If you thought projection systems were just for classrooms, movie theaters and big sporting events, you might be surprised to learn how much more powerful and flexible — not to mention affordable — projection technology has become over the past few years. Today’s houses of worship use projectors not only on the walls of large sanctuaries, but also to turn classrooms, meeting spaces, and even floors and ceilings, into colorful canvases of digital images and video.

Let’s take a closer look at how cutting-edge congregations are using projection systems to transform interior spaces throughout their houses of worship. You’ll probably find that many of these ideas spark your own imagination, too.

When it comes to projection technology, the journey of innovation is not just about advancing hardware, it's about transforming how businesses and individuals experience visual content. At Sharp, our recent integration marks a pivotal moment in our commitment to pioneering the future of projectors. 

Visualizing projectors may conjure images of the “3 … 2 … 1” film reel countdown seen on movie theater screens of yore, or of clunky classroom equipment wheeled around on a chalk dust-covered cart – but today’s projectors couldn’t be more different from these relics. Advances in technology provide new levels of brightness, image quality and connectivity options, making projectors ideal for unusual or challenging applications, including areas with high ambient light, uneven surfaces or sharp angles, across a multitude of verticals.

The introduction of 4K projectors that deliver incredibly high resolution and superior color accuracy has given people the power to bring their imaginations to life like never before. Artists, museums, schools and businesses are leveraging the high detail, true color rendition and cinema-quality video of projectors to reimagine spaces all over the world in order to educate, attract and engage new customers or to uplift and inspire people in new and innovative ways. Simply put, projection technology is paving the way to new possibilities.
