Here is a demonstration of a LCoS (liquid crystal on silicon) Pico projector. The LBS is dimmer, grainier, and has that annoying beam scanning that keeps running down the screen. Look at how inferior the Microvision LBS pico projector is on the right, compared to the DLP pico projector on the left. Viewing Experience: This reviewer's same experience is also evident in this YouTube video. For others like myself I find myself squinting at the image and anything short of a quick 10 minute clip becomes tedious and tiring. For those with sensitive eyes the beam scanning is actually noticeable which is annoying. The Microvision laser projector is a 15 lumen projector - with the lights on you see virtually 's extremely hard to watch a video on the Microvision projector. A reviewer at compared the Microvision ShowWX (LBS) and the AAXA P4 (DLP LED) This power level translates to a dimmer image. As a result, LBS projectors typically use a Class 2 laser, which limits the power at < 1mW. No one wants a high powered laser beam to accidentally blind their eyes. Safety and Brightness: LBS projectors have serious safety concerns that don't apply to the other types of projectors such as the Digital Light Processing (DLP) and Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCoS) processors. Additionally, there are safety, brightness, and viewing experience issues with LBS. In my earlier article on Microvision, I discussed the high cost of LBS. Microvision's pico projection technology is based on Laser Beam Scanning (LBS). With its continuous cycle of hype/raise/spend money, its share count increases and value is driven down.Īs I stated in the conclusion of my previous article, I would come out with a follow-up that would have more details about the pico projector technology and more information about Microvision.Ĭomparing Microvision's LBS Projector Versus The DLP And LCoS Projectors However, I believe Microvision is a good long term short. Those readers who jumped on the opportunity could have enjoyed gains of 10-15%. In my article about Microvision ( NASDAQ: MVIS) on Thursday, I alerted Seeking Alpha readers to a juicy shorting opportunity. Please be aware of the risks associated with these stocks. Editor’s Note: This article covers a stock trading with less than a $100 million market cap.
