- Abstract
- The characteristics of the rear-projection screen are examined in detail. Numerical constants are provided that define these characteristics for practical screens and convert foot-candles to footlamberts. A procedure is given by which an optimum screen may be specified for a specific application. Human factors are discussed and numerical values provided for viewing brightness and contrast for various types of projected material.
