PK TV grab the living room home projection pie why not open?

1. The price is not a problem

Many people are familiar with projectors in classrooms and conference rooms. In fact, education and business are the largest market for projectors. The projector industry has always been trying to enter the home sector, but the home market has not been able to occupy a large share in the projector field. In the past, projectors were expensive and could not be accepted by home users. Therefore, projectors would need to face price problems when they wanted to popularize homes. So is it right? The problem of price is solved, can really let the projector become the new choice of family user? Today we will analyze this issue.

PK TV grab the living room home projection pie why not open?

Today, the equipment used to occupy the living room is mainly LCD TVs. Recently, LeTV launched a nearly 500,000 yuan LCD TV, the size is indeed large enough, but the price is also staggering. However, in fact, the price of popular LCD TVs is now very favorable. Under the impact of internet companies in recent years, the price of LCD TVs has been falling particularly fast. Today, a 55-inch LCD TV often sells only 3,500 yuan on the Internet, and it still has an intelligent system. In particular, we can see how much the price of TV is discounted.


Home projectors have not been universal

3500 yuan price for the projector market, what kind of products can be purchased? Professional highlight projectors don't want to think about it. Such a price can generally buy a XGA (1024×768) resolution business or education projector. Their brightness is generally between 3,000 and 4,000 lumens. This configuration is an entry-level level in the field of projectors. From the comparison we can see that the price of the projector is still more expensive.


The price of 1080P home projector slides quickly

However, after all, the projector can achieve a larger size, and it is worth mentioning that the price of home projectors has been reduced, the price of home projectors in the past 1080P is generally more than 10,000 yuan, through the development of the two years, in The price of around 5,000 yuan is also a home projector with 1080P resolution. In this kind of product, casting a 120-inch screen in the right environment is still a little stressful. However, such home projectors are also sold flat, I believe that even if prices continue to decline, the user's stimulus is not great.

2. There is not enough room for change

In fact, in addition to the price issue, the projector needs a lot of space, which is also a very problematic headache. We know that with the continuous rise in housing prices, many families have chosen to purchase Xiaoping’s homes. Using a projector in such a room naturally has a lot of inconvenience. In general, if a projector is to achieve a large size, at least a distance of three or four meters is required. For Xiao Xiaoping, this is a bit extravagant.


Traditional lifting requires many modifications

And if the projector is used for hoisting, early planning is also required. If it is a newly-renovated home, the user can plan well before the installation and it is not particularly troublesome to install it. However, if it is a late home improvement, it is necessary to consider many issues. Problems such as alignment, power consumption, aesthetic issues, etc., make many people prohibitive.


Reflective ultra-short throw projector can save a lot of space

In order to solve these problems, there are new solutions in the industry. That is the appearance of ultra-short focal reflection projectors, which can solve the projector's distance problem. Place the projector on the desk or hang it on top of the screen to achieve a large screen shot. The reason why this effect can be achieved is that the projector lens adopts short focus, and the principle of reflection is used to greatly shorten the distance. However, the disadvantage of this is that the projection screen is prone to distortion. The so-called "projection TV" is actually such a product. However, this product has not yet become mainstream.

3. The brightness problem depends on the laser

To solve the problem of distance, in fact, the projector brightness problem is also a big challenge, we know that the projector is very sensitive to brightness. For the average user's home, the darkroom is not very existent, and it is very expensive to create a special dark room, and such a dark room has a single function, and can only be used to view the projector. Then only local tyrants can do this. . There are indeed many people who have built garage theaters and spent more than 100,000 yuan to upgrade. However, this is not something that the average person can afford.


Laser Projector System

The mainstream light source of projectors is still ultra-high-pressure halogen lamps. This kind of light not only generates heat, is fragile, but also consumes a lot of energy. Therefore, the sound of the light source has been eliminated. But there is no way that other light source technologies are still not very mature. For example, lasers are indeed very powerful in brightness, and even more than 30,000 lumens can be achieved in the commercial sector. However, their own volume is indeed too large.


High brightness requires laser array

To achieve such a high brightness, an array of lasers is needed to support it. The size of this laser array is too large, almost the same size as double-door refrigerators, and its energy consumption is ridiculously high, so ordinary homes cannot currently use such arrays. Of course, there are also projectors with pure lasers, but their brightness is similar to that of traditional high-pressure lamps, so there is no way to truly solve the problem of brightness.

4. LED light source is also blocked

Lasers cannot solve the brightness problem of ordinary users, so many people think of LED light sources. This semiconductor-based light source does have its own advantages. LED light source has the characteristics of low energy consumption, long life and small size. Therefore, the use of LED light sources to produce projectors has long been an attempt, and the industry is also introducing a lot of professional products. That is the micro-projector that is often advertised in the market.


LED pico projector advantage is small

This LED light source micro projector has a very small size. If it is well-made, it can fit into a pocket, and the overall size is comparable to that of an ipad mini. Its energy consumption is very low. Although it is a bit higher than LCD TVs, it is not unacceptable. And this light source can be used for a long time, tens of thousands of hours of life can meet the needs of users, compared to thousands of hours of traditional ultra-high pressure lamp life, LED micro projector is definitely a longevity.


LED light source brightness is more problem

However, the biggest problem of LED pico projectors is brightness. To achieve high brightness, you need to use a large number of LED light sources. Even if the brightness of a typical commercial projector is achieved, the size of LED light sources is very large, even if compared to Ordinary projectors, their advantages in terms of volume are also vanished. And a large number of LED light sources also have high energy consumption, and the problem of heat dissipation is also very serious. In addition to the problem of cost, it can be said that there is basically no economic advantage to achieving high brightness with LEDs. Therefore, the brightness of the current LED pico projector is basically maintained at 1000 lumens.


5. Noise issues need to be considered

The problem of the final noise can not but not be considered, because the projector needs heat, so the fan inside the projector has a dedicated user heat. Friends of their own DIY over the host know that this cooling fan sound is not small, obvious noise for users to watch the projection screen will also cause a lot of impact. This seemingly innocuous question, in fact, in daily use, it is precisely the user is very upset.


Fan noise can not be ignored

I have tried a home micro-projector, its brightness, picture color, and volume can be said to optimize the current high level, and even its internal intelligent system design, the effect is commendable. But when the author used it at night, the noise of this projector has always kept you from focusing on the movie. For home users, the elderly, children, and young people have their own tolerance for noise. Therefore, the problem of noise is actually a big problem.


The details just make users more irritated


Full text summary:

Projector manufacturers have always wanted to open the home market, the industry has been saying that home projectors will usher in the dawn before the outbreak, but after years of development, the home projector market has been tepid. In my opinion, the home projector market will never have a skyrocketing day. It will only be a small part of the choice. Too many problems make ordinary users unable to say love for home projectors. What we need to note is that the enjoyment of super-large screens can now be experienced at movie theaters. With the continuous development of the Chinese movie industry, the price of movie tickets will continue to decline in the future. This kind of cheap entertainment is the real focus in the future. . In the family, everyone just needs a peace of mind, enough big screen equipment is enough. For this, LCD display is undoubtedly the most suitable. The pie in the home projector market will never be too big.
