Projection Basics

Reflected light system Can be front or rear projection Simplest explanation:

Light is projected through a color wheel and then through a “chip”

Typically this “chip” is LCOS or DLP Passes through projection lens to

the wall or a screen

Projection vs LED

Projection Lowest upfront cost

Requires light-controlled room, NO direct sunlight

Front Projection – Requires unimpeded light path to screen

Rear Projection – Requires “throw distance” behind screen

Lots of bulbs to replace!

LED Higher price point

Can out-perform ambient light

No space required behind display, or in front of display

Low maintenance – No bulbs to replace and a lifecycle of over 10 years with good technology

Video Walls vs LED

Video Walls Heavy

Thick and bulky

Visible gaps between units

Complications with uniformity between units – especially in aging models
