A28 Periscope Lens and ZK Series Projector for Immersive Experience | optoma India

Creating immersive experiences sounds exciting on paper. In real life AV consultants, system integrators, museums and experience centres face many practical problems. The room may be too small or too low. 

Visitors might block the content with their shadows. Bright lights can make projected images hard to see.

Sometimes the projector just can't be placed where it needs to be.

These problems are common in India. Many exhibition spaces, museums, retail areas and corporate experience centres have to work with existing buildings. They don't have spaces built for the experience.

Optoma’s A28 periscope lens and ZK Series projectors can help solve these problems. Optoma provides a powerful solution for immersive experiences, with A28 periscope lens and ZK Series projectors.

Not Every Challenge Is About Space

When thinking about projection challenges people often think about room size. But even big venues can have installation problems. 

A museum might want to hide the projector so it doesn't ruin the aesthetic of the exhibit.  A corporate experience centre needs visitors to get close to projected content without making shadows.  A retail activation might need a large image without dedicating valuable floor space for projection equipment. 

The real challenge is flexibility.

Optoma solves this with the A28 periscope lens, which has an ultra-short throw ratio of 0.36:1. This means the projector can be close to the screen and still show great visuals. This gives designers, consultants and integrators greater freedom. They can create experiences without room layouts getting in the way.

The Optoma A28 periscope lens helps them achieve this. The projector and Optoma A28 periscope lens work together to make it easier to set up projections in limited spaces and provide great visuals. 

Solving One of Projection's Biggest Problems: Shadows

Anyone who has used projection technology knows how frustrating it can be when someone walks in front of the projector and a big shadow appears on the screen. It's really annoying in immersive environments where you want people to feel engaged.

The A28 lens helps solve this problem by letting you place the projector close to the wall or screen.

This means visitors can move around freely without blocking the image. For places like museums, interactive exhibits and educational centres this makes the experience better and more fun for visitors.

The A28 lens makes it possible for visitors to engage smoothly with the content without interruptions. It is particularly useful for experience centres where immersive engagement's key.

Bright, Detailed Visuals That Stand Out

Of course, installation flexibility means little if the image quality doesn't deliver.

The Optoma ZK1320 and ZK1120 are designed for places where image performance matters. These projectors are high brightness, up to 13,500 lumens for the ZK1320. 11,000 Lumens for the ZK1120.

This is especially useful in India, where many venues cannot maintain complete darkness throughout working hours. Open exhibition halls, buildings with glass fronts and multi-purpose spaces often have ambient light that can make images look bad.

With high-brightness laser projection the content remains vibrant, impactful and grabs attention. This helps visitors focus on the experience instead of struggling to see the visuals. The Optoma ZK1320 and ZK1120 projectors make sure that the visuals look great and deliver high performance. 

Brightness alone is not enough. The ZK Series also gives 4K UHD resolution. This means that artwork, digital content and architectural visualisations look sharp and detailed on big screens. When visitors are close to the content these details matter.

Designed for the Realities of Installation

High-brightness projectors were traditionally bulky and hard to set up.

Optoma did things differently. 

Despite the excellent performance, the ZK1320 and ZK1120 projectors are compact and light, weighing 16.8 kg without a lens. This makes them easy to move, hang and install. For system integrators managing multiple installations or working within tight project timelines, this can make a significant difference.

Flexibility doesn't stop there. The ZK series provide different lenses so you can use the right one for your space and needs. The A28 lens is one example, helping solve problems like space and shadows. The Optoma ZK series offer 8 lens options to choose from so consultants and installers can pick the best one, for each job.

Instead of forcing the venue to adapt to the projector, the projector adapts to the venue.

More Than Hardware: A Complete ProAV Solution

To have a successful immersive experience you need more than just good image quality. You also need something that's reliable, easy to control and works well with other systems. 

The ZK Series uses Optoma's DuraCore laser technology, providing long-term performance and helping reduce maintenance requirements. This is an important consideration for museums, visitor centres, and public-facing installations that run for long hours.

For larger deployments, Optoma Management Suite (OMS) allows AV and IT teams to remotely monitor and manage devices, simplifying day-to-day operations across multiple locations or display environments.

And for immersive attractions that combine projection with lighting effects, ArtNet support enables seamless synchronization between projection and stage lighting systems, helping create more cohesive and engaging experiences.

The Future of Immersive Experiences

As museums, experience centres, exhibitions, and corporate environments continue to turn to immersive storytelling, the demand for flexible projection solutions will only grow.

The combination of Optoma's A28 periscope lens and the ZK1320 and ZK1120 projectors offers a perfect solution to these needs.

Whether it comes to shadow-free experiences and concealed installations, high-brightness visuals, 4K UHD+ image quality, flexible lens options, and advanced management tools, the solution is designed to help organizations create immersive environments without any compromises.

Because the best projection technology isn't just about delivering great content but about making every space work smarter.
