Plan and Setup Your Video Game Room in 3 Steps

1.

Understand Your Room’s Layout and Lighting Conditions

Since rooms come in all shapes and sizes, the first thing you have to do is evaluate which wall you will be projecting on. This means that you will have to find out whether the wall will fit the screen size you want. You should also evaluate the ambient light in the room, which will determine projector brightness capability to offer the best performance.

Place your projector and consoles just right

Next, you need to decide where you want to place your projector in relation to the screen. This will help you further pinpoint the right projector choice by focusing on the projector’s throw ratio and offset.
