Our team at IPS Perforating, Inc. specializes in perforating materials and products of all kinds, which is a fancy way of saying we poke hole in things. Perforation offers a surprising array of benefits in many different industries. For example, movie theaters can benefit from using perforated projector screens. In this article, we’ll go over a few of the advantages our perforated projector screens have to offer to help you decide if they are right for you.
- Prevent Moiré Patterns – One benefit of perforated projector screens is the way they are designed to prevent visual artifacts such as moiré patterns. For those who are unfamiliar with the term, moiré patterns occur when one pattern is laid over another, which produces an illusory third pattern. If you’ve ever laid two mesh screens on top of each other or noticed that someone’s striped shirt looked weird on a high-definition TV, you’ve seen such a pattern before. Our team can perforate your screens in such a way that you won’t have to worry about these patterns distracting your viewers.
- Prevent Light Penetration – Another problem that often plagues projection screens is excessive light penetration. If the material is too sheer, light will pass through it and throw a second image on the wall behind, causing the image on screen to look blurry. Perforated screens, which are made of solid, non-woven material, prevent this problem and keep your images looking crisp and distinct.
- Ensure Correct Color Temperature – A third benefit of perforated projection screens is the way they keep the color temperature of the projected image accurate. Woven white screens can shift the color palette of the image, making it skew too far to one part of the color spectrum.
