US-based projection screen manufacturer Screen Innovations has announced that it plans to launch its new Black Diamond II screens, which are specially designed to be used in bright conditions, at the Bristol Show on 26 February.
This second generation Black Diamond material allows large screen front projection in environments where previously only plasma and LCD could be used. Already available in the US, the Black Diamond II 1.4 combines a positive gain material with a wider viewing angle, so allowing midrange projectors to be used in bright environments for general viewing applications such as living rooms, games rooms, meeting rooms, swimming pools and even outdoors.
UK pricing hasn’t been announced yet, but in the US they’re going for $2,700.
