1080P Short-Throw Laser Projector Built for golf simulator bays

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.

Bright 1080P Laser Engine for Sim Bays

Built on BenQ’s golf-first platform, the AH700ST delivers bright, accurate visuals tuned for simulator play.

  • Resolution: Full HD 1080P (1920×1080) for sharp sim UI and ball flight data
  • Brightness: 4,000 ANSI lumens for clear images in garages and bonus rooms
  • Contrast: Up to 3,000,000:1 dynamic contrast for punchy whites and deep shadows
  • Laser light source: Up to ~20,000-hour life for low-maintenance operation
  • Color: ~95% Rec.709 coverage for natural, believable course color

Short-Throw, Low-Offset Golf Design

The AH700ST’s optics are tuned for golf simulator layouts where safety and shadow reduction matter.

  • Throw ratio: 0.69–0.83:1 — big image from a short distance
  • Projection offset: ~102.5% for a low, sim-friendly image height
  • Zoom: 1.2× optical zoom to fine-tune screen fill without moving the mount
  • Placement: Optimized to sit behind and above the golfer to reduce shadows and shank risk

Auto Screen Fit & Quick Focus

One of the AH700ST’s biggest advantages is how quickly it dials in your impact screen.

  • Auto Screen Fit: One-button setup that detects and fills your impact screen border
  • Aspect support: 16:9, 16:10, 4:3, and 1:1 while maintaining optimal resolution
  • Quick Focus: Remote-based focus adjustment from the hitting area—no ladder needed
  • Screen size: Up to roughly 200" diagonal (sim/layout dependent)

Golf Mode, HDR & Sim-Ready Performance

Color, contrast, and responsiveness are tuned to make modern sim software look and feel right.

  • BenQ Golf Mode: Realistic turf, sand, and sky tones on popular sim platforms
  • HDR: HDR10 / HLG support for deeper contrast and more dynamic visuals
  • Input lag: ~16 ms at 1080p/60 (Game Mode) for responsive feedback
  • Versatility: Great choice if you use your bay for golf, sports, and console/PC gaming

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
  • Reliability: “Set it and forget it” performance for frequent sim sessions
