| Alright, here goes.
I've been asked by one of the companies I work for to set up a PC/projector setup. I've already got the PC picked out. I need help with the projector and screen. Normally, this would be quiet simple to pick out a projector and screen, but this is no normal layout. I need to the layout to look like this:
Projector - Screen - Audience
To put it simple, they want the projector behind the screen, so the audience doesn't see it.
Any help would be appreciated. | |

| Any particular reason they don't want the audience to see the projector?
The audeience will know there is one so what is the point? | |

| I work at a university. We have all of our master classrooms set up with the projector at the back of the classroom, mounted on the ceiling.
When I taught MCSE classes, my classroom was set up like that too.
Why don't you do that? | |

| Seems like the logical setup to me for what is required. | |

| That's how we have the boardroom setup at my company. It’s not that difficult of a setup. You will have your projector bouncing the image off a mirror in the back room to the screen. There are certain screens for this and projectors as well. Just call around to some companies that manufacturer both items and see what they recommend. Then write up your proposal with the prices you were given.
later

| I don't understand why they don't put it in the front of the audience either, but they are the ones paying the bills so I don't ask questions. I believe the reason they didn't want the projector in front of the screen is due to the presenter not being able to see their audience clearly with a bright light shining in there face.
However, I did stumble across some projectors with rear projection, which allows the projector to be set up behind the screen. So I went ahead and made the purcase along with a screen.
Thanks for all of the ideas! | |

| Can explain how a notebook/PC is connected to the projector? Tks. | |

| We use long monitor cables (20+ ft) and send them through the ceiling to the projector. |
