How do you use a video projector?
Video projectors allow to project and view images or videos, in a size much larger than that of a television screen. They can be used both for entertainment purposes (home cinema, video games) and professionally for conferences and presentations. And in addition to these two, a third use appears: being able to transport it comfortably to enjoy it anywhere and in any situation.
Uses of projectors
The most important thing when choosing the best product for us is the use we will give it. Because depending on this, we will have to prioritize certain features or projector features compared to others. Luckily, we'll have this clear before you buy.
Below we show you the main uses that exist. And if you click on the titles you will access a complete selection of each category:
Home Theater Projectors
To take advantage of the home cinema with a much larger image than regular TVs while enjoying popcorn with our favorite movies or series.
Besides the projector resolution , which will largely determine the quality of the image, it is very important to have a native contrast adequate to enjoy the best cinematic experience.
Professional projectors
When projecting in very large venues such as auditoriums, classrooms or meeting rooms, it is essential to have of powerful projectors which guarantee sufficient brightness to counteract ambient light, project over a long distance without losing image quality and that participants at the end of the room can view the content correctly.
Therefore, in this type of device it is essential to use high brightness .
Projectors for presentations
To correctly project our PowerPoint presentations or similar programs, it is essential that our device has the appropriate brightness and resolution.
In addition, we must highly appreciate another series of extras such as being able to directly connect our memory USB , which includes Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to connect our computer wirelessly, or that the lamp lasts so long that we forget to replace it. this for a long time.
3D Projectors
To visualize correctly 3D content , it is important that the device has a refresh rate higher than usual, as these images require greater performance in this regard.
In addition, manufacturers have practically made Full HD resolution the standard on these models, precisely because of the requirements of this content.
Game projectors
In the case of using our device mainly for video games , we must first ensure that it has the best delay time or input lag possible. That is, the time required to transmit the image from the console to the projection.
A normal delay time might be around 30 milliseconds, but some models have reduced this feature to an impressive number of 14 milliseconds, so that we barely notice the delay between pressing a button and seeing the movement.
TV projectors
A very good option if we do not have a TV or tuner is to include DTT directly on our device to enjoy our favorite channels.
There are models that integrate a tuner and eliminate the need to connect it. And surprisingly, the price is not too high for this feature.
