Ultra Short Throw ALR (Ambient Light Rejecting) Screens
Sure, you could project directly onto a large, perfectly flat white wall or even a “conventional” matte white projection screen, but an Ambient Light Rejecting (ALR) 16:9 projection screen designed specifically for ultra short throw laser projectors is a must to get the maximum picture quality possible from any UST projector, even more so for daytime viewing and/or in rooms with windows. Unless stated otherwise, assume that assembly is required, as well as proper wall-mounting and alignment with image from UST projector.
