There are several factors to consider when choosing the right screen for your particular needs, but perhaps the most pressing for most people is cost. Screen Innovations offers three different series of screens with a full range of options, ensuring that you can find a screen that fits your needs and your budget.

If you’re looking for an entry-level screen that will offer good performance in standard sizes, the Sensation series is probably your best bet. The Sensation series includes both portable pull-up and pull-down screens that are great for temporary use and fixed screens that focus on basic quality and affordability. Your options are more limited, but you’ll get a good picture at a great price.

If you’re looking for a more mid-range alternative, the Performance line of fixed and motorized screens offers high-end picture quality at a competitive price. The Performance line offers more options than the Sensation line, including two screen materials (Gamma HD and Lunar Gray HD) as well as three widescreen ratios, in addition to standard 4:3. Motorized screens come equipped with IR receiver and are designed to be installed easily.

Reference Series Projection Screens Are the Best of the Best

The Reference series of fixed or motorized screens are the top-of-the-line option for those looking for optimum quality and customization. Fixed Reference screens are fully customizable, from the choice of the full range of our screen materials, including Black Diamond, sizes in increments of one inch from 70 inches to over 200 inches, and front or rear projection. With our Reference motorized, you can choose high or low voltage and customize the size of the black drop. With the fixed screens, you can choose between flat and curved. You can even customize the radius of the curve to fit your exact specifications.

We’ve seen nothing but raves in the recent reviews of our Black Diamond II projection screen material. Customers love it. Installers and dealers love it. Professional reviewers for websites and magazines have been blown away by the Black Diamond II screen.

Our demo at the CEDIA Expo was universally praised. And it’s no surprise. The Black Diamond II revolutionizes the projection screen market. The demonstration that seems to be the most effective for reviewers is the comparison of ambient light reflected off the Black Diamond II screen compared to a gray or white screen with similar gain.

Lowering the Black Diamond screen over an image projected on a white or gray screen, you can instantly see the difference. The room gets noticeably darker as the screen lowers into place, covering up the standard screen underneath. A white screen will reflect the light from the projector, not just back at the audience, but throughout the room. That light is, in turn, reflected off the walls and ceiling, and bounced back to the screen, causing the image to grow dimmer. With the Black Diamond II screen, the light is directed back toward the projector, not dispersed throughout the room. This keeps the room dark and presents a high contrast, high quality image to the audience, while still retaining a respectable viewing angle.

One DIY alternative to purchasing a projection screen is to paint the wall, either with regular matte wall paint or with a special paint designed for this purpose, such as Goo. Some DIYers choose to paint a piece of fabric or other material with the screen paint instead of the wall itself, and then mounting this as you would a screen. While a good projector will be able to create a decent image on any uniform surface, the texture of the wall can reduce your image quality. With the relatively low cost of a good projector screen these days, purchasing a real projector screen can be a more cost-effective option than some DIY alternatives.

What You Get When You Purchase a Screen Instead of Using Projection Screen Paint

Screen Innovations’ HD screens, for example, have the least pronounced texture available today. This ensures that the image you’re projecting will not be unnecessarily dulled or blurred by the texture of the screen. The color of the screen is another important variable. White and gray screens are still the industry standard. A white screen will necessarily have lighter blacks. A gray screen will give darker blacks, but also grayer whites.

Using screen paint instead of using a screen can make it harder to get the right gain for your projector. Using a screen, painted or otherwise, that isn’t the right gain can result in hot-spotting or excessive light scatter, both of which can greatly reduce image quality.

Color is one variable that will affect the picture. As you probably know, the black part of a projected image is actually just an area where no light is being projected. On a white screen, the black parts of the picture won’t be truly black, as the light from other areas of the projected image will bleed into the black space. To compensate for that, gray screens offer a darker base. This will give you darker blacks, but it will also give you grayer whites. For many people, this is a reasonable compromise.

Gain is another factor. Gain is the measure of light reflected off the screen compared to the reflected light of a base measurement (that reflected by a screen coated in a particular substance). Screens can be reflective, meaning they reflect light in every direction, like a mirror, or retroflective, where the light is directed back at its source and not diffused. The color of the screen affects gain in some ways, though it isn’t the only determining factor.

Another variable that you may not have considered is the texture of the screen. A marbled texture that you can see easily with the naked eye will distort the image projected on it, making it appear blurry or unfocused. Using an overly textured screen will result in a picture quality below that of which your projector is capable. Our HD screens are manufactured with the finest texture possible today. This results in a clearer, better image, no matter what projector you use.

Screen Innovations makes projection screens for home and business use. Our range of screens encompasses fixed, motorized, and manual screens in three product lines that offer everything from basic, entry level screens to state-of-the-art, fully customized screens that are changing the way people think about front projection viewing.

A Projection Screen Manufacturer That’s Also a Design and Development Company

In addition to manufacturing projection screens, we also design and develop screen material. Our Lunar Gray and Gamma HD screens set the standard when they first arrived on the scene. Now, we’re changing the industry again with the Black Diamond II. As with our other offerings, the Black Diamond II is getting rave reviews for its incredible picture quality, even in rooms with plenty of ambient light. That’s right. A Black Diamond II screen gives the same picture quality as an HD television in well-lit rooms.

You can get Black Diamond II screen material in our Reference series of fixed projection screens. The Reference series also offers other options, including five aspect ratios, flat or curved structure, and decorator options, including ten different frame colors. You can also choose your screen size in increments of one inch, from 77 inches to over 200 inches. In fact, you can design and request an entirely custom screen that is built exactly to your specifications, including size, material, and even the radius of the curve, ensuring that your screen will be perfect for your needs.

To find out more about our state-of-the-art screen materials, and our custom and standard built screens, please call +1 512-832-6939. We can also be reached by email at sales@screeninnovations.com  and through our web form http://www.screeninnovations.com/contacts/.

Our Reference series fixed screens can be color customized with decorator accent frames. These frames come in a variety of colors and textures, so you can match your screen frame to your interior design.

If you’d like a wood finish look to coordinate with your furniture or other wooden accents, consider the Maple, Red Oak, Cherry, or Mahogany finishes. If you prefer a more colorful frame, we have several shades of blue, red, neutral, and gray. For the more traditional, our textured velvet black frame will give your screen a clean, classic look.

If you don’t want the screen to be visible at all, when not extended, consider the Reference motorized screen. Available in a wide range of options, including custom black drop size, this screen can be flush mounted in the ceiling so that the screen chassis is invisible. If you change your mind, and want the chassis to be externally mounted, you can customize the chassis with the same accent plate color choices. All the necessary materials for flush-mount and external mounting come standard with the Reference motorized package.

Projection Screen Frames Are Just One Customization Option

Reference series screens are also available in a variety of screen materials, sizes, and aspect ratios. This allows you to ensure that your screen will be an exact match to your needs. To design a custom screen, you can use our Screen Wizard tool to create a screen that will match your room and your projector perfectly.

If you want even more custom options, you can contact one of our representatives, who can help you build the exact screen that you need. You can email your questions or requests to sales@screeninnovations.com. You can also send us questions through our secure web form http://www.screeninnovations.com/contacts/ or speak with a representative by calling +1 512-832-6939.

Everyone who has shopped for a projection screen has heard the term “gain.” Gain is the measure of light that is reflected off the screen. Whether a high or low gain is the best choice depends on your set up.

The texture of the screen fabric is another important factor in picture quality. A highly textured fabric will result in a blurry-looking image. Our HD screens are made with the subtlest texture possible to ensure that your image is as good as it can be.

Our Revolutionary New Projection Screen Fabric: Black Diamond

Our Black Diamond screens, however, offer something entirely different. The reflective nature of the Black Diamond screen gives a high-quality image in less-than-perfect light conditions. It does this by absorbing non-direct light and reflecting direct light from the projector back at its source.

Most screens reflect light from wherever it comes from, and bounce it around. This means that ambient light will decrease your picture quality. It also means that the projector itself will increase the light level in the room, which can also lead to a decreased image quality. The Black Diamond screen absorbs light from indirect sources instead of reflecting it, which means that ambient light, and the light reflected off the screen from the projector, won’t ruin the picture.

Our Reference series of fixed projection screens offers you the option of our full range of technology-defining screen materials, including our Lunar Gray HD, our Gamma HD white screens, and, of course, Black Diamond.

Since we started this company over five years ago, we’ve worked hard to deliver not only quality projection screen manufacturing, but also, to develop new technologies that would improve the field. We’ve consistently led the way with new advances in projection screens and we’ve continued to strive to create new screen materials that will improve your image quality.

As projectors get better, screens have to improve as well, or the improvements in projectors will be useless. One of the ways we’ve helped move the screen industry forward is with our HD screens. These screens are designed to work with digital projection at greater than 1080p. The newest projection advances in image quality won’t be lost on our screens. Our HD screens are available in a variety of colors and gains to best suit your particular projector.

Our latest innovation is the Black Diamond screen. It’s a revolutionary concept that returns incredible results, even in less-than-ideal lighting situations. With white and gray projection screens, ambient light can wash out and dull your projected image, no matter how bright the image is. With the Black Diamond, ambient light isn’t reflected the way it would be with a white or gray screen. Instead, the light is essentially absorbed, keeping the room darker than would be possible with a standard screen. It also allows you to get a good, visible image in a room with windows or other light sources.

Keeping Our Projection Screen Company Moving Forward

As a projection screen company, we’ll continue to push the technology forward, making sure that the advances in projectors don’t outstrip our screens. If you’d like to learn more about our state-of-the-art screen materials, you can email questions to sales@screeninnovations.com  or submit inquiries through our web form http://www.screeninnovations.com/contacts/.  We’re also happy to answer questions or take orders over the phone.

Adding a projection screen to your home theater or business can change the look of the room. To better adapt your new screen to your existing decorator choices, Screen Innovations offers several accent plate and frame options.

Projection Screen Accents That Complement Your Space

Our Reference series of fixed and motorized projector screens can be changed to fit your home or office décor with decorator accent plates. This allows you to install a fixed or externally mounted motorized screen without having to worry about how it will fit in with the color scheme of your room.

With the Reference series motorized screens, the décor plate can be used when the screen is externally mounted to give the chassis a sleek look that will complement a professional or home theater look. You can also flush mount the chassis in the ceiling to make it virtually invisible, if you are concerned about how an installed screen will change the look of the room.

With our Reference series fixed frame, you can also choose from ten different designer colors or four wood finishes for the frame. These options include wood veneer finishes in Red Oak, Cherry, Mahogany, or Maple. Our textured velvet frame accents are available in a range of color options including Denim and Royal Blue, Merlot and Burgundy, Clay and Taffy, and various shades of gray, black, and neutral tones. These screen accents will ensure that your Reference series fixed or motorized screen will blend seamlessly with your existing color palette.

Changing the look of your screens frame is only one of the many personal customizations that you can choose from with our Reference series of screens.

Screen Innovations makes several, cutting edge screen materials that offer superb image quality. Our HD screens, including the Lunar gray and Solar white screens, combine super-fine texturing with smart light reflection to give you great results. The product we’re most excited about, though, is our new Black Diamond screen material. Here’s why.

The Black Diamond Projection Screen

The Black Diamond does two things remarkably well. The first is to reduce the amount of ambient light in a room. When you’ve got the lights turned down low for home movie viewing, you’ll still get plenty of ambient light. This is caused by the light from the projector being reflected off the screen and scattered throughout the room. That light, in turn, bounces off the walls and ceiling and comes back at the screen, which reduces the sharpness of the image. This type of light scatter is unavoidable with a white or gray screen, but not with a Black Diamond screen. The Black Diamond screen “absorbs” ambient light, instead only reflecting light back toward the source: the projector. This results in a darker room and a better quality image.

The other aspect of the Black Diamond that makes it special is that other ambient light sources do not affect the image quality nearly as much as they would with a white or gray screen. This is due, again, to the screen’s ability to absorb light that isn’t being directly aimed at the screen from a front angle position. The image quality of the Black Diamond screen, even in a room full of uncurtained windows, is comparable to that of an HD television in the same light conditions. We should mention that there is no glare like with glass or lexon.
