Hoofddorp, 12 April, 2011 – Vivitek Corporation, a leading manufacturer of environmentally innovative visual display and presentation products, today announced the Vivitek D855ST, a short-throw projector designed to cater for the needs of the education market.
The D855ST enables a 77” screen image at 1-meter projection distance (0.65:1 throw ratio). This allows the teacher to stand close to the screen without incurring any shadows on the projected image. It also makes for an efficient use of space, which can be a benefit in many classrooms. The D855ST offers XGA resolution and 4:3 aspect ratio to fit most interactive whiteboards.

This 5-year product and 3-year lamp warranty is available for education establishments only and to qualify the Vivitek projector must have been purchased from an authorised Vivitek reseller on or after 1, April 2011. The improved warranty is valid only in respect of the Vivitek Education range of projectors, which includes the D855ST and the projectors listed (below).
