G-106

g. The mechanical stability in optical system will be important. It should be rigid with less thermal drift. A

projector with big ZOOM and lens shift will be more convenient for the installation

h. Ultra short throw ratio projector is not suitable for curved screen display due to too much image

position distortion. It will increase geometry alignment and cause lower video quality. The focus issue

in the projector is also one of the concern.
