Does the Aimtrak work on a 50" lcd screen?
« on: April 20, 2011, 11:37:37 pm »
I just would like to know if the ultimarc aimtrak could work on the 50" lcd screen of my living room. The ultimarc website only mentions arcade screen size of 19 and 28 inches.

If it works, how far would i have to be from the screen (i know the usb cable is 9 feet long).

Yes, it will work.  I've had my Aimtrack's hooked up to a 65" and a 102" without any issues.  The larger size you go the more difficult it is for the sensor to see the sensor bar when aiming at the edges of the screen.

Wow! 102"? Wouldn't it be more cost effective to just get a projector at that point? Heck, no complaints though, that's really awesome.
