In video projection terminology, throw is the distance between a video projector lens and the screen on which it shines. It is given as a ratio (called throw ratio), which describes the relationship between the distance to the screen and the width of the screen (assuming the image is to fill the screen fully).
A projector's throw ratio is used when installing projectors to control the size of the projected display. [1] For example, if the throw ratio is 2:1 and the projector is fourteen feet away from the screen, then the display width will be seven feet.
An overhead projector works on the same principle as a slide projector, in which a focusing lens projects light from an illuminated slide onto a projection screen where a real image is formed. However some differences are necessitated by the much larger size of the transparencies used (generally the size of a printed page), and the requirement ...
The projector may be small in size, but it's not small in strength — it can project up to 100 inches (just over eight feet) onto a flat surface with 100 ANSI Lumens of brightness and just the ...
The "optimal viewing distance" [5] is based on the limits of the human eye, i.e. its angle of resolution. This is its ability to distinguish between two pixels. For normal visual acuity (6/6 vision), this angle is 1 arcmin. To obtain a fixed distance for a given resolution, it must be expressed in picture heights (H). [5]
A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.
A Zenith 1200 CRT Projector based home theater. Visible extending from the ceiling are three lenses, one each for red, green and blue Black and white CRT projector. A CRT projector is a video projector that uses a small, high-brightness cathode-ray tube (CRT) as the image generating element. The image is then focused and enlarged onto a screen ...
By contrast, a digital cinema playback system—including server, media block, and projector—can cost two to three times as much, [70] and would have a greater risk of component failure and obsolescence. (In Britain the cost of an entry-level projector including server, installation, etc., would be £31,000 [$50,000].)
