How the pico projection system will be used in the end product is fundamental in determining the required optical module specifications.
Use Case Considerations | Optical Module Specifications Impacted |
---|---|
Size of the product and space available for projection system | Size, power consumption, thermal management solution |
Ambient lighting environment | Brightness, image size, DLP IntelliBright™algorithms |
Battery-powered operation or plugged in to a power outlet | Brightness |
Distance from the projection surface and image size target | Throw ratio |
Type of video content (for example, movies, signage, PowerPoint presentations, and so forth) | Resolution, brightness, contrast ratio, color management |
Projection surface shape (flat or curved) | Depth of focus |
Orientation (distance, angle, position) between the optical module and the projection surface | Throw ratio, keystone correction, offset |
Operating environment temperature | Thermal management solution |
Maximum allowable bill of materials cost | Brightness, resolution, throw ratio |
This is just a sample of the type of questions that should be answered by the product developer to better define the required specifications of a DLP Pico projection optical module.
