With the pandemic conditions starting to improve, face-to-face learning activities at schools are back to being held normally. Of course teaching and learning activities can be packaged more fun and easy to remember if presented in an interesting audio-visual form.
To display learning images or videos, a device such as a projector is needed. Using a projector in class also allows students to take notes better. If the lesson material is missed, students can ask the teacher to repeat the previous slide.
One of the advantages that can be obtained, by using a projector, the teacher not only displays learning material in written form, but also pictures, slides, videos or films. That way, the teaching and learning process in the classroom becomes more visually interesting.

In response to this, Acer presented its newest projector for the Indonesian market, which was named the Acer S1286H. This projector was specially designed by Acer to support learning activities, whether at school, course or lecture environment.
Here are a number of reasons why the Acer S1286H projector is very suitable to be relied upon to support teaching and learning activities so that they are more comfortable and effective.
Space Saving Short-Throw Feature
Most projectors require a wide distance and space so that the image can be projected properly. Acer S1286H projector with the Short-Throw feature which makes it not take up much space to display large image sizes.
Thanks to the Short-Throw feature, the Acer S1286H projector can display images very well up to 77 inches from a distance of only 97 cm. Of course, this allows the projector to be placed very close to a flat surface.

Interestingly, this feature cannot always be found by users on any projector. That way, this Acer flagship projector is clearly very suitable for use in classrooms that are not too large in size.
Then, what about the audio support? There is no need for additional external speakers, because the Acer S1286H is equipped with a built-in 16W speaker. This makes it not only able to display visuals, but also loud and high-quality audio.
Image Projection with High Resolution
The ability to project clear, high-resolution images is clearly a mandatory feature for a projector. The Acer S1286H has the ability to display high-quality images thanks to support for resolutions up to WUXGA (1,920 x 1,200).
Apart from having a high resolution, this projector also has a brightness of up to 3,500 ANSI Lumens which makes the content look very bright. Likewise with the contrast ratio that is owned, which is up to 20,000:1 so that the displayed colors look clearer.
Another attraction, Acer also includes a feature called Acer LumiSense. This feature works to adjust the image brightness and color saturation according to the type of content displayed. So that the brightness and saturation of the displayed image will look more optimal.
More Comfort with Acer BlueLightShield™
Complementing the capabilities of the Acer S1286H projector, the Acer BlueLightShield™ feature is also included. This feature will make the user’s eyes more comfortable and less tired when staring at content displayed through the projector for a long time.
Acer BlueLightShield™ has the ability to protect the eyes from strain by reducing blue light exposure by up to 30%. Exposure to blue light has the potential to cause eye fatigue, disrupt sleep patterns, and even damage the eyes in the long term.
With all the features it has, the Acer S1286H projector is ready to support more enjoyable teaching and learning activities. In addition, the teacher can also make all the material delivered to students more interesting both audio and visual.
