"Why sketch on a 15″ tablet when you could draw on a 150″ virtual screen? Honor just announced the Choice AI Projector Air, and it wants to turn your living room wall into the world's cheapest interactive whiteboard. For 599 yuan (roughly 84 dollars), you get a compact 1080p LCD projector with stylus input, gesture controls, and enough quirks to make it feel less like a home theater device and more like a tablet that escaped its bezels."
"The basics are straightforward: 1080p resolution, 280 CVIA lumens, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0, HDMI 2.0, and a 5W speaker. The interesting part is what happens when you pair it with the stylus. You can tap UI elements, sketch on the wall, play pen-driven games, or just draw terrible stick figures during game night while your friends yell out Pictionary guesses. The projector also supports gesture controls and can tilt up to 160 degrees, so ceiling projection is on the table."
"This approach is a clever way to sidestep the usual budget projector arms race. Instead of trying to compete in the crowded market of generic streaming boxes that just happen to have a lens, Honor is creating a new niche. The "AI" in the name likely refers to the practical computer vision tasks handled by its Hisilicon chip, powering features like gesture recognition and intelligent image correction for things like obstacle avoidance and keystone adjustments."
Honor’s Choice AI Projector Air projects up to a 150″ interactive surface and costs 599 yuan (about $84). It uses a compact 1080p LCD panel with 280 CVIA lumens, Wi‑Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0, HDMI 2.0, and a 5W speaker. The device accepts a stylus for tapping UI elements, sketching, and pen-driven games, and supports gesture controls and 160° tilt for ceiling projection. Honor plans to ship in China starting December 8 in white and purple. The Hisilicon chip handles computer vision tasks like gesture recognition and image correction. Tracking accuracy and the software ecosystem remain undetailed, making execution crucial.
