When hiring projectors, consider how large the projected image must be in order for the audience to see it clearly, and whether you want to have the lights on during projection for attendees to take notes. These factors will help determine the level of brightness required in a data projector.

When choosing the correct data projector for your event, one of the most important things to consider is room brightness. For bright & well lit rooms that are filled with sunlight, it is best to use a high brightness projector, however in darker rooms where the lights are dim and there is no sunlight you can get away with using a low brightness projector. 

When hiring a data projector, consider how large the projected image must be in order for the audience to see it clearly, and whether you want to have the lights on during projection for attendees to take notes. These factors will help determine the level of brightness required in a data projector.

Projector brightness is measured in ANSI lumens. Generally, projectors run between 3000 and 10000 lumens. If you are in a large conference room and you need an image bright enough to be seen from a distance without dimming the lights, you’ll need to hire a higher lumens since the light from your data projector disperses over distance.

HERE’S A GUIDE to data projector hire brightness

2000 – 3000 lumens :  works well with a tripod screen suitable for small rooms or low lit rooms with 10-20 people.

3000 – 4500 lumens: works well for a screen of about 6 – 8 foot (180 – 240cm) in medium-sized room with about 50 – 100 people and dim lighting.

7000 – 10000 lumens: best for larger screens of about 8 – 25 foot (240 cm – 762 cm) in large meeting rooms with regular lighting and 200 – 600 people in the audience.

Before booking a projector screen hire, ensure you speak to the venue where your event will be to check the ceiling height.
 
It is also a great idea to leave some clearance between the top of the screen and the ceiling to avoid touching things in the ceiling that might be in the way such as sprinklers and lights.

If you have an audience of 1-50 people, our 6ft or 8ft tripod screens are perfect for the job.
 
For audiences of 50-200 people, our 10ft x 7ft Fastfold screens will be more visible for people sitting further away from the screen.
 
Screen sizes from 12ft x 9ft and above may not fit inside some rooms, please check with your venue of choice before hiring anything of these sizes.
 
Generally, tripod screens suit small rooms with smaller audiences and Fastfold screens are perfect for those who are looking for a professional look as they come with a full black drape surround.  Setup alongside a black drapeline, fast fold screen hire is typically used at conferences, gala dinners or special events.

Understanding Resolution for Data Projectors

What does this mean exactly?

If your laptop is the latest HD (1920 x 1080) signal pushing to an older XGA (1024 x 768) data projector the image that it receives needs to be shrunk down so the information can output to the native resolution of the hired data projector.

However at Inhouse AV we stock all different resolutions including the lasted HD models to suit all sources.

When hiring a professional fast fold, you have the option to choose from front projection – where the projector is placed a few metres in front of the screen or rear projection where the projector is placed behind the screen. Why the two options?

Where space is limited, hiring a screen with rear projection is a great option as more delegates can utilise the seating directly in front of the projector rather than wasting space with a table for the projector to sit upon.

Both rear projection or front projection can be used with either a short throw data projector where the distance the projector sits to the screen is ‘short’ or minimal. If space is not an issue, a traditional long throw data projector can be hired, as this sits 3 to 4 metres in front of the screen.

For more advice on hiring a data projector in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane, call head office on 1300 669 235.

This is one of the most common questions we get about HD projector rental.  Understanding monitor formats and resolutions are important when choosing screen hire with a data projector, or plasma and lcd hire.

The resolution is measured on the number of pixels in the display, so for example 1280×720 represents 1280 pixels in height and 720 pixels in width or a total of 921,600 pixels. Generally the more pixels, the more expensive the display, because of the greater picture quality. FOr the many different options of Data Projector Hire, visit our Data Projector Product Page

Different Display Resolution of Projector Screens

Resolution in Plasmas, LCDs and LEDs

The video content you watch on TV, whether its regular programming, DVD, or HDTV, has its own resolution. So if you are watching a dvd in a lower pixel format such as 4:3, the plasmas native resolution is up converting the signal so it will display in its native format which is likely to be 1920 x 1080 for a HD monitor.  Almost all incoming signals to a plasma TV are either down-converted or up-converted depending on the source.

Projector Resolution

When hiring a data projector consider the resolution of the data projector as this can impact the quality of your presentation. Data projectors have either XGA (1024 x 768), WXGA ( 1280 x 800), or HD (1920 x 1080) resolutions which is a fixed resolution.  So regardless of the signal coming in e.g: from a laptop the hire data projector can only present in its native resolution.

What does this mean exactly?

If your laptop is the latest HD (1920 x 1080) signal pushing to an older XGA (1024 x 768) data projector the image that the data projector receives needs to be shrunk down so the information can output to the native resolution of the hired data projector.

Need to broadcast your ideas but not sure where to start? Inhouse Audiovisual has a variety of projector and screen rental options to suit every need. The two things to consider when thinking about an AV package are the size and brightness of your area. IHAV provides projector and screen hire in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, so whether your event is in regional Victoria or NSW, IHAV can deliver the event. Our technicians are also able to help cater to any size event, and can advise the most appropriate setup for your needs.

Event Size:
When selecting a projector screen, you need to take into account the size of your event, and remember that the larger the event, the larger your screen will need to be.
Intimate events and reduced spaces call for a tripod screen and 3000 lumens hire data projector. Additional to front projection, clients can request rear projection when space is limited. This option allows more room for seating, while maintaining  great presentation quality. Tripod projector screen hire is optimum for events of up to 100-120 people.
When working with a large space, consider hiring multiple screens for maximum visual impact. For larger auditorium spaces that command attention IHAV provides screens as large as 20X11 ft. To view the full range of projector screens available for hire,  click here.

Brightness:
A good rule when choosing a hire data projector is to remember that it will be competing with any natural light in the event space, so in order to produce a well-focused image, brighter rooms will require more powerful projection. In regular lighting conditions, consider a 4500 lumens projector. When working with areas flooded with light, a 7000 lumens projector will ensure your images and text stay sharp and crisp. for more information visit our hire data projector page.

We know you want the best Audio Visual solution possible for your clients, but we also know that rambling on about technology, resolutions, inputs etc aren’t really in your job description. That’s where we come in.  Simplifying AV, so you can sell it to your clients or better yet we can talk to them on your behalf so you can focus on the finer details of your events.

So lets discuss (without too much techy talk I promise!)

The Christie Projector is a high impact data projector used for large rooms. With 10,000 lumens projection and high definition, the Christie Projector conveys crystal clear graphics in large format screens. We have used this projector several times over the years on various scaled fast fold screens, each time without fail the content is crisp and colours super bright, all due to the 10000 to 1 contrast ratio.

Sydney Town Hall

Projecting on multiple screens with multiple projectors can be tricky without a quality projector. Done poorly, the display from multiple projectors will show a visible band where the projected images overlap. However with the Christie, a single display using multiple projectors produces large, bright, high-resolution images. Known as edge blending, the appearance of banding is eliminated and a single image is created across the screen.

And if that wasn’t enough reason to try the Christie Projector, the intelligent Lens System allow for zoom, focus, horizontal and vertical offset so presentations are only limited by your imagination. There is no need to limit your creativity with projecting on fastfold screens when the data projector works on any projection surface including  curves and exterior walls.

Working with Christie Projectors for years and in particular the Christie HD DLP 10000 lumens Projector we can confidently recommend it for its limitless capabilities and superior reliability.

Inhouse Audio Visual go above and beyond for each of our clients, supporting individual event needs from the ground up and acting as an extension to your team rather than just another provider.

The Town Hall in Sydney is a large venue that can comfortably seat up to 800 people for dinner, 1,500 for cocktail events and 2,000 people seated theatre-style. A ceiling height of 20 metres enhances audio-visual presentations.

Many of our clients have held events such as Awards Nights, Corporate events and Gala Dinners where they have contracted Inhouse Audio Visual to provide the AV setup.

Creating amazing ambiance at the Town hall isn’t difficult with the ornate ceilings and Inhouse Audio Visual have worked with our clients to fulfill the event briefs, working with PCOs to create the look and feel for each event whilst also considering budget restraints.

Inhouse Audio Visual rigged the projectors and screens for this event. We provided a full AV setup including vision mixing equipment, PA Hire and content production.  Our skilled technicians ran the event from the Ops desk and it was a successful result for our very happy client.

When selecting a projector screen, you need to take into account the size of your event, and remember that the larger the event, the larger your screen will need to be.
Intimate events and small spaces call for a tripod screen and 3000 lumens data projector. Additional to front projection, clients can opt for rear projection when space is tight.

Brightness:
A good rule of thumb when selecting a data projector is to remember that it will be competing with any natural light in the event space, so in order to produce a well-focussed image, brighter rooms will require more powerful projection. In regular lighting conditions, consider a 4500 lumens projector. When working with highly lit areas a 7000 lumens projector will ensure your images and text stay sharp and crisp. A full list of our data projectors can be found here.
