For 3 Students x 4 Rows,

What would be right size to Project and Teach?

We are planning to buy a Projector which can just project only upto that size (Economy on Concern)

Along with that the following features can be more useful:
  1. Any Student can project their laptop in it to explain their scenario.
  2. What's the Advantage of a LASER Projector?
  3. Would be better if right sound system is advised to pair with to give a theatre like feel.
  4. 4K can be received?
  5. We are planning to run it for 8 Hours a Day for atleast 5 Days in a week.
  6. Must to available to either purchase/shipped to India...
Please be open to suggest or criticize whatever comes to your mind...

How about using a large monitor?

Studies have shown that optimum viewing angle for projected material is about 15 degrees either way, so max 30 degrees. Sine of 30 degrees is .5, so in a 10x10 room, the widest image you will get is 5 feet on the target wall. Probably slightly less since the projector itself will have to have some room and not be a built-in. Look at the specs for whatever you are considering to determine its maximum viewing angle. But there is a second consideration... your students can't be flush with the back wall either, so THEIR viewing angle would suggest a smaller image, more like 4 feet wide at the max, and maybe even less than that. Look VERY closely at the projector's ability to focus and adjust its image size.
