I just ran my first session using a little mini projector pointed down at the table.
I know you don't like the idea of everyone staring at laptops around a table, so this might not be for you. I had that same inclination, which is why I am using Foundry, but having a central map on the table, and all die rolls are with physical dice, even though everyone's got a laptop. I guess alternatively, you could do the projector on the table, except you are the one controlling all the tokens (they tell you where you want to move), and you can even have physical pawns they move around, and then you match move the tokens.
I'm using a tiny projector (with a short throw) that I am mounting with a grabber thing to a chandelier above the table, and it has battery power so I don't need to run cables to it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09P8QYJ89
Only thing I'm not loving so far as that I can't have the room be overly bright or it just blows out the image. I suppose you could also get a small tv to set on the table and do the same thing.
