Equipment
We have a common light projector to be shared by all named Homer
Sanyo the Magic Turtle
We have a massively huge Sanyo projector with 14,000 lumens!
It's a Sanyo Model # PLC-XF46N Chassis # KF6-XF46N01
Here are his stats: https://www.projectorcentral.com/Sanyo-PLC-XF46N.htm
The bulbs all work and it's relatively non problematic to hook up he usb-c to the VGA
- 12,000 ANSI Lumens <-- this is bright enough to light up a screen in daylight baby!
Fabian the Silver Screen
We have a silver screen that's great for projections named Fabian. According to Jake, Fabian is completely capable of receiving projections for 3D movies! Quite exciting. Fabian is usually folded up in a tripod in the upper loft of SudoRoom
Homer the light projector
Homer is a purple Benq PB8220 - in time we will be decorating him with a face, but he's still growing into his role. He comes in a carrying case and isn't bolted into place anywhere.
While Homer doesn't have any HDMI outlets, we do have an S-Video to HDMI connector so we can connect him to anything that works with HDMI (USB-C and lightning for example)
