Projection that holds up in full daylight, feature lighting for the cross and a rewired altar for a sanctuary ringed by stained glass.
The sanctuary is lined with ten stained-glass windows, each about ten feet tall. They fill the room with daylight, which is exactly what washed out the existing projector screen. Covering them with shades would have fixed the glare but taken away the room's character.
We replaced the old screen with five ambient-light-rejecting (ALR) panels, custom-sized for the space and mounted to brackets on the original lath and plaster walls in about three hours each. The picture stays vivid with the lights on and the windows uncovered.
The panels are paired with an Epson PowerLite long-throw laser projector that can fill an image up to 500 inches, running on a laser light source rated for 20,000 hours with no lamp changes.
Floor-to-ceiling LED strips, with custom-sized lighting behind it, now frame the wooden cross that greets everyone as they arrive. Davidson Electrical Services also added 120-volt receptacles under the stage, so the pastor and members can plug in without running cords across the altar.
