The basic calculation on this page
does not take into consideration
DMD™ and image size, which could
aff ect the throw ratio. For a more
complex and realistic calculation,
see

in this
section.
When calculating the throw ratio, be
sure to use identical measurement
units for both the throw distance and
the screen width.
