Operational Characteristics of Rear Projection

John F. Dreyer

Rear-projection screens of low reflection reduce the effects of light on the screen and allow increase in the ambient light. Goniophotometric curves and setup of screen are given. Distribution, gain, reflection and resolution are discussed as factors. The physiological effects of increased ambient light are considered. The brightness of the picture should at least equal the level of the surrounding light to which the eye is adapted.
