      It’s not a projector. It’s an lcd tv screen backlit by a projector. The tv lcd is still what produces the image

        So a projector, just like DLP. That’s the backlight technology in this case. Instead of an LCD screen being integrated into the projector itself, it’s on a larger screen in front of it. Same difference as far as lighting technology goes.

          Not at all. A dlp projector doesn’t use an lcd panel to project an image, it’s completely different technology. You may be thinking of lcd projection, but either way you’re wrong.

              I actually think that’s exactly what you’re doing. I’m not saying what this guy did with an old projector and lcd screen is practical, but it is interesting and pretty creative. One things for sure though, he didn’t just create a projector using an old projector
