The best projector for school
When your projector is a few meters from the screen, there's a chance people walks past the projection. That's why a short throw or ultra short throw projector is a useful choice for a classroom. Do you need a projector for a large lit lecture hall? It's better to have a high light output and contrast ratio. We'll highlight 2 projectors.
BenQ TH671ST: large image from a short distance (classroom)
If you want to place the projector as close to the screen as possible, the BenQ TH671ST is something for you. You can place this short throw projector close to the projection surface, so your pupils can't walk in front of the image. This allows you to project a 100-inch projection from 1.5m away. Thanks to the 3000 ANSI lumens light output, the pupils will also see sharp images in daylight. The light intensity is also adjusted to the lighting of the room.
