The UO Smart Beam Laser Ad, on Amazon, no longer says Sony's or Celluon's name in regard to the remark about laser danger. It just uses initials now (S and C). Someone but the kibosh on that one.
There are currently 3 portable laser projectors in the world: SK Telecom's UO Smart Beam Laser and other S and C brand that use technology very similar to that of an electron gun. One can see through a camera lens, electron beam wave flowing on the projected image like an analog TV. This laser beam can cause serious harm to human eye.

Everything you seem to want to accomplish would be exactly the same using a PC monitor. I am not sure how using a small projector would be in any way better? For your bezel issue just design a gap in front of the monitor where you can slide in different bezel shapes. There are also bezel artwork options in mame to fill in the blank spaces with artwork. Do not take this as discouraging advice, by all means try it your way. I just don't see any difference in using a monitor vs a projector.
Also, most projectors require about 2-3 feet of space to project the image clearly. This one needs 2 feet for a 20" screen size:

Actually the UO Smart Beam Laser (https://www.amazon.com/UO-Smart-Beam-Laser-resolution/dp/B014QZ4FLO) which uses Lasers to illuminate LCOS will also be focus free (have “infinite focus”). I can’t really recommend the UO product because they do a poor job of color balancing (generally red deficient), but their resolution is much higher and they are about 1.5X brighter. I have not measured the color on the Sony projectors, but the color was off (too red) on the Celluon Pico Pro which use a Sony optical engine. I saw UO at CES and they will be coming out with new products this year (hopefully they will fix the color).
Note that most projectors that call themselves “laser,” particularly the ones with over 1000 lumens, use a blue laser to illuminate a phosphor wheel with green (and often red and blue phosphors) on it and are NOT focus free. For marketing reasons t they emphasize the word “laser” but are technically “hybrid laser/phosphor” projectors.
For a few applications, like yours, focus free is necessary. Most of the time you set up a project and the screen and there is no need to change the focus. So in today’s market you can get an much brighter and higher resolution LED based projector with better color for less than half the cost of a laser projector; so unless being focus free is absolutely necessary, the vast majority of people will op for the LED projector.
I don't see how it could possibly automatically correct keystone from the sides, it has no reference point, it would need a camera for that, and even then...
I imagine it could correct keystone from tilt, that's a common feature on many full size projectors, but that doesn't take care of side correction.
You can buy a micro laser projector 2" square for the same price and twice the brightness and HD.

But you are correct, I'm all for innovation, and it does look like a cool product, but the ad is a lie :-)
Somebody tell me about the UO Smart Beam ...
