BenQ TH575 1080p Projector

I recently bought a new projector — the BenQ TH575 — mainly for movie nights and gaming. But while exploring the settings menu, I stumbled across something I didn’t expect to see:

Projector menu showing 3D option

Wait… 3D?

As in shutter-glasses 3D? On a 2025 projector?

I had to learn more!

Project Notes

Project Status In-Progress
Goal Learn more about the 3D capabilities of my BenQ projector.

After consulting the docs, I discovered that:

  1. The TH575 does indeed support stereoscopic 3D playback
  2. But only with glasses that use DLP-Link synchronisation

I hastily purchased some AWOL VISION 3D DLP-Link glasses, and (after some trial and error), was able to conjure some impressive Blu-ray 3D video.

Next up, I plan to try 3D gaming.

The project continues!
