  • Page 33 Section 2: Installation and Setup Front Screen Installations In front screen installations, the projector and audience are positioned in front of the screen, which can be flat or curved. Flat screens offer a gain of about 1.0 with a viewing angle just less than 180°. This type of screen reflects incident light equally in all directions so the audience can see the display from various angles.
  • Page 34 Section 2: Installation and Setup Rear Screen Installations There are two basic types of rear screens: diffused and optical. A diffused screen has a surface which spreads the light striking it. Purely diffused screens have a gain of less than 1.0.
