The Sanyo LNS-W32 is an ultra-short throw, fixed focal length lens engineered for specific high-lumen Sanyo projector models, enabling exceptionally large image projection from a very short distance. With a fixed throw ratio of 0.8:1, it allows the projector to be positioned just a fraction of the screen width away—often mounted directly above or below the screen surface. This capability is transformative in environments with severe space constraints, such as interactive classrooms, digital signage in narrow corridors, small meeting rooms, and museum displays, where it eliminates shadows cast by presenters and minimizes the projector's obtrusive presence, creating a clean, integrated aesthetic.

Optically designed to manage the extreme angles of ultra-short throw projection, the lens incorporates specialized glass elements and coatings to deliver a sharp, bright, and geometrically correct image with minimal distortion, such as keystoning. It ensures that the projector's full brightness and resolution are effectively utilized on the screen, maintaining color accuracy and edge-to-edge focus. The lens features a manual focus ring for final image sharpness tuning and is constructed to dissipate the significant heat generated by its host projector, guaranteeing stable performance and longevity in continuous operation.

This lens is a critical tool for AV system designers tackling challenging spatial layouts. By enabling a projector to fill a large screen from an almost adjacent position, the LNS-W32 opens up new possibilities for installation in spaces where traditional projection is impossible. It is ideal for creating seamless, large-format visual displays that are both impactful and space-efficient, making it a preferred solution for modern educational technology, compact boardrooms, and immersive retail environments where maximizing screen size while minimizing projector footprint is paramount.
