• Remote Control Passthrough – All projector functions accessible externally

• Filter Maintenance Access – Dedicated service port for filter replacement without disassembly

• Power Management – Surge-protected, filtered power with UPS backup for controlled shutdown

Modeling-Specific Enhancements

Sensor Integration Platform

• Modular Attachment Points – M6 and 1/4-20 threaded inserts for cameras, LiDAR, and sensors

• Pre-Calibrated Mounting Surfaces – Factory-aligned to projector optical axis

• Vibration-Isolated Camera Platform – Independent damping for measurement equipment

• Cable Routing Channels – Organized pathways for sync cables and data lines
