Short Throws, Long On Effect
Short Throws, Long On Effect
Earlier this month, NEC Display debuted two new portable short-throw projectors, the NP500WS and NP600S (pictured). Both are designed to address short-throw distance needs in education settings, SMBs and corporate conference rooms and training facilities.

"The main feedback you hear typically in the education market is the fact that most people are going to whiteboards -- either interactive or on the wall to begin with," said Rich McPherson, NEC Display's product manager. "What typically happens in that application, with a normal front-projection system, is that it's either blocking some of the image with the shadow or in some cases the light coming from the projector is more or less in the presenter's eyes."

Both the NP500WS and NP600S create a 77-inch diagonal image, yet are mounted only 46 inches (or just shy of four feet) from the wall.
