BenQ LK936ST 4K Short Throw Laser Golf Simulator Projector

The BenQ LK936ST has long been one of the most popular premium projectors for high-end golf simulator installations.

With 5,100 ANSI lumens, 4K UHD resolution, a flexible 0.81–0.89 short-throw ratio, and extensive optical lens shift, the LK936ST delivers the brightness, image quality, and installation flexibility needed for large simulator screens and multi-purpose entertainment spaces.

For customers who want a proven 4K laser projector with excellent brightness and exceptional placement flexibility, the LK936ST remains a very strong choice.

Bright 4K Performance

The LK936ST delivers 5,100 ANSI lumens of brightness and true 3840 × 2160 4K UHD resolution, giving it the output needed for large impact screens while maintaining excellent image detail.

Its 3,000,000:1 rated contrast ratio and 92% Rec.709 color coverage help produce a more natural and immersive image than a traditional high-brightness presentation projector.

BenQ’s dedicated Golf Mode is tuned specifically for simulator use, helping greens, fairways, rough, bunkers, and other course elements appear more realistic and balanced.

Excellent for Large Simulator Rooms

The LK936ST uses a 0.81–0.89 throw ratio, making it especially well suited for medium-to-large golf simulator rooms.

That throw range allows the projector to remain safely behind the golfer while still filling large impact screens, helping reduce shadows and keeping the projector away from the swing path.

BenQ continues to position the LK936ST as one of its top options for larger simulator spaces and maximum immersion.

Extensive Optical Lens Shift

One of the biggest advantages of the LK936ST is its installation flexibility.

The projector offers:

• ±60% Vertical Lens Shift

• ±23% Horizontal Lens Shift

• 1.1x Optical Zoom

• 3D Keystone Correction

• ±40° Vertical Keystone

• ±40° Horizontal Keystone

• ±40° Rotation Adjustment

Because lens shift is optical, the projector can be moved vertically or horizontally without relying entirely on digital image correction. This can be extremely useful when ceiling joists, launch monitors, lighting, or other room features prevent the projector from being mounted in the ideal location.

Golf Simulator and Home Theater in One

The LK936ST is equally comfortable as the centerpiece of a multi-purpose simulator room.

Its 4K resolution, high brightness, Golf Mode, and wide range of picture settings make it well suited for:

• Golf simulation

• Movies

• Sports

• Streaming

• Console gaming

• PC gaming

The LK936ST also includes HDMI eARC, allowing compatible soundbars or AV receivers to receive high-quality audio through a single HDMI connection.

For more complex installations, the projector also includes HDBaseT, which can transmit 4K video and audio over long cable runs using a single network cable.

Long-Life Laser Performance

The LK936ST uses a laser light source rated for approximately 20,000 hours in Normal mode and up to 30,000 hours in ECO mode.

That eliminates traditional lamp replacements and makes the projector well suited for both frequently used home simulators and commercial installations.

Pixel Golf Recommendation

The LK936ST remains one of the best choices for customers who need a bright, flexible 4K projector for a premium golf simulator installation.

Its combination of 5,100 lumens, 4K resolution, a 0.81–0.89 throw ratio, and extensive horizontal and vertical lens shift makes it particularly well suited for larger rooms and installations where projector placement needs to be flexible.

The newer AK900ST builds on this formula with 6,000 lumens and BenQ’s latest automated setup and golf-specific processing features, while the LK936ST remains an excellent option for customers who prioritize proven performance, optical lens shift, and installation flexibility.

For customers who do not need the AK900ST’s newest automated features, the LK936ST continues to deliver a premium simulator experience and remains one of BenQ’s most capable golf simulator projectors.
