Why do you need a screen?
Wavy Image on the wall: you might notice the image is wavy because many walls are not flat, which human eyes can't detect. The ultra-short throw technology easily detects unevenness better than a traditional long throw projector as it projects from the bottom to the top. Using a screen will solve this issue.
Improved Projection Quality: Pairing with a good projector screen can improve your projection quality by up to 80%, The screen's gain function enhances the brightness and clarity of the picture.
Ambient Light Rejection: Using an ALR (Ambient Light Rejecting) screen allows you to use the UST projector in environments with ambient light, such as ceiling light and bright daylight - even in outdoor settings. It provides a clear and vivid image with contrast levels that are up to 100 times greater than projecting on a wall for premium color fidelity. Which makes it a suitable alternative to regular television.
