PainFree Projection™ - The dnp Supernova Screen

dnp Front Projection Screen Test - Surface Comparison Test | PainFree Projection

dnp - Visual Experiencednp Front Projection Screen Test

Looping below you'll find the results of our tests with the Supernova Screen. These are un-retouched photos shot with available light in our studio. We also have some shots of the Supernova Mobile in use at real events. No enhancements have been made to the photos - they're exactly what you would see if you were here. This is the real deal - a technology that works as advertised!!!

Ambient Light Surface Comparison

Ambient Light Surface Comparison

This is a controlled-light experiment between Matte White and the Supernova Mobile. A 3,000 lumen projector is projecting a special PowerPoint show with side-by-side images of two typical presentation slides and a couple of full frame photos. Ambient lighting is from three 50-watt overhead track lights about 3' in front of the screen, pointed directly at it. The first image in the loop is the control, showing two identical images under identical lighting conditions. In each case you'll see the Supernova Screen provides superior black levels and contrast in the most severe room lighting conditions.

High Gain Surface Comparison

This experiment shows the two types of Supernova Screen material, the 23-23 high gain on the left, and the ISF-certified 08-85 wide angle on the right. Behind and above them is the matte white screen so you can see how washed out the image would be without Supernova. (The loop starts with the reference image for comparison.)

You'll note in the straight-on shot (#2) the left screen is almost twice as bright, but in shot #3, taken off to the side about 45-degrees from center, they are about the same. The 08-85 has superior off-axis viewing, but 23-23 is brighter when within 23-degrees of the projector axis. These samples are shot under the same lighting conditions as above, and are using the small Supernova One rigid screen samples we have.

Application Images

Application Images

Here are some shots of our Mobile screen in action at real events. The most remarkable thing about it is how unremarkable it is! Images look like they're supposed to. Note the white panels or walls in the various images. Without Supernova, the dark areas of the image would be as white as that white panel. If you want a projected slide to look like it does on your laptop, the only solution is the dnp Supernova Screen!

Ambient Light ExampleNote that this technology absorbs ambient light from above. Supernova can be positioned directly under spotlights, fluorescents, chandeliers or any other overhead light source. Strong light sources from windows to the side or behind the audience may affect performance. Sunlight reflections from parked cars or low-angled spotlights will behave like projected light and reduce contrast.
