Why a Screen Is Important

Traditional movie theaters work like this: a projector fires an image at a white screen, the screen then reflects the light, and you can see the picture. Projectors are beneficial because they offer big images when in use and take up little space when they're off.

But why can't you project an image onto a wall? Because your projector can only do so much. A screen helps make the image brighter and fuller, so the colors pop and the movement is clear.

Modern screens are more advanced than a simple white canvas. Many offer light-rejecting, high-contrast materials that make your images easy to see even in ambient light situations. That means you can enjoy content without turning all the lights off in your room.

The Benefits of a Retractable Screen

A retractable, motorized screen is a perfect addition to just about any space. Here are a few reasons you may consider one:

Save Space: The primary benefit of a retractable screen is to save space. When you're done using it, you can tap a button, and the screen will roll up. Most TVs don't offer this capability, and hiding them can be costly and complicated.

Transform Any Room: The beauty of a screen is that it instantly transforms any room into a great place for movies. Whether you want to upgrade the AV in your living room, remodel the garage into a "man cave," or make the attic a fun game room, a retractable screen is a way to start.

Integrated Control: When you install a smart automation system, you can control multiple devices with the touch of a button. That includes your motorized screen. When commands are grouped together, you can lower the screen and motorized shades, dim the lights, start the projector and sound system, and even adjust the thermostat with a single tap.
