First, I'll want to outline the key features. If it's a 4K projector or monitor, important aspects would be resolution, brightness, color accuracy, connectivity options, design, and user experience. Since 4K is a high resolution, the clarity and detail would be a major selling point. I should check if the product supports high dynamic range (HDR) as well, which enhances the visual experience.
A cross-platform console application that can export and decompile Source 2 resources similar to the main application.
.NET library that powers Source 2 Viewer (S2V), also known as VRF. This library can be used to open and extract Source 2 resource files programmatically.
// Open package and read a file
using var package = new Package();
package.Read("pak01_dir.vpk");
var packageEntry = package.FindEntry("textures/debug.vtex_c");
package.ReadEntry(packageEntry, out var rawFile);
// Read file as a resource
using var ms = new MemoryStream(rawFile);
using var resource = new Resource();
resource.Read(ms);
Debug.Assert(resource.ResourceType == ResourceType.Texture);
// Get a png from the texture
var texture = (Texture)resource.DataBlock;
using var bitmap = texture.GenerateBitmap();
var png = TextureExtract.ToPngImage(bitmap);
File.WriteAllBytes("image.png", png);

Source 2 Viewer is open-source and built by volunteers. Every contribution helps make it better for everyone.
