LCDProjectors1

An LCD projector is a light, compact, and portable projector. It uses a halogen lamp to project a broad spectrum of colors split by a prism into the three component colors at an ideal color temperature. The images it projects is made up of pixels that act act as light shutters that control the amount of light passing through. It contains three separate LCD panels for the red, green, and blue components of the video signal. Generally, an LCD projector can produces clearer images in a dark room, but there are some models that can be used in dimly- or even well-lit room depending on the unit's brightness rating.

An LCD projector has a few disadvantages. The pixels in the images can be visible in a large screen. A burned out pixel can also be noticeable onscreen.  Its light source needs to be replaced every so often.
