BrightLink 455Wi
Interactive Projector

Now, you can make almost any wall — or even a tabletop — interactive with the BrightLink 455Wi. This high-performance projector + pen combination integrates interactive functionality in one machine without the constraints or expense of an interactive whiteboard. And, it’s compatible with Windows® Ink Tools to easily add annotations and more. With ultra-short throw distance, extraordinary size flexibility, a 12 watt speaker and fully-loaded projector technologies, BrightLink redefines a true all-in-one solution for the learning community.

  • Make walls or tabletops interactive — interactive functionality in one projector + pen combination; no need to purchase an expensive whiteboard; one simple solution, two ways to interact

Easy integration

BrightLink is software agnostic allowing seamless integration with countless widgets, wikis, apps and software applications. It also includes feature-rich Teamboard Draw annotation software, and for those users on Windows Vista® and Windows 7 operating systems, BrightLink is compatible with Windows Ink Tools, allowing users to unlock the built-in, tablet-based tools included in the MS Office suite including Excel,® Powerpoint® and Word.®

Additionally, BrightLink is cross-compatible with most instructional software applications including Smart® Notebook and Promethean ActivInspire.™ And for schools that have not already standardized on an education software program, BrightLink is also available with optional RM Easiteach curriculum software.

Ultra-short throw

BrightLink’s ultra-short throw projector design eliminates many of the common problems of interactive systems, such as an intrusive classroom footprint, as well as eye glare. With an incredibly efficient .37 throw ratio, BrightLink, allows you to project extra-large, 80" images while the projector is less than 10" away from the image surface, greatly reducing shadows that often appear when using a traditional short-throw projectors. The new optical design includes leading-edge 3LCD chip technology to deliver brilliant images in extra-large sizes. This new ultra-short throw projector includes the wall mount which is designed for simple wall installation.

Ultra flexible

While interactive whiteboards are limited to a predetermined height and width, BrightLink has no such constraints. Set the size of the interactive area to fit your available space. BrightLink’s size-adjustment also means a simpler solution for technology managers. Use one type of hardware to fit in various types of spaces, and reduce the complexity and cost of managing and maintaining multiple types of equipment. And, with Epson software, EasyMP® Network Projection and EasyMP Monitor included, it is easy to monitor and control all networked Epson projectors.

Ultra versatile

BrightLink works on almost any surface — an existing whiteboard, a flat wall, a chalkboard with dry-erase paint or a table. Interactive capabilities are built into the projector and not into a board, so virtually any surface will work. Teachers were thrilled to learn they can keep using their dry-erase boards with the BrightLink projector. Save money by not having to hassle with uninstalling perfectly good boards. Instead, transform all those dry-erase boards into multi-function devices just by adding interactive functionality.

Advanced connectivity and management capabilities

BrightLink works seamlessly with existing systems for easy and consistent management over all projectors on the network. With Epson EasyMP Monitor software and Network Projection software, both included with BrightLink, users can present, monitor and manage their projector fleet over the network.
