Vividstorm VBMSLUST120H Projector Screen

No, this screen is specifically engineered for ultra-short throw (UST) laser projectors. The optical coating is designed to reflect light coming from below, so using a standard projector will result in a poor, uneven image.

The screen surface features a specialized micro-structure that absorbs light coming from above and the sides, while reflecting light from your projector directly toward your eyes. This significantly boosts contrast and color saturation in rooms with windows or overhead lighting.

While it is designed for versatility, the installation depends on your mounting choice. The unit is heavy due to the aluminum housing and motor, so if you are mounting it to a ceiling or wall, ensure you have the proper hardware and support for a secure fit.

Tab-tensioning uses side cords to pull the material taut, preventing the screen from curling or developing waves over time. This ensures the surface remains perfectly flat, which is critical for maintaining a sharp, distortion-free image from an ultra-short throw projector.

You have several options: the included IR and RF remotes, or the 12V trigger. The 12V trigger is particularly convenient because it automatically lowers the screen whenever you turn on your projector, and retracts it when you power down.

A gain of 0.6 is standard for ALR screens because it prioritizes contrast and black levels over raw brightness. Since UST projectors are typically very bright, this lower gain helps prevent the image from looking washed out in ambient light.
