Nebula operates as the smart entertainment brand under the umbrella of Anker Innovations, a global consumer electronics company. Anker Innovations was established in 2011 by Steven Yang, a former senior algorithm engineer at Google. Yang, after earning a master's degree in Computer Science, identified a market opportunity for reliable mobile charging solutions and returned to China to found the company. This foundation in high-quality power accessories allowed Anker to expand into multiple consumer electronics categories, including the creation of the Nebula brand.

The Nebula brand focuses on the portable entertainment market, specifically through its line of smart projectors. The business model revolves around the design, manufacturing, and sale of these consumer electronic devices to a global audience through online channels like Amazon and its own website, as well as select retail partners. The products cater to individuals seeking flexible home entertainment, business presentation solutions, and on-the-go viewing experiences. As of late 2025, a strategic decision was made to merge the Nebula brand with Anker's audio brand, soundcore, to unify visual and audio product development.

Nebula's product portfolio consists of a range of smart projectors that vary in size, resolution, and features. A key product line is the 'Capsule' series, known for its compact, can-sized design that offers portability with features like a built-in battery and 360-degree sound. These devices often run on an Android TV operating system, providing direct access to streaming applications like Netflix and YouTube. Higher-end models, such as the Cosmos and X1 series, deliver 4K resolution, increased brightness up to 3,500 ANSI lumens, and advanced imaging technologies like Dolby Vision and laser light sources. Unique selling points across the product range include automated setup features like autofocus, keystone correction, and obstacle avoidance, all designed to simplify the user experience.
