Get in Touch🎯 What is this tool?
A professional web-based projector alignment utility that displays precision test patterns to help you perfectly align your projector with your screen or projection surface.
Unlike basic test patterns or static images, this tool provides dynamic, customizable alignment grids that adapt to any projection setup. Whether you're installing a home theater, setting up a conference room, or calibrating a cinema system, this tool ensures pixel-perfect alignment every time.
Particularly useful for fine-tuning projector presets across different aspect ratios — quickly switch between 16:9 for movies, 4:3 for presentations, and ultrawide ratios for gaming.
Why Use This Tool?
Professional installers and enthusiasts trust precision alignment tools because manual adjustment often leads to cropped content, geometric distortion, and poor image quality. Essential for calibrating multiple aspect ratio presets on modern projectors.
Key Features

- ✓Corner markers for precise alignment (TL, TR, BL, BR)
- ✓Center crosshair and edge markers
- ✓Grid lines for geometry verification
- ✓Clean, high-contrast patterns
- ✓Fullscreen optimization
- ✓No installation required — runs in any modern browser
- ✓Works with all projector brands and models
📋 How to Use
Setup Requirements
For optimal accuracy, connect your computer directly to the projector via HDMI/DisplayPort and set the display to the projector's native resolution. Avoid mirroring or extending displays.
