The latest introductions in the SLIM lineup offer remote operation capable through Crestron Roomview™, Intelligent Brightness Control, wired LAN projection and MobiShow®, which enables users to make presentations wirelessly via any smartphone, computer or other mobile device equipped with wireless LAN capabilities. Each model is fitted with a fully connectable interface, including three types of video and audio inputs, as well as HDMI, RGB and RS-232C terminals.
