Hey all - trying to figure out how to layout my simulator room that I'm going to get to work on in the next few months. I'm 99% sure I'm going with Protee Basepack 2.
One issue I'm having is that I feel like my projector (BenQ HT2150ST) is going to interfere with the Hcam.
For the width of my impact screen (160"), the projector would have to be between 110-137" from the screen. The problem is, at 110" and the width of the projector (11"), that would put you at 10' 1" from screen, which is only 7" in front of the Hcam at 10' 8". However, I was planning on dropping the projector down a few inches, so I think the Hcam will be blocked by the projector.
Alternatively, if I put the projector at the furthest back location, it would be at 137", or 11' 5". However, the back light is supposed to be 11' 3" from the screen, which is only 2" of separation, and from my understanding, the lights get pretty hot, and this could cause some damage to the projector.
So, my question is, should I:
1. Move my sensors and cameras back 6-12" to make space in between the front light and Hcam?
2. Move my sensors and cameras forward 6-12" to make space between back light and projector?
3. Get a new projector?
Also note that my room is only 20' deep from screen, so can't move the sensors too far back, as there won't be any seating space.
Really appreciate your thoughts on this!
Cheers!
