Formulas
Units: Inches (for millimeters multiply final number by 25.4)
D = Screen Diagonal (4:3)
H = D x 0.8 H = Screen Width (4:3)
V = D x 0.6 V = Screen Height (4:3)
B = 0.5222H B = Vertical distance between lens center and screen center
C = 1.696H – 0.1344 C = Throw distance
D = 0.1472H D = Vertical distance between lens center and top of screen (bottom of screen for
desktop application)
-1
α = tan
(B / C) α = Throw angle
