\u201cRegular,\u201d \u201cShort Throw,\u201d \u201cUltra Short Throw\u201d are terms to define how far out from the screen the projector has to be to project a suitably clear image. The traditional projector is required to be positioned a considerable distance away from the screen. However, this led to concerns about shadows obstructing image from the screen, and the obvious fact that projectors could not be used in spaces where there is inadequate room.<\/p>\n
In the search for a solution to the limited-space problem, the manufacturers birthed the short throw projectors first, and after much improvement moved on to Ultra Short Throw projectors. In the table below, we compare projectors in the three throw distance groups.<\/p>\n
