Re: Home Theater Screen Product Line - Development Research


I agree, Bill's input is great. A couple of things I didn't see mentioned (but I could've missed them):

Lightweight is good. It's nice if only one person can put it up/take it down.

Oh, and maybe offer an option to backlight the perimeter. A lot of people do that with rope lights...you can see mech's screenshots for an example of this.

Lastly, an option for an acoustically transparent screen would be nice. Hiding the speakers behind the screen is popular. Keep in mind that these screens have an open material, typically with a grid pattern. So, the pattern needs to be rotated on a > 15 degree angle to avoid moire' effects (picture degradation due to interaction in the fabric's grid pattern and the pixel pattern of the projector).
