Epson has launched its new flagship ultra-short throw (UST) EH-LS970B projector which brings 8.3 million-pixel real 4K1, 3LCD, 3-chip technology with up to 3x brighter colours and reliable performance2, Bose3 audio and AI-powered image optimisation to premium home cinema.
Engineered for film lovers and design-conscious users alike, the EH-LS970B combines next-generation picture performance with an elegant UST form factor that sits just 28 cm from the wall while delivering up to a 150-inch image.
The new EH-LS970B enables users to make their home centre stage for all the action with advanced pixel-shifting technology that works in parallel with three individual high-definition LCD chips to produce an exceptionally sharp 4K (8.3 million pixels) picture while maintaining outstanding brightness.
Powered by Epson’s laser optical engine, the EH-LS970B produces white light and colour light output of 4,000 lumens, delivering bright images perfect for everyday entertainment and beyond. Full 10-bit HDR colour processing accepts 100% of the HDR source.
With an exceptional 5,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, the EH-LS970B delivers stunning depth and clarity across every scene. Dark areas look richer and more detailed, while bright highlights stay vivid, creating a cinematic, lifelike image.
Scene Adaptive Gamma enhances depth and tonal balance, revealing shadow detail while preserving natural highlights. Dynamic Tone Mapping intelligently optimises HDR performance by analysing each scene in real time to precisely adjust brightness, contrast and colour for a consistently refined viewing experience.
Powered by advanced AI image processing, the EH-LS970B takes picture quality to the next level. Its AI super resolution technology intelligently sharpens fine details for crystal-clear images, while the AI perceptual quantiser optimises brightness and contrast to deliver natural, lifelike tones. Additionally, de-contour smooths out banding and artifacts, ensuring every scene appears seamless and true to life.
Setting up the EH-LS970B is easy with the Epson Setting Assistant4 app, which uses your mobile device’s camera to automatically correct projection distortion for an optimal image fit.
