Portable Projectors have become a sensation and the reason for that is simple: It reduces the space required for projecting content. Moving onto the next level of technology we are chasing to make more and more space available in our surroundings. Instead of opting for large houses, people are inclined towards buying flats for living. We usually chase for the exact amount of space that we need. Talking about science, which is the hottest topic in physical science at the moment? Nano Technology.
This is how the world works. We are trying to increase our comfort level by doing everything possible. People would prefer carrying a Portable Projector over a large projector which gives us a similar output. The days of messy cables, large boxes, less space have met a full stop. We have successfully entered the age of Portable Projectors which has room for a lot of improvement. At iCodis, we are utilizing this room and improving this technology to ease your life.

Type of Portable Projectors
1. Standalone Portable Projectors: These Portable Projectors are connected with an external device via any cable. Usually, USB and HDMI cables are used for connection purposes. These external devices provide the video signal to Portable Projectors for projecting content on any flat surface. Generally, these Portable Projectors have in-built rechargeable batteries.
2. Embedded Portable Projectors: These Portable Projectors are embedded in an electronic device. Portable Projectors derive power and output from the electronic device. When a Portable Projectors is embedded in a mobile phone then the resultant device is known as ‘Projector Phone.’
3. Media Player: These Portable Projectors do not need an external system for deriving input. They have memory card slots for external memory. These memory devices provide input to Portable Projectors which in return projects content. These Portable Projectors eliminate the use of cables.
4. USB Projector: These Portable Projectors are connected to an external system with the aid of USB cable. The USB cable connects Portable Projectors with an external system which helps Portable Projectors to gain power and input. As power is derived from external systems, USB Projectors are battery-free projectors. The absence of in-built batteries gains USB projectors a tag of being the smallest types of Portable Projectors.
The technology used in Portable Projectors
As we’ve specified in other posted articles, three main technology used in portable projectors are DLP, LCoS, and LBS.
• Digital Light Processing (DLP): DLP by Texas Instrument is a technology used in Portable Projects. This technology uses a white light source and few filtering techniques with the help of tiny mirrors to project content.
• Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCoS): LCoS uses a white light source to project content. Small LCDs are used to project content by controlling how many light casts upon a designated pixel as well.
• Laser Beam Steering (LBS): This technology was proposed by Micro vision. LBS uses different technology compared to DLP and LCoS. Optical principles are used to coalesce three different colored laser beams.
