Optoma unveils neat solution for gamers, sports fans and film buffs homes

Gamers and those that love to watch TV, sports or films will be thrilled with the new Optoma GT5000 projector, just launched. Its ultra-short lens allows you to show extra-large 100-inch images on any wall, with the projector placed just 30cm away.

With its Full HD 1080p resolution, incredible 33ms input lag and quick response time, this home entertainment projector offers gamers a competitive advantage.

Optoma’s Head of Product Marketing, Justin Halls, said: “Many people are using their TV for gaming, sports and films and they are missing out. The portable 100-inch super-sized screen offered by the GT5000 enables everyone to enjoy high resolution, life-size images in any room in their home.”

The GT5000’s sleek design, high brightness and mobility allows users to move it from one room to another. It fits perfectly into any interior, and because it doesn’t need to be set very far back from the wall – unsightly cables in the middle of the room are a thing of the past.

Easy to set-up, the GT5000’s broad connectivity includes two HDMI inputs for connection to any device. This means games consoles, Blu-ray players or digital television set top boxes can be simultaneously connected, making switching between sources literally the push of a button.

The GT5000 comes complete with a built-in speaker that delivers powerful 16W audio, with exceptional sound quality. Despite the small dimensions of the projector, the level of audio created will easily fill a living space. An audio output is also included, enabling connection to external sound systems.

It can even be turned into a smart display by connecting a HDMI dongle like the HDCast Pro, Google Chromecast™ or Apple TV™ to play games, stream videos and share photos on the big screen at home.

The GT5000 can display true 3D content from almost any 3D source, including 3D Blu-ray players, 3D broadcasting and the latest generation games consoles. Support for 144Hz rapid refresh rate provides ultra-smooth flicker free images. The 3D-sync port can connect to an Optoma ZF2300 starter kit – required for 3D viewing (sold separately).

A full specification sheet for the GT5000 together with information on the full product range, brochures and images of the projectors are available from www.optoma.com
