Myriad™: A New Dimension in Projection Screens

Da-Lite has launched an electric screen that is set to enhance viewing experiences: the new Myriad™ electric screen system is designed to be ceiling-recessed, wall-, and ceiling-mounted. What sets it apart is the SightLine™ cable drop feature that goes up to 16′ (5 m), giving the illusion of a floating screen.

Impressive Size and Quality

The Myriad™ system comes in varying sizes, from 14′-16′ (4-5 m) wide, perfectly fitting 16:9 HDTV and 16:10 Wide formats. The tensioned products sport HD Progressive 16K-ready and Parallax® Ambient Light Rejection screen surfaces. The integrated anchor points for roller suspension make maintenance very easy. Myriad™ caters for large meeting spaces, conference centres, lecture halls, classrooms, houses of worship and hotel ballrooms.

Wendy Cox, Director, Product Management at Da-Lite, commented on the new product, stating:

“Not only is Myriad an entirely new product, it also delivers on customer demand for the expansion of our SightLine feature. Myriad gives dealers an unprecedented level of flexibility by simplifying ordering, empowering them to expedite installations, and allowing them to make the necessary screen adjustments on the job site.”

Innovative Design Features

The Myriad Conceal ceiling-recessed screen comes with ceiling trim in place to conceal the rough opening, eliminating the need for additional trim work post-installation. The Myriad Reveal wall- and ceiling-mounted screen has versatile and adjustable brackets, which make installation straightforward and stress-free.

SightLine™: No Need for Measuring

The SightLine thin cable drop feature, available on all Myriad models, suspends the screen surface and removes the black drop, leaving no need for measuring and specifying drop distance before ordering. This allows vertical placement of the screen to be adjusted, accommodating a range of drop distances, and creates usable space above the viewing area.

Availability

The Da-Lite Myriad Reveal Electric Screen is currently available for shipping. The Myriad Conceal is set to be released later in 2024.
