Hitachi's 'Anti-Theft' Projector

Hitachi has launched a projector designed to make itself hard to steal and useless if it is. Projectors are valuable pieces of kit and unlike TVs, quite easy to pocket and therefore quite high on the modern burglar’s shopping list. The bright orange of the new ED-X10 LCD projector might do little for your décor but it has been designed to deter would-be thieves.

This might not suit every user but for anyone that needs a projector at home as well as in the office or classroom, this is certainly designed with safety in mind. On the specs front, it offers 2,000 ANSI Lumens brightness, a low contrast of 500:1 and the XGA resolution of 1024x768 means it can't handle high definition (HD). Still, what do you expect for £700?
