Laser TV, késako?
As a reminder, with Laser TVs, based on ultra-short focal length video projector technology, a few tens of centimeters of distance are enough (less than 40 cm) to obtain an image up to 100'' (254 cm). And as their surname suggests, the Laser TVs have a DVB-T2/DVB-C/DVB-S2 tuner to enjoy DTT, cable or satellite channels.
