Within education, Epson has an interactive market share of 72.1% across EMEAR¹.
Enhancing learning through interactivity
Whether in the classroom or lecture theatre, using finger-touch or dual pen interactivity, Epson’s interactive teaching solutions make it easy to display and edit a wide range of content. Annotate presentations in real time, write, draw and add comments and answers directly onto the screen, as well as saving and sharing collaborative work.
Our new interactive pens are more comfortable to use, with hard or soft tips and battery life three times longer than previous models. Some projectors also feature finger-touch control for even easier involvement.
Advanced interactive teaching solution
Epson education projectors offer dual pen interactivity (EB-710Ui, EB-696Ui, EB-695Wi, EB-685Wi, EB-680Wi, EB-675Wi only) with a new pen design for comfortable writing and a choice of hard or soft tips, as well as finger-touch interactivity (EB-710Ui, EB-696Ui, EB-695Wi, EB-680Wi only).
All models have extensive PC-free annotation functions and enhanced moderator function, as well as split-screen capabilities and ultra-wide multiscreen interactivity. Users can also control additional equipment such as a document camera directly from the projector, and all models come with HDMI inputs, integrated 16w speaker and microphone input.
Encourages imagination
Academic studies have shown that interactive classroom devices such as Epson’s education projector range can help students develop significantly greater creativity, flexibility and originality, as well as improving motivation to learn, and allowing teachers to create attention-grabbing and relevant teaching materials².
Intuitive and easy to use
All our interactive teaching solutions have extensive connectivity options that are simple to set up and use, with comprehensive features and apps to make sharing information easy and engaging. From fast connection to students' PCs to wireless access for smartphones and tablets, they add engagement and involvement to any learning environment.
Promotes critical thinking
Interactive teaching solutions offer more tools for engaging the entire class and allowing them to exercise their critical skills than traditional teaching methods. Students can use their tablets, laptops or smartphones to respond to multiple choice questions, vote in polls or give feedback, with the results shown instantly on screen. This helps to involve the entire class in the discussion - especially useful with larger class sizes - while the personal engagement and relative anonymity encourage greater interaction from far more students.
Enhances technology skills
Technology skills are vital for the modern workplace, regardless of industry sector, and interactive products help provide teachers and students with the skills they require, almost as a by-product of engaging with lesson materials and tasks. Epson's interactive display solutions encourage students to interact with creative tasks and display their work on the big screen, building computer skills and instilling familiarity with wireless and projector technology.

No reflections
Many flatscreen models have very shiny screens, meaning that content can be obscured by reflections from ceiling lights or windows. This isn’t a problem with an Epson projector, as it projects content directly onto a wall, screen or whiteboard, meaning no troublesome reflections. Also, Epson projectors are bright enough to be used in daylight without losing readability.
Unrestricted viewing
Some flat panels have restricted viewing angles, making it hard to see content on the screen when not viewed from head-on. This is not the case with Epson projectors, which have no such blind spots, meaning everyone in the room can see content clearly.
Gentle on the eye
Flat panel RGB screens can appear pixellated when seen in close proximity for long periods – such as during interactive presentations or prolonged collaboration – potentially causing strain to the eyes. Projectors have less pixellation than flat panel displays, and with automatic light adjustment can be viewed in comfort for longer periods.
