Golf Simulator Projectors

Important:

If you don't have sufficient ceiling height for a medium to long throw projector,

then your head and/or body will block or interfere with the projected image.

In this case, use a short throw projector that can be mounted ahead of the player,

i.e. around 7 to 8ft from the screen

instead of 14ft plus from the screen

Recommended bright short throw golf simulator projectors

Short throw projectors are mounted 6 to 7.5 ft from the screen

Available on Amazon for around $900

Hi-end Laser short throw projector

Purchase on Amazon

Don't forget to order the projector ceiling mount too

Recommended medium throw distance projector

Medium throw projectors are mounted 13 to 22 ft from the screen

How to calculate the distance your projector should be mounted from the screen

Projectors have a so called "Throw Distance ratio" rating

and you can use this to calculate the distance the projector is to be mounted from the screen in order to fill the screen with the projected image.

The basic formula is:

Throw distance ratio X width of screen in inches = distance from screen to projector lens

Examples:

The Optoma EH200ST short throw projector has a "Throw Distance ratio" of 0.5:1

If your screen is 12ft wide (=144 inches) then the distance the projector should be mounted is:

0.5 X 144 = 72 inches or 6ft

If your screen is 15ft wide (=180 inches) then the distance the projector should be mounted is:

0.5 X 180 = 90 inches or 7.5 ft

The ViewSonic medium throw projector has a "Throw Distance ratio" of 1.15:1 to 1.5:1

If your screen is 12ft wide (=144 inches) then the distance the projector should be mounted is:

1.15 X 144 = 165 inches or 13.8ft / or 1.5 X 144 = 216 inches or 18ft

If your screen is 15ft wide (=180 inches) then the distance the projector should be mounted is:

1.15 X 180 = 207 inches or 17.25ft / or 1.5 X 180 = 270 inches or 22 ft

Aspect ratios

Most projectors can do at least 16:9 aspect ratios these days

Screen size chart

Use this screen size calculator to calculate your desired screen size

Using 3 projectors a super curved wide screen can be obtained

Multiple screens

HD Resolution

HD 1920 x 1080 resolution meets most peoples demands for golf simulators

Ultra HD Resolution

If higher resolution is desired then a 4K projector would be required

4K Ultra HD projectors have a resolution of 3840 pixels × 2160 lines (8.3 megapixels, aspect ratio 16:9)

Purchase on Amazon

There are two types of 4K projectors available : Native 4K and 4K Enhanced

4K Enhanced projectors like the above Epson 5050UB are quite a bit more expensive than the standard HD projectors but still relatively affordable

True native 4K projectors

True native 4K projectors are very expensive

The above is the budget model from Sony with just 1500 Lumens

3000 Lumens Native 4K projectors cost serious money

"I particularly like the free shipping deal on the above projector from Amazon. I'm almost sold"

4k

Both E6 and TGC software run at 4K levels

HDMI cables and splitter boxes

Most PC graphics cards will only have 1 HDMI output connector so you'll have to add an HDMI 1 in : 2 out splitter box in order to run both the PC monitor and the projector

Available on Amazon for around $20

You'll also need two HDMI cables. 1 short one to feed to PC monitor and 1 long one to feed the projector

Also available on Amazon for around $20

Connecting the projector to the PC

Note that the video shows a VGA cable connection but you will be using an HDMI cable.
