Home and Business Projectors
A video projector takes a video signal and projects the corresponding image on a projection screen using a lens system. All video projectors use a very bright light to project the image, and most modern ones can correct any curves, blurriness, and other inconsistencies through manual settings.
Video projectors are widely used for conference room presentations, classroom training, and home theatre applications.
Video projectors may also be built into cabinets which use a rear projection screen to form a single unified display device, now popular for ""home theater"" applications.
Common display resolutions for a portable projector include SVGA (800x600 pixels), XGA (1024x768 pixels), and 720p (1280x720 pixels).
The cost of a device is not only determined by its resolution, but also by its brightness. While most modern projectors will provide sufficient brightness at night or under controlled lighting such as in a basement with no windows[1], a projector with a higher lumens rating is required for a room with a higher amount of ambient light.
A rating of 1000 to 1500 ANSI lumens or lower is suitable for smaller rooms with controlled lighting or low ambient light.[1][2] Between 1500 to 3000 ANSI is suitable for medium sized rooms with some ambient light or dimmed light. Over 3000 ANSI is appropriate for very large screens in a large room with no lighting control (for example, a conference room).
Projected image size is also important, as the total amount of light does not change, as size increases, brightness decreases. An increase in a widescreen image from 80 inches diagonal to 100 inches diagonal reduces the image brightness by 35 percent. (Wikipedia)
