120" Diagonal ALR Ultra Short Throw Projector Screens
120″ Screen Viewing Distance: The recommended viewing distance range from screen surface to eyes while seated for a 120-inch diagonal 16:9 aspect ratio projection screen is from 12 feet (144 inches) to 18 feet (216 inches), from most immersive to least immersive.
120″ Image Width and Height: The rectangular dimensions for an exactly 120-inch diagonal 16:9 aspect ratio projected image onto a perfectly-flat, vertical wall are about 104.6 inches wide by 58.8 inches high. That is about 9% larger than the next smaller size 115 inch screen.
AWOL Vision, Casiris, SCREENPRO, Silver Ticket Products, Spectra Projection, VIVIDSTORM, XY Screens, and Phoenix Projectors AV each offer tensioned wall-mount, fixed-frame 120″ diagonal ALR (Ambient Light Rejecting) projection screens which must be properly assembled, aligned with UST projector image, and permanently hung from the wall. Next, AWOL Vision, SCREENPRO, VIVIDSTORM, and Phoenix Projectors AV offer plug-and-play electric motorized free-standing floor-rising 120″ diagonal ALR projection screens which rise/lower at the push of a button, and are the easiest to set up and use with UST projectors sitting on the floor. Lastly, VIVIDSTORM offers tab-tensioned electric motorized wall/ceiling-mount drop-down 120″ diagonal ALR screens that also lower/rise at the push of a button, which must also be properly aligned with the UST projector’s image and mounted from the wall/ceiling. Any of these ALR screens will produce contrast levels far superior to standard matte white screens when used together with an ultra short throw projector, even more so inside a light-controlled or darkened room.
