[EPV Screens] DarkStar Max UST-FR

The DarkStar® Max UST-FR Series is a non-invasive motorized free-standing electric projection screen that features a Ceiling/Ambient Light Rejecting (CLR®/ALR) Ultra-short throw Projection material. The design features motorized “scissor-backed” cross risers that raise and lower the material.

Matte white screen materials don’t work well with the lights on and that limits them to dark room presentations. The DarkStar® UST material mitigates the washout effects of ambient light while boosting color saturation, contrast and black/white dynamic range. To minimize the projection footprint, the material is specially formatted tab-tension reinforced to work specifically with UST (ultra-short throw) projectors.

“Elite helped pioneer rollable, lenticular materials for motorized UST screens, and the new DarkStar Max UST-FR is a potential game changer for the emerging laser TV projector category,” said Rob Sabin, ProjectorCentral editor-in-chief. “Integrators can place the screen housing directly on a low-boy credenza and, critically, also now have the option to drop it into cabinetry that can hide the screen, projector and even audio components completely out of sight until needed.”
