Headquartered in Allendale, New Jersey, and Beaverton, Oregon, PLUS Vision Corporation of America manufactures and markets both extremely sophisticated and affordable ultra-lightweight, ultra-portable digital projectors under the PLUS brand name. We also manufacture and market full featured PLUS brand electronic copy boards and real-time interactive whiteboards. Featuring an unprecedented level and range of performance options, PLUS communication and information products are designed to provide a high degree of value to today's mobile professionals, including corporate presenters, medical and legal professionals, educators, trainers, military/government professionals, and technical consultants. Parent company PLUS Corporation is a 50-year-old company with consolidated revenue of $1.5 billion from its presentation, office and communications products. In 1998, PLUS created the Presentation and Communications Division to handle R&D and marketing for its electro-optical product line. That was also the year that PLUS began selling its first projector based on DLPT technology, the UP-800, the world's first sub-10-pound projector, combining the Digital Light Processing technology developed by Texas Instruments with PLUS Corp.'s unique optical technologies. At about that same time, the projector market began its rapid growth, fueled by increasing demand for smaller, lighter, better-performing presentation products for conference rooms, mobile presentations, schools and other applications. PLUS leads in the advancement of this trend with the development of a series of groundbreaking projectors that were progressively smaller and lighter, yet able to deliver higher brightness levels. What's more, these new size, weight, and brightness levels were achieved without sacrificing any of the performance features customers have come to rely upon. Following up the breakthrough UP-800 was the UP-1100, at the time the world's lightest XGA projector to feature DLP technology. In 1999, PLUS again broke the weight barrier with the U2 series projectors. At six pounds each, they once again gave PLUS the lightweight crown. That record was quickly broken, however, when the following year PLUS introduced the three-pound U3 Series projectors. In 2002 the company remained true to its reputation, introducing the V-Series, the world's first two-pound Digital Light Processing technology-enabled projectors, and the worlds smallest and lightest home theater projector, the Piano HE-3100. Throughout this time, PLUS projectors received a series of design awards, including Germany's IF Design Award, Japan's Good Design Award three years in a row, and most recently, the 2002 International Consumer Electronics Show Innovations Award. Mr. S. Mark Hand, who has served as President of Light ware since the company was acquired by PLUS in December 2000, became PLUS Vision Corp. of America's Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Business Products Group. He will continue to be based in Beaverton, Oregon, where Light ware was founded in 1995 to deliver affordable, portable projection technology for large and small businesses, mobile professionals, as well as the education and government markets. The Oregon office will now serve as the headquarters for PLUS' Business Products Group.more...
