Epson EB-685W for projection mapping
Ultra short throw: a big image from under a metre away. Ideal for shop windows and tight rooms. Ultra short throw: a 2.8 m wide image from about 80 cm. Useful when the projector has to sit right next to the surface — shop windows, tables, flat walls in tight rooms. The steep projection angle makes it a poor fit for deep 3D objects: shadows appear as soon as something sticks out.
