Offset describes the path of the projected light once it exits the projection lens. 0% offset describes an optical module that sends light equally up and down after it exits the projection lens. 100% offset describes an optical module that sends the top of the image up and keeps the bottom of the image coincident with the projection lens axis. 100% or higher (i.e. tilted up) offset is most common in order to avoid sending the bottom part of a projected image into the surface on which the product is resting. However, 0% offset may be preferred for some applications and 0% offset optical designs allow for thinner optical modules.
