Portable projectors are great for a variety of uses from delivering important presentations to large audiences to adding immersion to console gaming. If you’re looking for an affordable and portable mini projector that produces a massive picture, look no further. Read on to learn more about pico projectors.
What Are Portable Projectors?
A projector is a device that projects a digital image using a light source and a system of lenses. That image is thrown onto a screen and reflected off of it for comfortable group viewing for projecting slides or film onto a screen. Some modern projectors can project the image directly using lasers.
Pico portable projectors, also referred to as pocket projectors, are perfect for travel, on-the-go presentations, camping or displaying in smaller areas. Paired with home theater speaker systems, portable projectors create the perfect environment for visual and audio displays.
Why Choose a Mini Projector?
Pico projectors are best used on the go and paired with portable projector screens to share media with your audience. They’re usually small and can play media from most devices, like your smartphone, laptop or game console.
Miniature projectors are great due to their portable size and simplicity of use while still being capable of displaying sharp images over a large area.
How Large Are the Projections on Pocket Projectors?
The size of the projections largely depends on the size of your room and the type of portable projector you purchase. Most commonly, mini projectors can project up to 100-inches from an 8-feet 9-inches distance.
For larger projections, we suggest large venue projectors. These more powerful units are best used for larger audiences in conference and training rooms or small auditoriums.
What Features Should You Look for in a Miniature Projector?
The features you should look for depend on how you plan on using the projector. Besides their light and transportable nature, portable projector screens offer a variety of optional features that suit specific use cases.
- For smaller, on-the-go projections, we recommend the handheld projectors or the micro pico handheld projectors like the ViewSonic Portable M1 Mini Pico.
- For presentations or for multiple viewers, we recommend a pico projector with a slightly larger screen, like the ViewSonic M2 or Philips PicoPix Max.
Which Input Sources Work With Portable Projectors?
Check your portable projector’s product specifications to know what you need to connect. Many mini projectors boast mobile connectivity or Bluetooth, but some models may require USB cables, HDMI cables or other hardware and adapters.
