Fully revised, this book provides up-to-date coverage of the optical and mechanical systems in electronic projection displays, taking into account major new developments in the technology. It includes new material on microdisplay projection technology, including light sources for projection displays, liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS), display colour gamuts, electronic cinema, projection screen design, and video signal formats. The book provides practical examples of projection display applications and sets out models for predicting the performance of optical and mechanical systems. It also presents information about projection displays at the component, subsystem and system level, with detailed discussions of human factors associated with the displays and an expanded glossary of projection-related terms and acronyms.
Matthew S. Brennesholtz, Insight Media, Pleasantville, NY Dr Brennesholtz is currently a Senior Analyst at Insight Media in the USA. In this position, he works on a variety of topics relating to display systems, including supply chain issues, emerging display technologies and new applications for microdisplay technology. He has also headed research projects on illumination systems for projection displays, covering lasers and conventional lamps, and on a new type of liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) backplane. In addition to this, he has authored 18 conference and journal papers, and the first edition of Projection Displays (Wiley, 1998) with Edward Stupp. Previous to his employment at Insight Media, Dr Brennesholtz has had positions at Philips and General Electric, and he currently holds 23 patents. Edward H. Stupp, Stupp Associates, Display Consultation, Jackson, NJ Edward Stupp currently runs his own consulting company, advising on display technology for industry. He authored the first edition of Projection Displays (Wiley, 1998) but is not directly contributing to the revision of the second edition. He will be listed as a co-author due to his involvement in the first edition.
