Today's projected images are not the same as those years ago. The equipment used is different and much brighter and the shape of the images has changed. Screen specifications should be updated to match today's technology.
It is not uncommon for projection screen specifications to be 20-30 years old. Square glass beaded screens were cutting edge 30 years ago. Today's high resolution graphics and images coupled with brighter projectors, however, require a different screen shape and material to show the image to its best advantage. We have also learned more about how the eye perceives images. Come and get the simple basics that will allow you to specify projection screens with confidence.
