Projection Screens

This documentation covers all projection screens offered by VPixx Technologies. Assembly instructions for specific screens are given in the relevant sections.

Product Overview

As a courtesy service for our PROPixx customers, VPixx Technologies offers a range of projection screens. Our screens feature robust plastic frames paired with high-quality flexible projection material, ensuring outstanding image quality and durability. Aluminum stands and feet are adjustable to accommodate a range of image heights and screen locations.

We offer a line of universal in-bore screens for MRI facilities to ensure the largest possible screen size for your participants. These screens include handles for easy placement and sturdy plastic feet to support the screen against the bore.

Screens come flat-packed and are easy to install. For standing screens, floor markers are provided to ensure reliable placement and re-placement. If you need a custom screen size for a unique space, contact our sales department, and we will assist you.

All VPixx screens are made from MRI- and MEG-safe materials and are suitable for behavioural and neuroimaging environments. To learn more about different material types (2D vs. 3D) see our guide to 3D projection with the PROPixx projector.

Cleaning and Maintenance

The stand's plastic and aluminum frame can be cleaned with disinfectant wipes or a soft cloth sprayed with a cleaning solution.

Flexible projection screens should not be treated with commercial disinfectants, as harsh solvents can damage the material. Instead, we recommend wiping them with a soft cloth and gentle soap, such as hand soap. Grease spots can be spot-cleaned with a water-based detergent and warm water.
