dB— decibelA unit used to express relative difference in power or intensity, usually between two acoustic or electric signals, equal to ten times the common logarithm of the ratio of the two levels.

Diagonal Screen— A method of measuring the size of a screen or a projected image. It measures from one corner to the opposite corner. A 9FT high, 12FT wide, screen has a diagonal of 15FT. This document assumes that the diagonal dimensions are for the traditional 4:3 ratio of a computer image as per the example above.

DLP®Digital Light Processing™Reflective display technology developed by Texas Instruments, using small manipulated mirrors. Light passes through a color filter is sent to the DLP mirrors which arrange the RGB colors into a picture projected onto screen, also known as DMD.

DMD— digital Micro- Mirror DeviceEach DMD consists of thousands of tilting, microscopic aluminum alloy mirrors mounted on a hidden yoke.

Focal Length— The distance from the surface of a lens to its focal point.

Frequency— It is the rate of repetition in cycles per seconds of electrical signals. Measured in Hz.

HDMI— High Definition Multimedia Interface, carry both uncompressed high definition video along with digital audio and device control data in a single connector.

Hz — Hertz, unit of frequency.

Keystone Correction— Device that will correct an image of the distortion (usually a wide-top narrow-bottom effect) of a projected image caused by improper projector to screen angle.

Laser pointer— A small pen or cigar sized pointer that contains small battery powered laser, which can project small, red (typically), highly intensity beam of light that is immediately very visible on the screen

Maximum Distance— The distance from a screen the projector can be to cast an image that is useable (bright enough) in a fully darkened room.

Maximum Image Size— The largest image a projector can throw in a darkened room. This is usually limited by focal range of the optics.

Minimum Distance— The closest position that a projector can focus an image onto a screen.

NTSC— National Television Standards Committee. North American standard for video and broadcasting, with a video format of 525 lines at 30 frames per second.

PAL— Phase Alternating Line. A European broadcast standard for video and broadcasting, with a video format of 625 lines at 25 frames per second.
