Epson to Showcase High-Brightness Home Projection at CEDIA Expo 2026

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. - Aug. 21, 2026 - As projection technology continues to advance, new innovations in brightness, HDR performance and installation flexibility are expanding the possibilities for immersive, large-screen entertainment in the home. At CEDIA Expo 2026 in Denver, Colo., from Sept. 1-4, Epson will showcase its latest home projection solutions in booth #1319, demonstrating how advancements in projection technology can deliver premium viewing experiences across dedicated home theaters and thoughtfully designed living spaces while giving integrators new ways to complement the aesthetics and functionality of the home.

"Advancements in projection technology are giving integrators more options for delivering compelling large-screen entertainment in spaces that may have traditionally been challenging for projection," said Melvin Diaz, senior product manager, home entertainment, Epson America, Inc. "At CEDIA Expo, we're excited to demonstrate how the Q-Series platform combines high brightness, exceptional image performance and a compact, thoughtfully designed form factor to bring immersive cinema experiences to more rooms. From dedicated home theaters designed for large cinematic experiences to beautiful living spaces with more ambient light, the Q-Series gives integrators the flexibility to create an extraordinary viewing experience while allowing the technology to elegantly disappear into the space."

At CEDIA Expo, attendees will have the opportunity to experience the following at the Epson booth:

• The Art of Home Cinema - Epson will showcase the 10,000-lumen¹ QL7000 4K² 3LCD Laser Projector paired with Stewart Filmscreen's new slimmer profile Director's Choice Generation 2 four-way masking screen - an impressive 215-inch cinematic 2.0:1 display optimized for today's growing library of cinematic 2.0:1 streaming content. The setup will showcase the impact of high-brightness projection and stunning HDR performance at an impressive cinematic scale. The StudioTek 130 G4 acoustically transparent screen enables seamless behind-the screen speaker integration, maintaining precise LCR localization and a cohesive soundstage while delivering a clean, immersive theater aesthetic.
• Elegantly Invisible Projection -The QL7000 will also be paired with Stewart Filmscreen's 160-inch Balón Edge Phantom HALR+ ambient-light-rejecting, acoustically transparent screen to demonstrate high-brightness projection in environments with controlled ambient light. The acoustically transparent screen supports behind-screen speaker integration, while the Phantom HALR+ material maintains image contrast in higher ambient-light conditions. A second projection experience pairs the QL7000 with the ELPLX02S short-throw lens and Stewart Filmscreen's 135-inch Luxus G2 Electric Roller Screen with GrayMatte 70 material. The projector is ceiling-integrated with only the lens visible, while the screen hides away when not in use. Both installations demonstrate projection as an integrated alternative to direct-view displays and video walls, minimizing visual impact.
• Q-Series Performance Comparison - A live projector comparison will demonstrate key Q-Series performance differences in brightness, HDR and color, showing how each model can be matched to specific home entertainment applications.
