Carl’s EYE XO2 Curved Golf Package Features the BenQ AK700ST Projector to Deliver a Premium Golf Simulation Experience
COSTA MESA, Calif. — March 19, 2025 — BenQ, an internationally renowned provider of visual display and collaboration solutions, and Carl’s Place, a top provider of golf simulation enclosures, today announced a collaboration featuring the BenQ AK700ST projector and Carl’s Place Curved Golf Enclosure Kit. Bundled in the Carl’s EYE XO2 Curved Golf Package, this partnership offers customers a premium golf simulation projector with a curved screen setup to deliver an indoor golf experience with unmatched realism, elegance, and immersion.
“At Carl’s Place, we’re always looking for the best technology to help golfers create the most immersive and realistic simulator experience possible,” said Carl Markestad, president of Carl’s Place. “We’re thrilled to partner with BenQ — their focus on golf simulation and the innovation they’ve brought to the market with their new golf series projectors is very exciting. Their commitment to high-quality visuals, ease of setup, and performance makes BenQ projectors a top choice for our customers, and we’re proud to recommend them for an exceptional indoor golf experience.”
The Carl’s EYE XO2 Curved Golf Package features the BenQ AK700ST 4000-Lumen 4K short-throw laser golf simulator projector, Carl’s Place Curved Golf Enclosure Kit, and the top-selling Uneekor EYE XO2 Launch Monitor. Also included in the bundle are a projector mount and Carl’s 6×10 HotShot™ Hitting Mat, as well as a subscription license for GSPro golf simulation software. As the first curved screen golf setup retailing at under $22,000, the package was developed to provide users with the tools to set up an immersive golf simulation environment at an affordable price.
Innovative Technology for an Immersive Experience
Designed with the requirements of golf simulation in mind, the BenQ AK700ST features 4K UHD resolution, 4000 lumens of brightness, and maintenance-free install. Its Auto Screen Fit and Quick Focus intelligent technology automates the setup process to achieve effortless, full-screen projection and seamless transitions for the chosen screen at the touch of a button. With state-of-the-art features such as a motorized lens and advanced sensors, it automatically identifies the screen size, adjusts the zoom, corrects the tilt, and ensures a sharp, perfectly focused image.
The AK700ST’s correction and warping features allow for seamless projection onto a curved screen. Curved screen setups mimic human vision to improve depth perception and offer a realistic experience, providing a panoramic, wraparound display that traditional screens lack. This elevates both home and commercial golf simulator installations, offering an unparalleled experience for golfers of all skill levels.
A One-Projector Job
A common misconception among golf simulator enthusiasts is that a curved screen setup requires multiple projectors. Not only is this not the case, but the AK700ST is uniquely suited for this scenario. Equipped with an onboard camera and motorized zoom and focus, the projector quickly identifies the edges of the impact screen and automatically adjusts the image within seconds, ensuring an accurate setup every time. The AK700ST’s innovative technology enables flawless projection onto curved surfaces with a single unit, simplifying installation and reducing costs while maintaining exceptional visual quality.
“Our partnership with Carl’s Place brings a realistic golf experience indoors at an affordable price, making high-end golf simulation technology more accessible than ever before,” said Bob Wudeck, senior director of business development at BenQ. “The advanced warping and correction features of the BenQ AK700ST projector make it ideal for this solution, and its integrated automation tools provide easy installation for both seasoned golf sim users and those who are just starting out. We’re thrilled to be part of this unique opportunity to bring an immersive golf simulation experience to a wider audience.”
