WILSONVILLE, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 18, 2002

InFocus(R) Corporation (Nasdaq:INFS)(OSE:IFC), the worldwide leader in digital projection, today announced that the InFocus ScreenPlay 110 home entertainment projector has received Audio Video Interiors' 2002 Excellence in Design Award. The company received the PC World World Class Award earlier this year.

The first ScreenPlay projector from InFocus Corp., the ScreenPlay 110 delivers a stunning big-screen experience in a 6.7-pound package, and has quickly become one of the top-selling home entertainment projectors in the United States. Optimized for video, contrast, color saturation and quiet operation, the ScreenPlay 110 incorporates DLP(TM) technology from Texas Instruments as well as advanced DCDi(TM) video processing technology from Faroudja(TM). The ScreenPlay 110 is perfect for big-screen viewing of DVD/VHS movies, HDTV material, major sporting events and playing "life-size" video games.

"In designing the ScreenPlay 110, InFocus was committed to creating an industry benchmark for front projection in the home, just like we've done in the commercial market," said Scott Hix, vice president and general manager of InFocus' Home Entertainment division. "The Audio Video Interiors Excellence in Design Award validates InFocus' success in the home entertainment market by recognizing the ScreenPlay 110 as a high-performance, innovative projector."

This is the 12th year of the Excellence in Design Awards, which honors the best in consumer electronics for the home. To determine the winners, Audio Video Interior editors and product reviewers examined hundreds of products that appeared in the magazine's "Components" section over the past year.

"In order to be considered for 'The Excellence in Design Award,' products were judged on aesthetics, ergonomics and availability. The ScreenPlay 110 was chosen because its user friendly design blends well within a consumer's home," said Mary Ann Giorgio, staff editor of Audio Video Interiors.

This year's Excellence in Design Award winners will be honored with trophies at this year's CEDIA Expo held from September 26 - 29 in Minneapolis. Winners will also be featured in the year-end supplement, Living the Electronic Life, published by Audio Video Interiors.
