Would this work on a horizontal surface (i.e. if you held it overhead like an overhead projector)?

With some imagination and creativity, you could use it however you wish. You could tape the image you wish to draw or trace to a wall or to the bottom of the "Artograph". You would have to figure out how to support the "Artograph" above the horizontal surface. As a matter of fact, I may well be doing this myself, as I wish to reproduce some old early 1900's family pictures. Either that, or I will somehow affix a blank canvas to a wall to draw on. You are only limited by your own imagination !!!

You can but it is not very effective because it is at a straight upright position. The horizontal works very well.

It will only be super stable horizontally. But using the Velcro they include and maybe an additional piece, you can definitely macgyver it to work vertically.

It will stand up in the "landscape" view. It's not super stable, but it works as long as its a flat, smooth surface.

Yes, it works great as an overhead light. We have six of them on the floor going up and three on the ceiling coming down as color wash on the back of our stage. I have used the remote within about 20 feet, but have not tried it any further. We now use a controller.

Yes as long as the lighting in the area does not interfere with the projection.

That is dependent on how far the projector is from the surface it is projected onto.

I tried it so the answer is NO not reliably. It may be ok initally (first couple of times) but has to be at least somewhat towards the horizontal before you could depend on it to hold.

If your projector has at least three mounting holes no more than a foot apart it will work.

Yes it will work. It is a splitter. I used it for two overhead projectors in two separate rooms.

Not for sure, but the "spider" that holds the projector has a fairly wide range of adjustments to hold most projectors. The look in our ceiling makes it almost unnoticeable. It is easy to adjust the angle and position of the projector, but you have to make sure you tighten real well to prevent movement.

It has a pretty wide range as far as the vertical pitch but that may distort your picture if your projector doesnt have a decent v shift. My ceiling is only 8 feet high and it works perfect. I would guess no higher than 12 feet to get a good view. The mount is really low profile. I don't know if I was much help haha. Good luck!!

I would think not, Wavelengths run vertical so mounting horizontally would receive a small portion of said wavelength.

I have used this same projector outdoors to watch movies on a 6 foot screen. ON a large screen I don't think this will work well. It is very bright but not bright enough for that sort of distance or width. I think you would be better off with a projector designed for movie projection.

It depends in how much space you have and if you use a regular projector you might get get in the way of the image and see your shadow on the screen..it could work but depends on your situation...shot throw can be mounted closer to the screen so you don't get in the way of the image

hello it could work for an overhead light but i wont recommend it cause of stethics issues and you need to get really close with the remote to adjust the lights

I use the vertical keystone feature all the time as the screen I show on in different rooms are at different heights. But I don't think there is a way to do horizontal keystone. I have to make sure the projector is at the right angle to the screen by manual means.
