    DIFFUSION SCREEN TECHNOLOGY

    Rear projector technology involves placing the projector behind the screen, shooting towards the audience. This allows the screen to control the light path distributing bright, sharp images into a predefined viewing zone. Pro Display rear projection screen technology creates full colour images, and video brighter than conventional projection screens, even in brightly lit environments.

    Our diffusion screen range supports standard or short throw projectors while our optical Digital Glass is designed for ultra-short throw projection.

    PRO DIFFUSION

    A versatile neutral-grey diffusion screen with superior brightness, contrast and extremely wide viewing angles Pro Diffusion is our biggest selling rear projection screen worldwide providing unparalleled brightness and excellent colour reproduction. This unique screen technology recreates a high definition image, making it the ideal choice for all video and advertising applications. A perfect mix of brightness and contrast makes this the ideal choice for a range of applications and the only diffusion screen technology that provides true 180° visibility.

    Producing a hand cast diffusion screen is an art in itself and far more labour intensive than the production methods used for other projection screen technology. Pro Display diffusion screens are manufactured using a very technical and precise process.

    IS REAR PROJECTION BETTER THAN FRONT PROJECTION?

    Whether or not rear projection is better than front projection can only be defined by the individual application. There are many factors to consider including the space available and the location of the screen itself.

    For example, if your application needs to accommodate movement in front of the screen, rear projection is the better option whereas if you’re limited on space, front projection would be better suited.

    WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN REAR PROJECTION SCREENS AND FILMS?

    Projection screens are rigid, often made from acrylic or glass, whereas projection films are made of a flexible material and are designed to be applied to glass or Plexiglas surfaces.

    Whilst projection films are most commonly used in window display applications, projection screens are the most popular choice for framed, suspended and mounted applications.

    WHAT'S THE BEST MATERIAL FOR A REAR PROJECTION SCREEN?

    In order to use any projector to its maximum potential, the screen has to be of optimal quality. Whilst there are many projection materials to choose from, their effectiveness will differ depending on the environment.

    For instance, our Pro Diffusion and Ultra Black screens are darker and solid in colour making them ideal for brighter environments, while our Clearview screen is transparent which is more suited for environments with controlled lighting.

    CAN YOU MANUFACTURE BESPOKE REAR PROJECTION SCREENS?

    Pro Display can manufacture bespoke rear projection screens in sizes up to 3000mm x 2000mm. These hand-cast diffusion screens are manufactured to your specific requirements and can accommodate everything from custom shapes to frames and fixings.

    Our specialist digital glass screens can be made in sizes up to 8000 mm x 3000mm and support UST projection.

    CAN YOU USE ANY PROJECTOR FOR REAR PROJECTION?

    Today, practically every projector available on the market supports rear projection.

    Reformatting your projector to operate as a rear projector can all be done in the settings. This is often as simple as just choosing the rear projection option within the display settings. Changing this flips the image so that when projected onto a screen from behind the image is displayed as it should be and not reversed from the other side of the screen.

    SPECIALIST REAR PROJECTION

    Our other rear projection products include Clearview which provides a holographic display effect, Digital Glass for ultra-short throw rear projection and SunScreen for sun readable rear projection applications. Custom Electric Rear Projector Screens can also be manufactured on request which retract into the housing when not in use.

    ACCESSORIES

    Pro Display offers a complete range of fixing systems, including wire cable suspension systems, aluminium frames and portable screen stands.
