The UR 7000 projector is one of the first commercial native UXGA (1600 X 1200) projectors available on the market, equipped with unique features to make it the reference for meeting rooms and production houses requiring high resolution data and/or video projection. The projector’s picture-in-picture (PiP) feature allows the presenter to display up to two fully resizable source windows on the screen simultaneously and its seamless switching capability between data and video or video and video puts an end to the distracting ‘no picture’ waiting moments that appear when source windows are added.

The extended set of standard connections, including video, s-video, SDI and high-resolution 5 BNC can be extended with an optional HD-SDI connection. An optional network module is available to allow remote control and diagnostics.
The SLM G8 and R8 Executive are the first high-brightness yet compact DLP™ projectors for the fixed install presentation market. The SLM G8 and R8 Executive reach brightness levels of 8,000 ANSI Lumens and are equipped with features such as seamless switching and switchable high-contrast mode.
