A 0.5 mm Fresnel lens gathers the light from the
projector and directs it at a right angle through the screen. As the light
exits the screen on the audience side, a diffusion medium redistributes
the light evenly in all directions—up, down, left, right and center.
Superior resolution and color contrast.
An exceptionally wide viewing cone in both the
horizontal and vertical axes.
The unique features of the Vortex provide important
advantages and benefits.
The Vortex is designed to be used with single lens projectors.
Projected light is collimated, then diffused evenly, making the Vortex
well suited for use in videowalls and rooms with tiered seating patterns.
Charcoal grey tint provides superior color contrast, even under harsh
ambient light.
The diffusion medium is in the acrylic, so it can’t be scratched or
damaged.
The Vortex is available in sizes up to and including 160" diagonal.
Can be used in our Retro/QA (portable rear projection systems),
MultiScreen System, RPX/Complete or any of our VideoWalls in conjunction

SUMMARY - Draper Vortex Rear Video Projector Screen
The Vortex is a marriage of the best features of two rear screen technologies— optical and diffusion. A 0.5 mm Fresnel lens gathers the light from the projector and directs it at a right angle through the screen. As the light exits the screen on the audience side, a diffusion medium redistributes the light evenly in all directions—up, down, left, right and center. It features superior resolution, superb color contrast, an exceptionally wide viewing cone in both the horizontal and vertical axes, extraordinary center-to-corner brightness ratio, and uniform brightness without hot spots. It is designed for use with single lens projectors and the charcoal grey tint provides superior color contrast even under harsh ambient light. Gain 2.0
