Specifications



Maximum Dome Diameter |
Approximately 33 feet/10 meters. Brightness
is the main
issue, since the larger the dome,
the larger the surface area the light from the projector must cover. |
Resolution |
768 pixels across a diameter |
Field of view |
180 degrees, full sky. |
Pixels per degree of sky |
4.3 average |
Angle of Projection |
175 degrees |
Base Projector Brightness |
4000 Lumens with non-fisheye lens (Provided for comparison purposes with other systems. Actual brightness with a fisheye lens is significantly less due to not projecting the whole video rectangle and differing lens properties. Please contact us if you may be interested in a brighter system.) |
Contrast Ratio |
Approximately 900:1 |
Lamp life |
3000 hours The projector has two lamps which can be used one at a time, or both together for the brightest projection. |
Image Quality |
Some violet color separation is present, however we do not believe that this will distract from your teaching. This is a tradeoff in the interest of an affordable system and has been
improved from the previous model.
