Portable Projector for Your Camping Trips
By XGIMI Tech - 2022-02
The typical camping trip is a whole lot of fun—you get to bond with the environment, away from the hustle and bustle of life. You are out in the woods with your family, and for once, you can enjoy the bliss that comes with nature without thinking of work.
Then someone suggests a movie, and you pop the portable projector out and the movie is up in no time at all, thanks to the projector's smart screen adaptation. A family of four treating themselves to a lovely dose of 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' under the stars is a beautiful sight to behold.
Whether the camping movie night is pre-planned or not, portable projectors are always perfect for the occasion. Whether for a loving couple or a family of ten, you can enjoy a great camping movie night with a portable projector that ticks the right boxes. With the sound from built-in speakers, ideal brightness levels, and an immersive viewing experience, portable projectors can turn any campsite into a camping movie theater.
Smart Portable Projectors— Why You Should Go Camping With Them
There are no limits to human satisfaction. We find something akin to perfection today, tomorrow we feel like adding something to it to make it even more perfect. Camping is a great experience, no doubt, just like grilled chicken is appealing food. Yet, we can have even more fun with certain activities while out camping, just as some people enjoy their chicken better when they put it in a pie.
Camping movie nights are a great way to bond while on the camping trip, and smart portable projectors are the typical devices that could make them even more fun. Seeing a movie is one thing, seeing a movie with friends and family feels even better, but having a wonderful viewing experience while spending time with your loved ones tops everything.
The beauty of having a smart portable projector handy is that you can watch all kinds of entertainment with it, especially if you have an internet connection. You could even play music and dance, or just enjoy the rhythm, if you don't feel like watching anything. Also, portable projectors are easy to set up. With some devices, all you need to do is place them in front of the projecting surface, turn them on, and watch the display align to your screen, focus, and avoid obstacles in seconds.
Planning A Camping Movie Theater— All You Need To Have In Place
The thought of sitting in the woods around a fire and enjoying a nice movie is appealing to many. You may even call it a mix of technology and nature. If you are planning a camping movie night at any campsite, here are a few must-haves you should keep in mind:
Portable Projector
Smart portable projectors are made for the outdoors, literally. They are easy to move around and can fit into a backpack quite well. Camping sites are not known to have power sources lying around— you cannot expect to find wires and wall sockets in the woods. Portable projectors address this need by packing built-in batteries that can give you up to two hours of playing time.
Content
Whether you have internet access or not, smart portable projectors provide you with multiple ways to get content onto the screen. In areas with WiFi, you can stream all kinds of entertainment through the projector's operating system (Android TV for some) which gives you over 5000 native apps including HBO, YouTube, etc. If the projector supports Chromecast built-in, you can also stream content to the projector from your smartphone or tablet via the screen mirroring feature.
In areas where internet connections are unavailable, you can connect a hard drive or flash drive through the projector's USB ports and project pre-downloaded content for your viewing pleasure.
Screen
You will need to have a projector screen handy to crown it all. A white screen between 80" to 120" should be sufficient. Even if you prefer a larger screen, sons portable projectors can display on screens of up to 300". Ideally, a mounted screen should do the trick, as long as you can find even ground to place the mount on. If you do not have a projector screen, you will have to make do with other surfaces like the body of a white van, the sides or insides of the tent, or a white sheet hanging from the trees.
With little ambient light available, the projector's brightness should be regulated such that the display does not hurt the eyes. 300 ANSI lumens should be sufficient enough to produce an excellent display while protecting the audience's eyes.
