Sharp’s new A series models include the XP-A824U, XP-A104U, XP-A155U, XP-A175U, and the V series models include the XP-V731U and XP-V801U. Designed with WUXGA native resolution and 4K input support, these laser projectors deliver high brightness to overcome settings with ambient light and ensure clear, vivid images in well-lit spaces. With flexible installation options, including optional long and short-throw lenses, they adapt easily to a wide variety of environments from classrooms to corporate venues.

The XP-A824U (8,200 lumens), XP-A104U (10,000 lumens), XP-A155U (15,000 lumens), and XP-A175U (17,000 lumens) focus on image quality through Sharp’s proprietary high-performance video processing and scaling chip, paired with a dual blue laser system. Unique to the A Series is its IP5X-rated Sealed LCD cooling system, which prevents dust from entering the optical path – ensuring consistent brightness, image clarity, and virtually maintenance-free operation without filters.

The XP-V731U (7,300 lumens) and XP-V801U (8,000 lumens) are designed for cost-conscious customers who want high-impact visuals without sacrificing efficiency. They are compatible with legacy NEC lenses, allowing users to leverage existing optics for cost savings.

Both the A and V Series are equipped with a full suite of advanced features designed to simplify setup and deliver exceptional image performance. This includes Sharp’s geometric correction for projecting on non-standard surfaces, integrated edge blending for seamless multi-projector displays, and Roll Free orientation for flexible placement at virtually any angle. A Constant Brightness setting uses internal sensors to maintain a specified percentage of light output over an extended period of time. NaViSet Administrator 2 software allows users to control, monitor and manage the projector settings in an all-in-one software system. Multi-display TileMatrix technology enables large, high-resolution visuals without external processors, while ProAssist management software gives installers precise, remote control over image settings and adjustments.

The new series has range of ports including HDBaseT and dual HDMI (HDCP) inputs. Plus, the device is compatible with Crestron, Extron, AMX and PJLink control systems.
