Stress-Free Installation Flexibility
Weighing just 7.4 kg (16.3 lbs), this compact projector integrates seamlessly into any space, projecting a 100-inch image from 2.35 m (7.71 ft). Its 1.6x optical zoom, V/H lens shift, and Digital Zoom Extender enhance flexibility. Angle Monitor, Grid function, and Curved Screen Correction streamline setup further.
Installation Streamlined with 1.6x Zoom and Lens Shift
Maximize your screen area in rooms of any shape or size. The VMZ82 Series can project a 100-inch image from 2.35 m (7.71 ft) and delivers bright, vibrant visuals on screens up to 300 inches. Its 1.6x optical zoom (throw ratio: 1.09-1.77:1) offers flexibility in mounting, making it easier to work around ceiling obstructions or adjust the image to fit the screen from an existing mount. Combined with lens shift (V: +44%, H: +/-20%), it supports off-axis and high mounting positions while maintaining accurate image geometry.
Digital Zoom Extender and Digital Image Shift
Digital Zoom Extender increases the projector's throw distance beyond its optical zoom range, making it possible to reuse your existing ceiling mount or install the projector farther from the screen, saving construction work. Digital Image Shift allows the image to move up to 10% in any direction for off-axis or high-ceiling installations.
Quickly Find the Projection Angle with Angle Monitor
Aligning the projection angle with the design simulation can be challenging and usually requires two people. The VMZ82 Series features a built-in gyro sensor that detects changes in the projector's pitch and roll angles, which are graphically displayed in the OSD menu. Installers can adjust the projection angle without needing assistance.
Upgraded Screen Adjustment with New GUI
The VMZ82 Series introduces an upgraded Screen Adjustment suite with an intuitive new Graphical User Interface (GUI). Designed to simplify setup in various spaces - including curved screens - the GUI streamlines adjustments via remote control without the need for a connected PC, making installation faster, easier, and more flexible than ever.
Precise Line Adjustment via Grid Function
Grid function enables correction of minor distortion by adjusting horizontal or vertical lines on a fixed 11 x 17 grid. Correction is easily performed via remote control.
Enhanced Curved Screen Correction
Curved Correction now allows each side of the image to be adjusted independently - unlike previous models, where opposite sides moved in tandem. This added flexibility supports more accurate correction on curved surfaces, ideal for sports simulators, museum exhibits, and corporate displays.
6-Point Screen Adjustment System for Corner Projection
For corner-based or column projections, the 6-Point Screen Adjustment system enables fine-tuned control over image geometry. It's ideal for maximizing screen use in compact meeting spaces or creating striking visual installations in galleries and showrooms.
Independent 4-Corner Adjustment
Correct trapezoidal distortion from off-center or angled projector placement. 4-Corner Adjustment lets users independently control each image corner via remote control. Settings can be saved and reapplied, streamlining setup across multiple rooms or sessions.
Maintain Aspect Ratio for Natural Scaling
Maintain Aspect Ratio preserves the image's proportions during adjustment, preventing warping or stretching. It ensures content looks natural while still allowing for edge-to-edge alignment, providing a clean, professional finish in any space.
Single-Cable 4K Digital Link Solution
4K Digital Link is a connection based on HDBaseT that supports long-distance video, audio, and control-signal transmission via a single CAT 5e LAN cable, reducing installation complexity in schools, offices, and entertainment spaces.
Accepts 4K Signals via HDMI and Digital Link
The VMZ82 Series accepts 4K video signals via Digital Link and HDMI terminals, simplifying projector integration into your existing infrastructure. This capability enables 4K signal transmission to display endpoints with varying screen resolutions, eliminating the need for external converters or content re-encoding.
