Screen design for lightcrafter projector

There's a picture available of a screen design for the TI lightcrafter projector; is there an accompanying PDF of the design that can be released?

Hi,
While I have not yet redesigned the backprojection to use the lightcrafter by default, I have designed some adaptor pieces that can be attached to the existing design to reposition the mirrors to the appropriate positions and angles for the Ti lightcrafter 2010. These pieces can be lasercut from the same 1/4 inch acylic that is used for the rest of the back projection assembly. We've tested it and it looks good to us. I will upload these designs with some instructions within the next day or so.

Thank you! And just to clarify, is this for the TI DLP 3010 as recommended in the instructions or the TI lightcrafter 2010? The latter also appears to potentially not be available for purchase through TI.

I'm afraid this is for the 2010, not the 3010 (athough that has been used successfully by another group). I'm not sure what the throw and elevation is on the 3010

I'm sorry to see that TI might be discontinuing the 2010. I will look into this and see if there is a suitable replacement and ask about the lifecycle of the other lightcrafter EVMs. For now I will not upload the 2010 designs, as I would rather arrive at a more sustainable long-term solution. email me if you'd like them anyway.

Hey Noah, looks like you guys have a projector curse-- as soon as you pick one they stop making it! We'd still appreciate the 2010 design and I'm curious whether the Italian group who used the DLP3010 might have sent a design? If so we might try to implement their approach. Sincerely, -Anish
