Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series THE DMD™ The DMD™ Notes A DMD™ (Digital Micromirror Device™) is a true digital light modulator which utilises an array of up to 2.3 million moving aluminium mirrors, with each one representing a pixel in the final projected image. The outermost micromirrors in the array remain inactive (pond of mirrors) and are not used in constructing the image.
Page 83
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series THE DMD™ Notes Depending on the voltage polarity applied, each mirror will either tilt to the left to produce a bright pixel or to the right for a dark pixel. When light is applied to the complete DMD™, only the light redirected from a mirror tilting to the left is projected.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series CHOOSING A LENS Choosing A Lens Notes A number of lenses are available. Which lens you choose depends on the screen size, image aspect ratio, throw distance and light output. For information about individual lens...
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series CHOOSING A LENS Basic calculation Notes Identify the required lens by calculating the throw ratio. A throw ratio is the ratio of the throw distance to the screen width: The basic calculation on this page...
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series CHOOSING A LENS Basic calculation example Notes INFORMATION YOU NEED FOR THIS CALCULATION Calculate the throw ratio using the formula. The basic calculation on this page does not take into consideration Your screen is 4.5 m wide and you wish to place the projector DMD™...
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series CHOOSING A LENS Full lens calculation Notes Introducing TRC The choice of lens will affect the image size and will address discrepancies between the DMD™ resolution and the source. TRC can only be applied if greater When an image fills the height of the DMD™...
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series CHOOSING A LENS Calculating TRC Notes To calculate TRC, use the following formula: 1.6 (DMD™ aspect ratio) TRC can only be applied if greater TRC = than 1. If TRC is 1 or less, disregard...
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series CHOOSING A LENS Calculating the throw ratio with TRC Notes For TRC > 1, amend the basic throw ratio formula as follows: Throw distance TRC can only be applied if greater Throw ratio = than 1.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series CHOOSING A LENS Full lens calculation example Notes Your screen is 4.5 m wide; you wish to place the projector INFORMATION YOU NEED FOR THESE CALCULATIONS approximately 11 m from the screen. The source is 4:3.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series SCREEN REQUIREMENTS Screen Requirements Notes Fitting the image to the DMD™ If the source image supplied to the projector is smaller than the DMD™ resolution, the image will not fill the DMD™. The following examples show how a number of common formats may be displayed, depending on your DMD™...
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series SCREEN REQUIREMENTS WUXGA images displayed full height Notes Only WUXGA or UXGA images can fill the full height of the DMD™, using all 1200 pixels without scaling. UXGA = 4:3 = 1.33:1 = 1600 pixels WUXGA = 16:10 = 1.6:1 = 1920 pixels...
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series SCREEN REQUIREMENTS Diagonal screen sizes Notes Screen sizes are sometimes specified by their diagonal size (D). When dealing W = width with large screens and projection distances at different aspect ratios, it is more convenient to measure screen width (W) and height (H).
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series SCREEN REQUIREMENTS Fitting the image to the screen Notes It is important that your screen is of sufficient height and width to display images at all the aspect ratios you are planning to use.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series SCREEN REQUIREMENTS Positioning the screen and projector Notes For optimum viewing, the screen should be a flat surface perpendicular to the floor. The bottom of the screen should The projector should be installed be 1.2 m (4 feet) above the floor and the front row of the as close to the power outlet as audience should not have to look up more than 30°...
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series POSITIONING THE IMAGE Positioning The Image Notes The normal position for the projector is at the centre of the screen. However, you can set the projector above or below the centre, or to one side, and adjust the image using the Lens shift feature (known as rising and falling front) to maintain a geometrically correct image.
Page 98
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series POSITIONING THE IMAGE Notes Any single adjustment outside the ranges specified on the following page may result in an unacceptable level of distortion, particularly at the corners of the image, due to the image passing through the periphery of the lens optics.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series POSITIONING THE IMAGE Maximum offset range Notes The maximum offset range available with no distortion or vignetting is dependent on which lens is used. Shifting the lens beyond its undistorted limits may be physically possible, however you may experience some vignetting or distortion.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series ASPECT RATIOS EXPLAINED Aspect Ratios Explained Notes The appearance of a projected image on the screen depends on a combination of the following: • The DMD™ resolution is WUXGA with a 1920 x 1200 resolution, corresponding to an aspect ratio of 16:10 •...

Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series ASPECT RATIOS EXPLAINED Aspect ratio example: TheaterScope Notes Notes setting is used in combination with an anamorphic lens to restore 2.35:1 images packed into a 16:9 frame. Such images TheaterScope are projected with black lines at the top and bottom of the 16:9 screen to make up for the difference in aspect ratios.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series FRAME RATES AND PULLDOWNS EXPLAINED Frame Rates And Pulldowns Explained Notes Interlaced and progressive scan A progressive scan is a method of updating the image by drawing all the lines of each frame in a sequence. In contrast, interlaced video alternately scans odd and even lines.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series FRAME RATES AND PULLDOWNS EXPLAINED Pulldowns - conversion into destination formats Notes Pulldowns are a method of converting a 24p source into a different destination format by adding extra frames to the source. 2:3 (normal) pulldown This method is used to convert a 24p source (film) into a 60i destination (NTSC video) by adding two extra fields for every four frames, effectively increasing the frame rate to 30 fps.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series FRAME RATES AND PULLDOWNS EXPLAINED 2:3:3:2 (advanced) pulldown Notes This method is very similar to the normal pulldown. Unlike the normal pulldown method, the resulting 30 fps video sequence contains only one frame containing fields from two different source frames.

Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series APPENDIX F: GLOSSARY OF TERMS Interlacing Notes A method of updating the image. The screen is divided in two fields, one containing every odd horizontal line, the other one containing the even lines. The fields are then alternately updated. In analog TV interlacing was commonly used as a way of doubling the refresh rate without consuming extra bandwidth.
