The three front channels and the twin surround channels create high-quality audio, giving you more depth and realism as if you were really there!

It requires very little energy to run Tairona, thus the heat generated from the device is also very little compared to other bigger projectors or projectors with high lumens, making the heat dissipation efficient and quiet.

What’s New for Kickstarter

Earlier this year we launched the first version of Tairona Projector in our home country, Taiwan. The success took us by surprise and we received a lot of feedback from our users. Taking these precious reviews into consideration, we made a few changes and upgrades to Tairona Projector to provide an even better experience for our future users.

  • New Color: Sakura Pink

White is an all-time classic but we wanted to add a little twist to the color options. Sakura Pink is a new and elegant color just for our Kickstarter backers!

  • Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound Technology

We added an upgrade to the audio of Tairona Projector, the new chip supports Dolby 5.1 multichannel sound effect. By connecting to your speaker, you’ll be able to really elevate the experience with the cinema level audio.

  • HDMI ARC

Unlike most projectors that only support 3.5mm audio jack, the HDMI ARC of Tairona Projector allows the Dolby surround sound effect to be transmitted to speakers that support ARC, without the need of connecting to conventional fiber optical or coaxial cable.

Tairona Projector might be tiny in size but its interior is no simple trick. To design a functional and user friendly projector, it’s essential to have both the software and hardware carefully designed. We have a team consisting of top engineers to achieve just that. From the PCB (printed circuit board), operating system, user interface and projection color tuning are all done by our in-house engineers.

With countless tests, we devoted ourselves to finding the color balance that best matches the reality, giving our user the true and comfortable viewing experience. After spending months going through prototyping, testing and refinements, we succeeded in making Tairona Projector a functional yet portable device with great presentations.  

Here are some images that demonstrate the process of our product design and the prototype development.

This unedited video briefly shows the the basic features of Tairona Projector, the users can choose various streaming apps and browse content freely (ps. we pre-downloaded some apps from Google Play Store for this demo) . The projector provides short-throw projection but the image can be projected up to 120″ of size. Aside from the projector itself, users can also share content by synchronizing their smartphones using the screen mirroring function.
