Appotronics is a laser display technology company originating in cinema projection that is now bringing its in-house RGB laser platform to the large-venue pro AV market. Peter, Sales Director of North America, presented the company’s product lineup at InfoComm 2026 booth N7071, highlighting the transition from cinema light-source manufacturing to full single-chip DLP projector systems. Appotronics designs and builds its laser light sources, optics, and projection engines entirely in-house under its proprietary LPD technology platform.

HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

The centerpiece demonstration was a 15,000-lumen RGB laser projector designed for large-venue applications. Appotronics currently offers RGB laser-based single-chip DLP projectors scaling from 10,000 to 25,000 lumens, with the 25,000-lumen model representing what the company describes as the highest brightness achieved on single-chip DLP using their architecture. The booth setup featured two 25,000-lumen projectors equipped with ultra-short-throw lenses—also designed and manufactured by Appotronics—blended together to create a large-format projection-mapping display aimed at digital signage applications as an alternative to LED walls.
A significant new product launch at InfoComm was the AI Mapper software, which received a Best of Show award at the event. The system uses a mobile phone camera or industrial camera to capture a physical 3D model or object in real time, uploads the sampling data to the Appotronics server for algorithmic processing, and returns a pixel-accurate 3D map within minutes. Once mapped, content can be AI-generated through text prompts directly in the software interface, producing both still images and short video clips in roughly 30 to 60 seconds depending on server load. Users can select and prioritize viewing angles so that projection-mapped content adjusts dynamically for audience position.
The blend and show control pipeline runs through a partner server from Hackles, managed through a single software interface. This integration allows the two ultra-short-throw projectors to be geometrically aligned and edge-blended for seamless large-format display without complex external tooling. The target deployment scenarios discussed include museums, themed entertainment, and digital signage installations where dynamic, continuously rotating AI-generated projection-mapped content is desired.
Appotronics emphasized that its projection technology does not output direct laser light onto surfaces, meaning there is no UV emission that could damage sensitive artifacts or museum objects. Combined with the AI Mapper’s ability to generate unlimited prompted content, the company positioned this system as suitable for cultural institutions and venues that need frequently changing immersive shows without recurring content production costs.
