Color Wheel
The color wheel spins at 178 Hz and consists of four segments, one for red, green, blue and
white.
DMD
A Digital Micromirror Device (DMD™) is an array of tiny, tiltable mirrors, each of which cor-
responds to an individual pixel. The mirrors are orientated by applying an electrical signal and
can take up alternatively two positions: tilted +12° and -12°. If they are in the +10° position
light is reflected to the screen, otherwise it is reflected away.
The projector employs a 0.7" single-chip DMD. The chip has 1024×768 active mirrors (XGA).
DMD is a trademark of Texas Instruments Incorporated.
Electronics
The electronics comprises graphics and video signal processing electronics as well as the func-
tionality to control the projection engine.
The electronics converts the image signals of the graphic card into control signals for the
DMD’s. The image is electronically mirrored in the process and the reversal of the image fol-
lowing the deflection mirror is thus compensated.
Data Cable
The digital display information is transmitted via a cable directly from the controller to the
DMD control electronics.
Lens System
The projection lens system has been especially developed for OVERVIEW CDG67-DL. It proj-
ects the image resulting of the DMDs via the deflection mirrors onto the rear of the screen
module.
Fan
A fan in the housing ensures that the unit is sufficiently cooled. A second fan positioned be-
neath the lamp lift optimizes the air circulation.
Deflection Mirror
Due to folding up the optical path by a mirror the installation depth of the
O
VERVIEW CDG67-DL projection unit is only 940 millimeters.
