From the lack of content sources to the imperfect laser pointer technology, these have severely limited the development of 8K projection. In other words, even if you now have an 8K display device, it may be useless.
The author believes that it is still too early to discuss 8K projection. We must know that 4K home projection has just started the road to popularization at the end of last year. This year should be the year when 4K projection focuses on the home field. As for 8K, it is still too early to say.
But looking forward to the future, 8K must be the development direction of the projection industry, because compared with other home display devices, the projection of a large 100-inch screen requires higher resolution. In addition, issues such as playback, decoding, and film source do not need to be overly concerned, because once 8K equipment is widely popularized, related industries will also develop rapidly. By then, these problems can be solved well.
It is also gratifying that China’s Internet communication technology is developing rapidly, which will lay the foundation for the transmission of 8K content. Soon 5G high-speed networks may come to our side, which will become an important support for 8K display equipment, so we have reasons to believe that 8K will sooner or later become the protagonist in the field of home large screens.
The advent and elimination of products need to follow certain laser pointer rules, so I predict that 8K may develop along the 4K footprint in the field of projection. From the proposal in 2011 to the price reduction in 2017, 4K projection took six years. At present, we are at the time when 8K was just released, which means that we need 5 to 6 years to usher in the popularity of 8K projection.
