COSTA MESA, Calif. — Feb. 6, 2025 — BenQ, an internationally renowned provider of visual display and collaboration solutions, today announced the launch of the BenQ AK700ST, the newest innovation in the company’s leading lineup of golf simulation projectors. The BenQ AK700ST 4000-Lumen 4K short-throw laser golf simulator projector easily switches between immersive golf simulation and cinematic-grade 4K resolution projections. It uses Auto Screen Fit and Quick Focus intelligent technology to automate the install and setup process to achieve effortless full-screen projection and seamless transitions for the chosen screen and space at the touch of a button.
“This projector provides two incredible experiences for the price of one,” said Bob Wudeck, senior director of business development at BenQ. “With its integrated automation tools, the BenQ AK700ST projector practically installs itself and easily switches between golf simulation and movies with a single click. We’ve paired these features with superb color accuracy and zero maintenance to create a complete 4K entertainment experience for everyone.”
BenQ AK700ST’s Easy DIY Setup and Transitions
Unlike traditional projectors that require complex installations and precise measurements, the BenQ AK700ST simplifies the process with just a few clicks on a unique remote control. It allows users to easily change aspect ratios with a single click, guaranteeing a seamless full-screen experience without the hassle of adjusting settings. Equipped with cutting-edge features such as a motorized lens and advanced sensors, it automatically detects the screen size, adjusts the zoom, corrects tilt, and delivers a perfectly focused image. Whether users are working on their golf swing or hosting a movie night, the AK700ST ensures full-screen 4K projections without the trouble of time-consuming transitions and setup.
The BenQ AK700ST’s short-throw lens and versatile zoom capabilities allow for safe installation away from the hitting area while preventing shadows on the screen, no matter the screen size. With an onboard camera and motorized zoom and focus, the projector quickly identifies the edges of the impact screen and adjusts the image automatically in seconds. It ensures a flawless setup every time, accommodating all standard screen sizes, including popular 1:1 aspect ratio screens often used in garage setups.
Immersive Experience With Zero Maintenance
The BenQ AK700ST excels with 95% Rec. 709 color accuracy, ensuring every detail — from the lush green fairways to the deep blue oceans — is vivid and lifelike, enhancing the overall simulation experience. Like all projectors in the BenQ’s golf-sim lineup, it features a maintenance-free design. An IP5X-rated, sealed, dust-proof laser engine eliminates the need for lamp replacements and filter cleaning, allowing users to focus on their game without worrying about maintenance.
BenQ AK700ST Is Bright for Well-Lit Rooms
The BenQ AK700ST features true 4K resolution and 8.3 million pixels, bringing every detail of the golf course to life, in addition to 4000 lumens of brightness and high-contrast. As a result, the projector performs brilliantly even in well-lit environments, making it ideal for standard enclosures and varied lighting conditions, such as garages. This combination of resolution and brightness ensures that the image quality remains top-notch in any setting.
BenQ AK700ST Is Ready for Wireless Projection
The BenQ AK700ST is designed to meet the needs of modern users with its advanced connectivity options. With an optional dongle, the AK700ST’s Wi-Fi capability supports wireless projection from mobile devices, eliminating the need for cables and ensuring seamless integration with various launch monitor setups.
