Find the Right Projector for Your Space
Enter your projection distance, desired image size, installation environment, and ambient light level to get a recommended projector and lens.
Your Project
Tell us a few details about your installation.
Projection Distance
Measure the distance from the projector lens to the projection surface.
Example: If the projector will be installed 6 meters from the wall, enter 6 m.
Desired Image Diameter
How large do you want the projected logo or image to be?
Installation Environment
Ambient Light
Choose the lighting condition closest to your installation.
Recommendations are intended as a practical selection guide. Actual projection brightness and appearance may vary depending on ambient light, projection surface, artwork, installation angle, and site conditions.
How Lens Ratio Works
Lens ratio determines the approximate diameter of the projected image at a given projection distance.
At a projection distance of 6 meters, a 1:0.5 lens produces an image approximately 3 meters in diameter.
Lens Options by Projector
Available lens options vary by projector model. Use this table to check which lenses are supported by each Gobosolution projector.
| Projector | Available Lens Ratios |
|---|---|
| 35W Indoor | 1:0.36 / 1:0.5 |
| 50W Indoor | 1:0.36 / 1:0.5 |
| 60W Outdoor | 1:0.36 / 1:0.5 |
| 80W Outdoor | 1:0.36 / 1:0.5 / 1:0.8 / 1:1 |
| 100W Outdoor | 1:0.36 / 1:0.5 / 1:0.8 / 1:1 |
| 160W High-Power | 1:0.3 / 1:0.5 / 1:1 |
| 200W High-Power | 1:0.3 / 1:0.5 / 1:1 |
| 300W High-Power | 1:0.3 / 1:0.5 / 1:1 |
How Projector Wattage Is Selected
Projector wattage is primarily selected based on projection distance and ambient light conditions.
Projection Distance
Longer projection distances generally require higher output to maintain a clear and visible projected image.
Ambient Light
Brighter surroundings require more projector output to maintain image visibility and contrast.
Recommended Wattage
The Finder combines distance and ambient light to determine the minimum practical projector wattage.
Wattage by Distance & Ambient Light
Use this chart as a practical reference. The Projector Finder automatically maps these requirements to the closest suitable Gobosolution model.
| Projection Distance | Dark | Slightly Dark | Bright |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 2 m | 20W | 30W | 40W |
| 2–3 m | 30W | 40W | 50W |
| 3–4 m | 40W | 50W | 90W |
| 4–6 m | 50W | 90W | 100W |
| 6–8 m | 90W | 100W | 160W |
| 8–10 m | 100W | 160W | 200W |
| 10–15 m | 160W | 200W | 300W |
| 15–20 m | 200W | 300W | Project Review |
| 20–30 m | 300W | Project Review | Project Review |
Slightly Dark: some surrounding commercial or decorative lighting.
Bright: significant surrounding or indoor lighting.
