Epson Integrate 2026 plans put two new projectors front and centre, as the professional AV specialist prepares to fill stand HK12 at the ICC Sydney from 2 to 4 September 2026. The company says its presence at the show will demonstrate not just what projection can do, but how far the category can be pushed when image quality, scale, reliability and installation flexibility come together in one complete solutions portfolio.
Built around the theme Larger Than Life, Epson’s stand is designed to give consultants, integrators, venue operators, educators, event specialists, designers and media a chance to experience the breadth of the company’s projection ecosystem in one place, while speaking directly with specialists who understand real-world deployment across corporate, education, retail, hospitality, museum, signage and large venue environments.
Epson argues the market is moving beyond brightness as the sole selling point. Buyers and specifiers increasingly want systems that combine visual impact with practical installation benefits, dependable long-term performance, strong connectivity and the flexibility to support a wide range of content and environments, and the company positions itself as the most experienced and established innovator in projection able to deliver that at scale.

A Larger Than Life stand experience
The stand concept uses ultra-high-resolution macro photography of insects to reveal textures, patterns and colours that are usually invisible to the naked eye. Oversized foliage and natural elements throughout the exhibition space heighten the feeling of amplification, surrounding visitors with imagery meant to be vivid, precise and memorable.
The result, according to Epson, is a visual statement that underscores its capabilities in large-format display, colour vibrancy, fine detail reproduction and image quality more broadly. It is as much a demonstration of what its projection technology can do as it is a piece of stand design.
EB-XQ2030B: a 30,000-lumen 4K projector in a compact body
The hero product at Epson Integrate 2026 is the EB-XQ2030B, a new projector scheduled to launch later in 2026. Epson describes it as the world’s smallest and lightest 30,000-lumen 4K projector, built for applications where very high brightness, premium image performance and a compact form factor all matter at once, including large venues, live events, visitor attractions, staging environments and premium commercial installations.
It combines Epson 4K Crystal Motion with 3LCD laser technology, aiming for sharp image clarity, vibrant colour and strong contrast even on very large screens. The compact footprint is meant to make transport, handling and setup considerably easier than typical projectors in this brightness class, a point that matters for rental and staging businesses, systems integrators and venue teams working to tight schedules.
Epson’s patented Advanced Cooling Engine is designed to support reliable long-term performance, while Intel SDM-ready connectivity is intended to streamline system integration for installers. The EB-XQ2030B also shares its lens platform with the rest of Epson’s high-brightness range, which protects existing lens investments and should make deployment more efficient for partners and end users.
EB-870Ei targets education and collaboration
The second hero product on show is the EB-870Ei, a new interactive ultra-short-throw laser projector due to launch in early 2027. Aimed at education and collaborative environments, it pairs large, bright images with 4K Enhancement technology and interactive functionality in a format built to encourage participation and shared learning.
Its ultra-short-throw design is intended to maximise usable wall space while reducing shadows and glare, making for a more comfortable viewing experience for teachers, students and teams. Built-in wireless connectivity and Apple AirPlay support are designed to make content sharing straightforward, while the interactive capabilities push the EB-870Ei beyond passive display toward active collaboration in classrooms and meeting spaces.
The wider lineup on show at Integrate 2026
Beyond the two hero launches, Epson is bringing a broader selection of products to Integrate 2026 to demonstrate depth across professional applications. The EB-L795SE is a short-throw laser projector rated at 7,000 lumens with WUXGA resolution and 4K Enhancement, a 1.7x optical zoom and display sizes up to 400 inches. It supports AirPlay and Miracast casting, offers up to 20,000 hours of maintenance-free laser light source life and is compatible with the ELPEC01 external camera, aimed at high ambient light environments needing flexibility and image quality together.
The EB-L690SE offers 6,000 lumens brightness, WUXGA resolution with 4K Enhancement and a short throw ratio of 0.5 to 0.7:1, suited to bright environments where installation space is limited. Lens shift, 1.4x optical zoom, keystone correction and 360-degree mounting add setup flexibility, backed by a laser light source and ELPEC01 external camera compatibility.
For meeting rooms and hybrid workspaces, Epson is showing the EB-810E, an ultra-short-throw model capable of producing displays up to 160 inches from the wall. It offers 5,000 lumens brightness and 1080p resolution with 4K Enhancement, along with setup via the Epson Setting Assistance app and support for multi-projection setups, designed for space-saving large-screen use where visibility and ease of installation both matter.
Rounding out the display, the EV-115 LightScene is a distinctive digital signage-ready projector that blends projection and design into a compact, spotlight-style form. Delivering 2,200 lumens brightness and vibrant colour, it is positioned for retail, hospitality and other creative display environments where a more design-led approach to projection is needed.
Why Epson’s Integrate 2026 push matters
Integrate remains one of the most important meeting points for the professional AV industry in Australia, and Epson’s decision to lead with two hero launches, rather than a single flagship, signals how broad it wants its coverage to be across live events, education and everyday commercial installations. The EB-XQ2030B in particular targets a segment where rental and staging companies have long had to trade off brightness against portability, and a genuinely compact 30,000-lumen unit would remove some of that compromise.
The EB-870Ei, meanwhile, points to where classroom and meeting room technology is heading, with interactivity and wireless sharing built in rather than bolted on. For integrators and buyers attending the show, the combination of a high-brightness venue projector and an interactive education model, alongside the existing short-throw and ultra-short-throw range, gives a fairly complete picture of where Epson intends to compete over the next twelve months. Anyone specifying projection for a large venue, a classroom or a hybrid meeting room over that period will likely find at least one of these models relevant to the brief.
