Owing to issues with the resolving power of lenses and the relatively high cost of short-throw projectors, short-throw projection technology has not played a significant role in the video-centric home projector market. However, as the projector market becomes ever more segmented, this stalemate has been broken. Recently, BenQ—the world’s leading DLP projector brand—has introduced a series of short-throw projector models for the home and individual-user entertainment market. The MS616ST, W770ST, and W1080ST support SVGA, 720p, and 1080p resolutions, respectively targeting the entry-level, mainstream price/performance, and high-end segments, making it easy for consumers to select the right model for their budgets.
