Projector Tools

Focus, color, geometry, contrast and convergence patterns. Control from your phone via QR code.

Find the right placement for any projector. Works with raw throw ratio — no model lookup required.

Diagonal to width × height for any aspect ratio, plus optimal viewing distance per THX (36°) and SMPTE (30°).

Five focus patterns to lock perfect sharpness on any projector. Fullscreen, keyboard and swipe nav.

Adjustable fullscreen grid with edge markers for keystone, lens shift and geometry calibration.

Get the recommended ANSI lumens for your screen size, room lighting and content type (SDR/HDR).

Eight calibration points from warm 2700K tungsten through D65 daylight to 9300K cool. Fullscreen with keyboard nav.

Side-by-side gamma reference patterns for 1.8, 2.2, 2.4 and BT.1886. The 1px-stripe half should blend with the reference gray at correct gamma.

Tell us your budget, room and use case. Get a clear recommendation with a side-by-side comparison.

Resolution-aware calculator. Tells you minimum, optimal and maximum seating distance for your screen — 4K lets you sit closer than 1080p.

Synchronized flash + click. Record on your phone, count frames between flash and audio peak, multiply by 16.7 ms.

Pick a duration, press Start. Huge digits fill the projector — readable from anywhere in the room. Beeps at countdown < 10 s and at zero.

Top-down diagrams for each system. Shows correct angles per Dolby/THX standards: front 30°, surround 90–110°, rear 150°, height ±45° elevation.

Auto-cycles color fields, gradients and motion patterns for the duration you set. Helps equalise panels on a new LCD or DLP projector.

Total cost of ownership over the period you choose: purchase + replacement lamps + electricity. Reveals whether a lamp or laser projector saves money for your usage.

Point your phone camera at the projected image. Get live RGB histogram, white balance check, 9-zone uniformity score, and clipping detection.

Five test patterns for 3D projector calibration: anaglyph, L/R separation, depth, crosstalk, convergence. Wear your 3D glasses (red-cyan or active shutter).

Soft-edge gradient overlap pattern for multi-projector setups. Adjustable overlap percentage, gamma-correct ramp, four edges.

Calculates LED strip length, recommended brightness, and the right color temperature for the bias light behind your screen.

Specifies the right gray paint (Behr or Sherwin-Williams) for your room lighting and calculates how much paint, primer and pearl additive you need.

PQ-encoded test patterns for HDR projectors: nit-step ramp, clipping check at 800–1500 nits, near-black detail, peak-white reference, Rec.709 vs Rec.2020 gamut comparison.

Microphone-based sound-level meter with A-weighting. Place phone 1 m from projector, press Start, get peak/avg/min readings.
