Designing the projective screen // Material testing

Following the preliminary, one layer experimental studies into clear / translucent materials for surface projection; recording levels of Light permeability, Reflectance, Tactile material quality, results have shown that clear / opaque plastic sheeting material samples were highly reflective which visibly diminished the clarity of the projected image. The stripped samples tested favourably added to the distorted effect but due to their lightweight and thin nature, effective image stabilisation could not be achieved.

A selection of the material samples which were tested together with their results may be found below:
