The global ultra-short throw projector market size was USD 1616.5 million in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 8745 million in 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 27.3% during the forecast period.

An ultra-short throw projector is an electrical, optical device that "throws" an image onto a screen from a very short distance using special wide-angle lenses and mirrors. Most conventional throw projectors need one inch of distance from the projected area for every inch of diagonal screen resolution. Closer to wall projectors from UST can be put just below and close up to the video screen, offering the magnificence of a huge screen in a much smaller space. Laser TVs, ultra-short throw televisions, and laser projector TVs are all terms used to describe USTs projectors.

Ultra-short throw projector lenses are used to create larger projected pictures at a reduced throw distance. The projector can be placed a few inches away from the wall while viewing a movie; instead of placing it from a few feet, which, in turn, may boost convenience. Its ability to be simply mounted on a cabinet near the screen boosts installation convenience. An ultra short throw projector reduces shadows and boosts the viewing experience, thereby increasing its adoption. These projectors are universally compatible, allowing you to link them to cellphones, laptops, and gaming consoles to provide you with entertainment on a whole new level. These factors are likely to propel the growth of the ultra-short throw projector market. 

COVID-19 Impact: Semiconductor Chipset Shortage and Lockdown Restrictions to Impede Market Progress

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected several markets globally. This ultra-short throw projector market is expected to be negatively affected during the COVID-19 pandemic. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the ultra-short throw projector market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over. 

The COVID-19 pandemic is negatively impacting the electronics Industry. Dependence on supply changes and the availability of crucial components are anticipated to hamper market expansion. Due to enforced lockdowns and imposed limits by separate regulatory bodies in the wake of the recent COVID-19 outbreak, numerous industries’ have either been temporarily halted or are operating with reduced personnel. This aspect is expected to have a substantial negative impact on the industry's revenue growth. Furthermore, these machines' high installation and maintenance costs may limit the market's revenue growth throughout the forecast period.

LATEST TRENDS

"Technological Advancements to Foster Market Growth"

Advances in electronics and environmentally friendly products have given top manufacturers of static projectors a competitive advantage. Therefore, manufacturers have broadened their product portfolio with hybrid lamps to lower the product's overall cost. The whole market value has increased as technology has improved from LCDs to DLPs. In the foreseeable future, gradually increasing technological developments in projector bulbs are projected to increase demand. Leading projector light manufacturers are devoting significant efforts to the research and development of new products. Projector bulbs have experienced gradual developments in light source technology, with the primary goal of each development being to improve the consumer experience. A new technique called laser light source with light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation was invented a few years ago and is extensively used by several projector lamp manufacturers. These factors can influence the growth of the ultra-short throw projector market during the upcoming years.

• By Type Analysis

By type, the market is segmented into 4k, 1080p, SD and others.

4k is the leading segment because of its adoption in the theaters. The projection has 4k, ultra-throw, and laser technology and is used in several home appliances because of its size, low energy consumption, and laser technology. These factors are likely to boost the ultra-short throw projector's market progress. 

• By Application Analysis

Based on applications, the market is classified into education, business, residential, and others.

The education segment is expected to hold the largest market share as it lowers shadows and eliminates glare from the light source due to its proximity to the screen. It ensures that students can focus and interact with the teacher when the projector is turned on, which, in turn, may facilitate industry progress. 

DRIVING FACTORS

"Increasing Popularity Regarding the compatibility features to Foster Market Growth"

An ultra-short throw projector performs best when used with a UST-compatible screen. These extremely short throw screens reject light from other sources, which allows the light from an ultra-short focus projector's sharp angle to reflect outwards to the spectator and not bounce off the ceiling or walls, adding to the room's ambient light level. Laser TV projectors can sit immediately beneath the display due to their sophisticated wide-angle lens and cutting-edge technology. These units are great for your living room or apartment because of their small throw distance. The UST frequently sits near a receiver and other components, thereby reducing installation complexity. This factor eliminates need to build an outlet near a traditional projector’s location. In addition, it eliminates long runs of HDMI cables from a source to the projector.

"Advanced Features to Boost Market Growth"

The amount of light produced by an ultra-short throw projector isn't as significant in a windowless theatre room, but it still affects the picture quality. Even with televisions, a brighter TV often produces a more vibrant picture. On a projector, brightness is measured in lumens, and its size varies depending upon the lumen number. Lumens is a broad term for light output; however, ANSI Lumens is the most accurate term for video projectors (ANSI stands for America National Standards Institute). The quantity of light reflected from a one square meter region that is one meter away from a one candela light source is measured in lumens. Manufacturers incorporate advanced lumen strengths in their projector to boost the viewing experience. For example, the TK700STi has a projection of 3000 lumens, which is roughly similar to 800 nits. It outperforms most TVs in the same price range in terms of long-term HDR performance and provides excellent brightness for gaming and movies to be in good viewing conditions. These factors are likely to drive the ultra-short throw projector market growth.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"High Installation Costs and Lack of Versatility of Product to Hamper Growth "

The lack of shadow projections, louder fan noise and lack of zoom functionality may restrain the product’s sales. In addition, higher installation costs associated with the may necessitate some offset, resulting in less point-and-shoot than with a traditional projector.
