Projector Selection Calculator

Grant's Perspective on ... choosing the right projector.

Many of our clients ask me what the best projector is. The answer usually starts off with "that depends on what you need." With so many different types of projectors and options to choose from where do you start? The first step is to understand and define your requirements.

Digital Projection, one of the projector manufacturers represented at Inland AV, has posted the Projector Toolbox to help people understand what their specifications should be.

The great thing about this calculator is it is very easy to use. Choose the application for the projector such as Corporate Boardroom, Education: K-12, Small Home Theatre, etc. You then choose an ambient room brightness. You do not need any technical expertise as they use plain language examples. You are then asked about the screen size and format that you want and the Digital Projection recommendations are delivered.


The recommended projectors are naturally Digital Projection products but the results include the general specifications that you should be looking for.

This is a great tool and available to anyone with no registration required.
