The education sector remained the key demand driver for the segment as per the CMR report. Home theatre projectors saw increasing traction in the year gone by and are estimated to contribute about 3% of overall projector sales.

Commenting on its strategy in the Indian market Epson India said it will continue to focus on Enterprise, Education and Home segments in 2014-15. For the enterprise segment Epson said it has improved ease of use, portability and efficiency in its projectors for business meetings. Projectors with high functionality, thin and lightweight form factor, and with automatic screen adjustment features, all at attractive price points, make them the preferred choice with corporates.

For the education segment Epson said it will provide value for educators with products that make it easy-to-understand and easy-to-teach thereby making students more interested in learning. It will do this by encouraging the adoption of proprietary Epson functionality such as short throw and interactive projectors.

The focus will be on 3D HD projectors in a market that is increasingly accepting a home theatre projector as an integral component of the home entertainment experience.

According to Epson its 3 LCD projectors have been found to be upto 3 times brighter than similar competitive technology brands and this has been another key driver for its growth over competition.
