The brightest projector we list: 9,800 lumens and 8,200 ANSI, WUXGA, a motorized 1.15x zoom (0.65–0.75 throw), motorized lens shift of ±55% vertical and ±25% horizontal around a centred image, and a DuraCore laser rated 30,000 hours. A 100-inch 16:10 image sits about 4.6 to 5.3 ft from the screen, from the ratio. With its lens the cabinet is 19.13 x 16.83 x 7.3 in. At $9,999 it is built for venue-sized screens and lit rooms. A home simulator rarely needs this much light, and the same money buys a 4K projector and most of the rest of a build.

Room planner
See the Optoma ZU920TST in your sim room.
The planner draws it to scale with your room and your screen: where it mounts, how far the lens sits from the screen, and whether your swing or your shadow crosses the light. It opens in a sample room; put in yours.
