14. n Pre Installation Considerations When designing a projection room various factors need to be considered such as are you operating single or multiple units room size lighting and audience seating All these factors must be taken into account in order to achieve the best possible projector output The most important factor to consider is the human factor the audience Data gathered by answering questions like How far is the audience sitting from the display and From which angle will the display be viewed are important first questions to ask yourself when deciding where to place the display what type and size of screen to use Screen Size and Type gt Choose a screen size most appropriate for your lens and application Keep in mind if the intended use of the projector is to display text information the image size must be large enough to allow the audience to view all text clearly The eye usually sees a letter clearly if eye to text distance is less than 150 times the height of the letter Small text located too far from the eye may be illegible at a distance no matter how sharply and clearly it is displayed To fill a screen with an image the aspect ratio of the screen should be equal to the aspect ratio of the image The aspect ratio of an image is expressed as the ratio of its width to its height It is best to choose a screen with a screen aspect ratio most appropriate for your intended application Screens with an a
