Split into two parts, the 2,500 lumen projector itself with a 10,000:1 contrast ratio, and the box of connections and [...]
If you remember back to your school days you can likely remember a time where the teacher brought out a projector so that something could be displayed on a pull-down screen.

Pretty much a standard 800×600 resolution projector capable of 24-bit colour images 90-inches by 30-inches, its redeeming feature is an iPod dock which not only allows it [...]
As anyone who has tried to digitally manipulate a photo of George Bush into da Vinci’s The Last Supper will know, accurately distorting perspective can be a tricky thing to do. w-h-i-t-e-v-o-i-d’s Christopher Bauder and Till Beckmann, however, view a hurdle as a challenge (as do hurdlers, of course), and have come up with a [...]
