BENQ AK800ST SHORT THROW LASER GOLF PROJECTOR - 5000 LUMENS

*New Product: October 2026

• World's First AI Golf Projector: AI Sim Sense visuals and setup.
• Hybrid Room Setup: 4K 5000lm with Golf Mode color and effortless setup.
• Auto Screen Fit 2.0: One-press curved and flat screen alignment.

The BenQ AK800ST is a premium 4K short-throw laser projector designed specifically for golf simulators. With 5,000 ANSI lumens, true 4K UHD resolution and golf-focused image processing, it delivers a bright, detailed image that brings virtual courses to life.

BenQ’s AI Sim Sense technology analyzes and enhances golf simulator content in real time. AI-enhanced contrast, super resolution and noise reduction improve turf textures, course details and overall image clarity.

The AK800ST also simplifies setup with Auto Golf Screen Fit 2.0, motorized autofocus and automatic ambient-light adjustment. Its built-in camera detects the shape and dimensions of the impact screen—including flat and curved screens—and adjusts the projected image for a clean, properly fitted result.

The 0.69–0.83 short-throw ratio allows the projector to produce a large image from a relatively short mounting distance, helping reduce golfer shadows while providing greater installation flexibility.

Beyond golf, the AK800ST supports HDR entertainment, low-latency gaming and high-speed sports content—making it a strong choice for multipurpose simulator and entertainment rooms.
