Panasonic VMZ51U Golf Simulator Projector

Any projector with a throw ratio that is equal to or less than this will work nicely. In this article, we only review short throw (or ultra short throw) projectors because they’re simply the best for golf simulators.

In general, you will want a projector that is 6 to 8 feet away from the screen. If you go any further back you will create shadows as your hit. Every projector has slightly different numbers and distances they can be.

Without a quality projector, you will not reap all the benefits available from a golf simulator. Sub-standard projectors produce low-quality images that can spoil the experience. Quality projectors will enable you to play some of the most renowned golf courses while displaying the intricacies in high definition.

A 16′ by 9′ screen is the ideal screen size for a golf simulator. The 16 feet in length provides the ideal aspect ratio of 16:9 and provides enough space to swing a golf club without fear or hitting a wall. This frees golfers up to play their best golf.

The minimum space required to set up most golf simulators is 10’W x 10’L x 8.5’H. Things like player height and arm length can factor into how much space is required. If you are a shorter player, then you might be able to get away with a slightly shorter ceiling.

Your projector is designed to be installed on a wall or ceiling (with the included mount). You can also place the projector on almost any flat surface (with the optional floor stand) to project an image in a portable setup, or on a lighting track (with the optional lighting track mount).

To build a golf simulator you need a space that measures 12 feet long, 10 feet wide and 9 feet high, larger rooms are always better. You need 15 feet of width to enjoy a centred aim. You may require more length, width or height depending on you, your launch monitor and your impact screen setup.

A 16:9 format screen is perfect for broadcast HDTV. It leaves you with small top and bottom black bars on movies that are wider than 16:9, and it requires you to make some compromises with 4:3 material. For most home theater enthusiasts, the visual impact of 16:9 widescreen outweighs issues related to 4:3 display.

The height you actually need depends on your height, the highest point of your swing, and your wariness of hitting the ceiling. The absolute lowest ceiling allowable for a golf simulator is 8.5 – 9ft, though most will need higher. A 10ft ceiling height allows a much more comfortable experience.

You should place the projector with the center of the lens 8“ above the top edge of the screen. It has an offset of about 21 percent. That is, it should be higher than the screen by .

Hello. Thank you for the inquiry. Yes this projector can do 16:10 ratio. Cheers. Bob Hathaway – Owner – Optical Resourc

Yes there are mounting holes for universal ceiling mount kits on the bottom of the projector. We used a Chief brand mount.

 It’s a wide screen projector so you’ll be limited by the width of your content. You’ll be able to get it 7 feet wide but it would only be about 4 feet tall. That throw distance seems like it should be no problem, pretty similar to the distance and size we use it.

Hello. Thank you for the question. For the Panasonic PT-VZ580U there are 2 HDMI Connections and the aspect ratio is 16:10 and throw ratio 1.09-1.71:1. Hope that helps. Cheers, Bob Hathaway – Optical Resourc
