BenQ AH700ST: Ultimate Short Throw Golf Simulator Projector
By BenQ
BenQ AH700ST 4000-Lumen Short-Throw 1080P Laser Golf Simulator Projector
The BenQ AH700ST is a purpose-built 1080P short-throw laser golf simulator projector designed for fast setup, bright visuals, and safe placement. With 4,000 ANSI lumens, Full HD (1920×1080) resolution, and a golf-tuned short-throw lens, it fills your impact screen with a clean, punchy image that holds up in typical garage and sim-room lighting.
One-button Auto Screen Fit and Quick Focus handle image sizing and sharpness from the remote. A 0.69–0.83:1 short-throw ratio and low ~102.5% offset help you mount the projector above and behind the hitting area—out of the swing path and away from pop-up shots. Add a laser light source rated up to ~20,000 hours and an IP5X dustproof sealed engine, and you’ve got a true “set it and forget it” 1080p golf projector for serious sim bays.

Garage-Ready Durability
Built to live where your simulator lives—often a garage, basement, or flex space.
- IP5X dustproof sealed engine helps protect optics from dust and debris
- Operating range: Rated for typical garage-style temperatures (approx. 32–104°F)
- Low maintenance: No traditional lamps or filters to replace thanks to the laser design
