Keystone Adjustments What is Keystoning? “Keystoning” occurs when a projector is aligned non-perpendicularly to a screen, or when the projection screen has an angled surface. The image that results from one of these misalignments will look trapezoidal rather than square. Digital Keystone Adjustments By adding a special, selectable, algorithm to the scaling, some new projectors are able to alter the image before it reaches the projection lens. The result is a squared image, even at an angle.
Keystone Adjustments Automatic Keystone Adjustment Automatic Keystone adjustment is enabled through a levelsensor on the projector. As the projector is tilted the image is automatically scaled to match the angle / degree of tilt. This feature is turned “on” from the factory. Manual Keystone Adjustment Users can choose to adjust the keystone themselves to match circumstances where the automatic keystone adjustment is ill-suited.
