Rear Projection HDTV


Rear projection technology appeared in the market at the late 70s for the first time but was hardly as innovative as we know it now since it still could not produce as sharp images as the ordinary CRT models. However, in the last decade, modern rear projection HDTV screens appeared, impressing with their quality and style. They are still thicker than the revolutionary LCD screens, but can be mounted on a wall saving space.

What is the rear projection? It’s the method of producing the image inside the screen cabinet and then projecting it via a system of mirrors and lenses directly to the screen surface – what we are used to watch and consider as screen. The technology now is enhanced with a built-in high definition spec that allows a very detailed, sharp and clear image, making the rear projection HDTV screens very popular as they combine now the highly demanded high resolution and definition capability with very approachable price.
