To minimize the effects caused by unwanted light from door and aisle ways,
carefully choose the position of your projector and screen. Figure 2.5 shows an
installation where poor screen placement allows too much unwanted light to enter the
screen. In Figure 2.6, screen and the projector are positioned so that unwanted light is
minimized.
Even with all lighting removed it is still possible that room reflections within the
room can slightly degrade the image. Light from the projection screen should be
absorbed by the ceilings, walls and floors so that it will not be reflected back to the
screen. Again, keep reflective surfaces to a minimum.
'
Here are some other considerations and tips which can help you improve your
installation:
•
Ventilation is an important factor when preparing a projection room. The ambient
temperature should be kept constant and below 35°C (95°F). Keep the projector
away from heating and/or air conditioning vents. Changes in temperature can
cause drifts in the projector circuitry which may affect performance.
•
Keep the projector away from devices which radiate electromagnetic energy such
as motors and transformers. Common sources of these are slide projectors,
speakers, power amplifiers, elevators, etc.
