Installed Elementary Projectors

2014


Goals

• Provide on-demand projection technology

• Eliminate the cart and cords across the floor

• Replace aging and expensive equipment– Old projector bulbs $240, new $79

– Brighter, high resolution image


Why we project on the board

• The short-throw projection technology requires a 90 degree angle.

• A pull down screen creates an image that has a keystone problem.

• Any movement in the screen is exaggerated by the projection image.
