Projection image display

A projection image display includes: a screen unit that has a screen; a projection unit that projects an image onto the screen from a back surface of the screen; a housing that houses the projection unit; a slide mechanism that supports the screen unit such that the screen unit moves in an anterior-posterior direction; a locking mechanism that restricts a movement of the slide mechanism; and an adjustment mechanism that is capable of adjusting a position of the screen unit with respect to the housing from the outside while the locking mechanism restricts the movement of the slide mechanism.

Method and apparatus for joining screen material for minimal optical distortion

The present disclosure describes a manufacturing method for seaming materials. The process may be suitable for manufacturing high performance projection screens using a number of methods including, but not limited to, conventional (convert-before-coating) methods, or convert-after-coating methods. An objective of the present disclosure is to identify a process which may substantially minimize distortion of the local surface normal in the vicinity of the join.
