Frequently Asked Questions
What is a short throw projector?
Short-throw projectors are a type of projector that can display an image from a much closer distance than standard projectors. They are designed to provide a larger image size in smaller spaces, making them ideal for use in classrooms, boardrooms, home cinema or any environment where space is limited.
These projectors typically have a throw ratio of 0.49 to 1, which means that they can display an image of 100 inches diagonally from a distance of approx 3 feet away. They also have wide-angle lenses that allow for more flexibility in projector placement, making it easier to set up and adjust the image to fit your viewing area. Overall, short-throw projectors are a great option for those who want a big picture in a smaller space without sacrificing image quality or clarity.Â
How is a short throw projector different from a regular projector?
Short throw projectors are designed to project large images from a short distance, typically a few feet away from the screen or wall. This makes them ideal for small rooms or environments where space is limited. A traditional projector requires more space between the screen and the projector to produce a clear image.
What is the projection distance of a short throw projector?
A short throw projector typically projects an image from a shorter distance from as small 1.5m to produce a 2m wide image. This makes them ideal for small spaces or rooms with limited space.
Can a short throw projector be used in small rooms?
Absolutely! Short throw projectors are ideal for small rooms due to their ability to project large images from a short distance. They eliminate the need for you and your audience to dodge shadows or suffer from light blasting on their faces.
What are the advantages of using a short throw projector?
Short throw projectors have the advantage of producing a larger image from a short distance. This means you can enjoy a big screen viewing experience even in small spaces.
Do short throw projectors require special screens?
Short throw projectors don’t require special screens. If you have a high level of ambient light, then you can use a specialist screen to improve the image quality.
What kind of image quality can I expect with a short throw projector?
Short throw projectors typically produce high-quality, clear and sharp images, even in small spaces. With advanced features such as lens shift and keystone correction, you can easily adjust the image to your exact specifications. Expect exceptional image quality, vibrant colours and minimal distortion.
Are short throw projectors more expensive than regular projectors?
Short throw projectors can be slightly more expensive than regular projectors, but this depends on the specific features and brands you’re comparing. Short throw projectors can offer benefits such as reduced shadow interference, and compact design, making them well worth the investment for those who want to achieve a high-quality projection experience in limited space.
