Most people when they see this transparent projection screen or Holo Screen in action ask the same question, how in the world does it do that? Well in short this rigid projection screen is what we call intelligent plastic because there are all kinds of tiny micro lenses embedded in the screen during the casting process that allow it to accept and retain the image being projected onto it.
Now because the transparent projection screen itself is almost completely clear in color there is a significant amount of light transmission that is passed through the screen so you will want to place the projector at an angle down towards the screen so that you do not blind the viewers as the light is coming thru the screen. It is also recommended that you add approximately one third the light output or lumens when using a holographic or clear rear projection rigid or clear film screens due to the high light transmission.
