Digital Light Processors
DLP projectors use a technology called Digital Light Processors. This technology uses millions of microscopic mirrors to transmit video images onto a projection screen. The device containing the microscopic mirrors is called a Digital Micromirror Devise – and only produces images in black and white. This device works together with a color wheel that moves and reflects the colors off the mirrors. The mirrors tilt so that it creates different light patterns on the screen. Choices Most home video projectors use either DLP technology or LCD technology – and there are many brands to choose from. In determining the best DLP projector for you, you need to determine your price range and your needs. Do you need a portable model, do you need a professional model or a home model, do you need a cheap projector or can you afford to splurge on a more expensive model? Many models have the same features, so sometimes the only thing that makes the decision is price. One way to find information is by reading DLP projector reviews – which are plentiful either on the Internet or in electronic magazines. Reading a DLP projector review will give you a perspective other than the company’s perspective. Once you have reviewed and have decided what price range you can afford and what you will use the DLP projector for, you can begin to decide what type of projector you will need. Movie theaters use projectors that have DLP technology and now you can bring that same technology home with a DLP home theater projector. DLP computer projectors can be used with most computers to bring what is on the computer screen to a bigger screen – whether it be schoolwork or computer games. Most projectors are set up to work from many venues – computer projector, video gaming consoles, DVD player, and satellite or cable – so, this eliminates the need to purchase more than one projector. DLP projectors can be used with your child’s favorite gaming console (or yours) to make even more fun! You will also need to decide what accessories you will need. The single most important accessory is the DLP projector lamp. This is a replacement part that can be purchased and installed by the customer – and will need to be replaced once you have used your projector around 2000 to 3000 hours. DLP projector bulbs are usually the same thing as the lamp – just called different names by different companies – so the same applies to these. DLP projector screens can also be purchased – although most brands claim to show a quality picture on a white wall – but, to get the full effects of the home theater experience, I would recommend the projector screen. Now, to find the best deal for your DLP projector. Again, a little research is called for in order to find the price that fits your budget. If you shop around, you can find DLP projectors wholesale or from resellers who buy them in bulk in order to give their customers the best discounts. You may find the best deal on your DLP projector in Canada, because there are many wholesale sites there, but remember that duty taxes may offset the savings. Always look for the DLP projector that offers the best quality for the price.
