Ultra Short-Throw Projectors

An ultra short throw projector (sometimes called a laser TV) can cast a large image onto a wall or screen from a very short distance. It is ideal for use in small spaces where there isn’t enough room to place the projector far away from the wall. It also eliminates the need for a lot of additional setup as you don’t need to worry about mounting the projector on the ceiling or keeping the space clear between the projector and the screen.

Ultra short throw laser projectors are usually more expensive than other types of projectors because they need specialized lenses in order to project a non-distorted image from a very tight angle. They are, however, highly convenient if you have limited space and want a large image because, unlike large televisions, projectors and projector screens can be stored out of the way. And, some of them, like ambient light rejecting projector screens, help enhance the image by deflecting surrounding light away.

When choosing the best ultra short throw projector for you, consider everything you need to know before you buy a projector, including placement options and light sources. Determining the resolution you would like to have is also essential. Ultra short throw laser projectors provide a clearer and crisper image quality than lamp projectors. You’ll find that the vast majority of the best UST projectors use laser technology for that reason.

An ultra short throw projector 4K device is ideal for the very best quality. If you own a 4K Blu-ray player or stream 4K content, splurging on a 4K projector will also mean you get to watch content at its peak quality. If you are looking for an experience similar to going to a movie theater right in the comfort of your own home, a 4K UST laser projector, or any UST projector, is a significant investment in your home entertainment setup. So, make sure you also invest in a good home theater audio system to fully round out the experience.
