- Abstract
- Ways of comparing the reflecting and light-distribution properties of several theater-screen surfaces are described. Comments are made on instruments (integrating spheres, goniophotometers, spectrophotometers and brightness meters) used in comparing screen surfaces. Lenticular-screen design and “gain” formulas are presented with examples of their use in estimating a screen's performance. Data on white, “silver” or aluminum, beaded, pearl and lenticular screens are included.
