Art and entertainment projectors are used in museums and galleries for digital art, video installations, digital gaming experiences and interactive exhibits. They are also common in immersive art exhibitions where multiple projectors create large-scale environments, often with music and sound. Historic sites and monuments use projection for historical recreations, bringing stories to life in their original locations. Theatres, concert venues, theme parks and public events also rely on these projectors for projection mapping and visually engaging displays.

These projectors can display static images, digital paintings and high-resolution photography. They are ideal for video art and animations, including time-lapse sequences and motion graphics. Generative art created by computer algorithms can be projected in real time for dynamic experiences. Projectors can also transform complex data into visualisations and create dramatic light and shadow effects to alter the atmosphere of a space.

Projectors for immersive environments need high brightness to keep images vivid and clear, and high resolution for sharp detail without pixelation. High contrast is important for impactful visuals, and accurate colour reproduction ensures realism. Short-throw capability helps create large images in limited spaces, while reliability minimises downtime. Features such as flexible installation and laser light sources support long-term performance.
