The projector provides RS232 support for compatibility with third-party control systems. Using three robust 1.1-inch 3LCD inorganic panels that are durable, the FL6900U operates quietly at an approximate 29-dB level. It also provides estimated lamp life of up to 4,000 hours. The FL6900U can create side-by-side images for enhanced videoconferencing applications that include a live video feed and simultaneous presentations on the same screen. At 4,000 ANSI lumens, the projector works for large venues where ambient light can be a factor. The FL6900U is now available at $9,995. Visit www.mitsubishi-presentations.com.
