Front-projection screen with subsurface diffusion targets
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A front-projection screen comprising:
- a first layer having a first surface and a second surface, the first surface having a first refractive element;
a first diffusion target at the second surface, adapted to provide diffuse reflection to at least a portion of first radiation that is incident upon the first refractive element within a range of incident angles; and
a first absorption target, adapted to absorb at least a portion of second radiation incident upon the first refractive element outside of the range of incident angles.

17. A method comprising:
-
projecting first radiation onto a refractive element on a first surface of a first layer within a range of incident angles;
transmitting the first radiation through the refractive element to a diffusion target at the second surface; and
diffusely reflecting, at least a portion of the first radiation. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)

21. A method comprising:
-
forming a refractive element on a first surface of a first layer; and
coupling a reflective diffusion target to a location on a second surface of the first layer to receive radiation incident upon the refractive element within a first range of angles. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25)

26. A system comprising:
-
a refractive element forming device adapted to form a refractive element on a first surface of a lens layer; and
a printing mechanism adapted to print a diffusing target to receive radiation incident upon the refractive element within a first range of angles, the printed diffusion target being positioned at a second surface of the first layer. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29)
