Impressive. Is the contrast ratio really low or is it the ambient lighting?

Just saw these on your site the other day. They look sweet, and yeah was gonna ask about the contrast ratio in the picture, so glad that's not an issue. Would you be able to give a ballpark figure for the screen in the picture? I've finally shifted my cash flow in a favourable direction, but I've still no idea whether this sort of thing would be feasible for me at the moment.

Same, I'd like a price please. Thanks Chris! What's the aspect ratio (what width/height combination)? I'm in USA.

Here is a recent video from the install of the Pixelwix Geo Screen with the Evotek sim at atlanta.

Custom screen costs from $25 per lin foot of alloy.
Edge blend materials cost from $11 per sq foot.
So some quick math will give you a price estimate for your screen sizes.

Im pretty certain now that im going to go rear projection with 3x BenQ W710st.

Im thinking about going all out and going a mad curved screen setup but im scared lol I have no idea.

I will have to do some research about all this edge blending, hot spots, screen materials, sizes, software and any compatibility issues there may be.
