I knew nothing about projectors prior to starting my first simulator build, which is nearing completion. That being said, I apologize if this is a dumb question (still learning)...
I would like a short throw (or ultra short throw) projector to place on the floor in front of my mat. But in looking at projectors, I'm having a hard time determining which ones can be used on the floor and which ones can't.
I bought a used short throw projector off ebay. However, after receiving it and fiddling around with it, it clearly has to be mounted on the ceiling or placed on a table. When placed on the floor, the image does not project upwards (unless I tilt the projector up toward the ceiling, and then the image looks like a trapezoid on the screen). So I'll need to ditch this one and try again.
How do I determine which projectors can be used on the floor and which ones can't? I must be missing something in the product descriptions that indicates that. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
