Summary of D.I.Y. Cheap Curved Projector Screen- for the Flight Sim!
The video demonstrates how to create a DIY curved projector screen for flight simulation at an affordable cost. The screen is made from 3mm MDF, with ribs forming the base structure, and is run by two BenQ 100 TST projectors. The screen provides a full 180-degree view, with software called Fly Elise warping the output to create a curved effect. The construction involves cutting and assembling the ribs, attaching a frame and skin to create the screen, and painting it with a DIY screen goo. The video highlights some limitations of the setup, such as the screen door effect and the need for frequent projector recalibration. The presenter showcases the immersive experience of using the curved screen for flight simulation and discusses potential upgrades to improve performance.
### Methodology
- Construct ribs from 16mm MDF.
- Assemble ribs to create the base structure.
- Attach frame and skin to create the curved screen.
- Paint with homemade screen goo.
- Ensure projector alignment for optimal performance.
