Designed for installation, they have support for AMX, Crestron and Extron control systems.

The new BenQ laser projectors also support a dual-screen feature, where two individual projections merge into one large projection image or split the projection so that different, complementary content can be displayed on both sides. The built-in Windows gesture control allows multi-touch commands, zooming and scrolling .
