InFocus Corporation, the worldwide leader in digital projection technology and services, today announced that the InFocus LP(r)120, the first personal, mobile business projector; the InFocus LP640, the newest wirelessly enabled meeting room projector; and InFocus LiteShow(r), the secure wireless projection solution, have all received CES Innovations 2004 Design and Engineering Showcase Awards.

Judges for the CES Innovations awards chose InFocus products for their superior user value, aesthetics, contributions to the quality of life, innovative quality and design. InFocus will be honored at a reception on January 7th, 2004 at CES in Las Vegas, and the products will be on display at booth #15127 at CES January 8-11, 2004.

"We are honored to receive three CES Innovations 2004 Design and Engineering Showcase Awards, which validate our commitment to innovation, excellence, and consumer-based design," said Kyle Ranson, President and Chief Operating Officer at InFocus Corporation. "As projectors become a commonplace at work and at home, InFocus will continue to innovate to provide consumers with the highest quality big picture solutions."

Recognized as an honoree in the mobile electronics category, the innovative InFocus LP120 is the world's first personal projector. Weighing in at a feather-light, sub two pounds (0.9 kg), the LP120 presents a sleek, narrow profile that was designed to fit into a briefcase along side a notebook computer, making it easy to stow and carry all in one bag. The LP120 is easy to use, with the industry's first interactive display that indicates the working status of the projector in seven languages, and also includes color-coded cables that take the guess work out of set-up and use.

The judges also recognized the InFocus LP640 as an honoree in the meeting room projector category. The LP640 is the newest meeting room projector by InFocus and combines intuitive expertise with superior capability. Users get instant accessibility to high-end features, including wireless connectivity and out-of-the-box networking capabilities, all designed with the input of consumers who use projectors. The LP640 offers outstanding color saturation with 2500 lumens of brightness combined with breakthrough features including automatic image synchronization for fast set-up and use. Additionally, quiet operation and superb audio fidelity keep the audience focused on the presenter, not the equipment.

The InFocus LiteShow has been recognized as an honoree in the wireless communications category. Boldly designed for unsurpassed simplicity-of-use, LiteShow is the world's first "connect and project", zero-configuration wireless projection system. Created to produce more efficient meetings where users can securely project and share their ideas from anywhere in the room, LiteShow is compatible with any projector with an M1-DA or M1-D standard connector, and features performance and security on par with cabled projection.
