Concrete Rear Projection Screen
“The screen consists of concrete with embedded optical fi bers, ar-ranged as pixels, capable of trans-mitting natural as well as artifi cial light. The light-admission points are on the back of the screen where the fi bers are positioned. The light, or the picture, is displayed in pixels on the front. The light source can be a projector emitting pictures or fi lm footage, or a window emitting natural daylight.”
