Projectors

With the technological advancements in the modern era many new innovations and technologies are
coming into the world on a daily basis. The one of these technologies or innovations are the “Projectors”
that are used for the casting the images or the videos on the large scale. Simply we can say that if we
want to cast the images or the videos on a very large area for the large number of audiences so that for
that purpose, we use the projectors. It is very difficult to manage the large screens everywhere, so the
projectors help us in this regard as they are easy to carry, less power consuming than the TV screens or
the large screen LED's. There are many different kinds of projectors in the modern time. Each of them
has its own features and characteristics. Each of them has their own pros and cons. Here we will look on
to two important kinds of projectors that are Laser Projector and LED projectors.

Laser Projectors
Laser projectors are the projectors that use laser rays or simply lasers to cast images on the screens or
walls or on the sheets that are used for the projecting purposes. These projectors are basically used for
some presentations, for videos, and for some gaming purposes. In many universities or colleges these
projectors are present in the theaters in order to cast the presentations or we can say that any
educational material. The laser projectors are long lasting and do not need any bulls or some kind of
luminescent material for projection. The only thing that they need is a dim light in the room or the place
where we want to cast the image or some video so the audience or the people can have a clear and
better view.

LED Projectors
On the other hand the images in the LED projector are created by the diodes which are basically known
as the light emitting diodes so that's why these are also called the LED's. Basically these LEDs are less
consumable towards electricity and are long lasting. They are very energy efficient. These projectors are
ideal for educational environments and the images created by these projectors are somewhat brighter
than those created with the laser projectors. The casting by these projectors is very much like real ones
as it uses the best lighting and shadow patterns.

Laser Vs. LED projector, which is better?

Here we compare both type of projectors that is LED projectors and the laser projectors and we will see
their different features and characteristics, and, on that basis, we will tell which one is better and in
which circumstances which will be our best choice for use.
Brightness
The brightness of both the projectors is somewhat good but the difference lies in the quality of the
image, or the videos created but if we talk in the depth then the laser projector has an edge over the LED
projector in regard of the brightness. The images created by the LED projectors are of good quality on
the other hand the image created by the laser projectors are somewhat less in quality than that of LED
projectors but have level of brightness. Laser projectors employ laser diodes as a light source while on
the other hand the LED projectors mainly rely on the array of LEDs.

Color contrast
If we talk about the color so there come many significant differences between the LED projectors and the
laser projectors because each one-off is used for different purposes and in different circumstances. The
color contrast is that feature which distinguishes both the projectors considerably. Here the LED
projectors have an edge over the laser projectors big because the color contrast of LED projectors is
good. This is because the LED projectors produce more vibrant color and deep black patterns. So if you
want to go for a better-quality result then the LED projectors will be a good choice.

Usage Duration
If we talk about the usage of both the projectors, then the LED projectors are of longer life as compared
to the laser projectors. They are efficient as they consume less energy or electricity so here the LED
projectors again have an edge over the laser projectors.

Installation
LED projectors are ahead of the laser projectors in several regards. Firstly they are cheaper, secondly no
cooling or somewhat proper ventilation is required and lastly their life is longer than the laser projectors.
The setup and installation of the LED projectors is also quite easy than that of laser projectors. Most of
the people also look for this feature so that they can easily install the projector for their use.

Cost and Budget

Both LED projectors and the laser projectors are deliberately used for casting purposes however there is
a difference between their costs and budgets. The LED projectors are widely used in the home theatres
or the places where which is used for some special kind of presentation or we can say that the places
that have some small gathering while on the other hand the laser projectors are used in the large areas,
in the large halls, in the large theatres where there's a huge number of audience. So the laser projectors
are expensive than that of the LED projectors because of their demand, usage and the good image
quality.
Pros of LED Projectors:
The pros of the LED projector are as follows:

Longer Lifetime
The first and the foremost advantage or the benefit of the LED projector is that it has a longer lifespan as
compared to the traditional lamps or we can say that the other type of projectors so that results in the
low maintenance also in the cost that is required for its maintenance over time.

Energy Efficiency
The second benefit of the LED projectors is that these projectors are energy efficient than those of
traditional projectors because they are consuming power is less so it can cost less with time as compared
to the other types of projectors.

Less heat generation

The LED projectors produce less heat as compared to the other projectors. With this benefit the usage of
LED projectors in small rooms increases significantly. Here we can say that the heat loss is directly
proportional to the energy efficiency because we have seen that the energy consumption of LED
projectors is less, so their heat generation or heat loss is also very less, so these two features are linked
with one another and also rely on each other in this case.

Low Cost
If we talk about the cost of the LED projectors so the prices of LED projectors are relatively less as
compared to the laser projectors. Due to this feature it becomes easy for the persons or the
organizations to go for the LED projectors because they can easily get it from the local market.

Cons of LED Projector:

With some pros of the LED projectors there are also some cons or the disadvantages or we can say that
the drawbacks of the LED projectors, so here we look on some of the cons of the LED projectors.

Low Brightness
The first drawback of the LED projectors is that they have a lower level of brightness so making it difficult
to see in the bright rooms or the rooms having a great amount of life or in the outdoor events and
settings.

Accuracy of color
The color accuracy or the color quality of the LED projectors can decrease over time so with the passage
of time as the time passes it can cause serious effects in its color. The color reproduction can be affected
if you see the in the long term so the color production or the color quality can be degraded in case of
LED projector.
Pros of Laser Projector:
Coming to the pros of the laser projector. Have are some of them.

High Brightness
The first benefit that is given by the laser projector is that they have the high level of the brightness as
compared to the other types of projectors which makes them easy to use in the bright rooms or some
outdoor events or settings. The level of brightness makes the laser projectors often more useful than the
other types of projectors.

Longer Lifetime
In regard to the lifetime, both the laser projectors and LED projectors show a good response towards the
lifespan. The laser projectors also have a longer lifespan than the ordinary traditional lamps, so which
makes the maintenance cost lower with time.

Color accuracy
The color accuracy of the laser projectors is greater than that of the LED projectors because it provides
us with the different color palettes which are not present in the case of the LED projectors, so this
feature is important for the applications running in the digital cinema or the applications that is used for
the medical imaging.

Fast start-up time

The laser projectors have the fast startup and the turn off time. It can be started and turned off instantly
unlike the other lamps or projectors that requires some time for the cooling for this the shutdown.

Cons of Laser Projector:

With some pros there are also some cons of the laser projectors so here we will look at some of the cons
of the laser projectors

Higher cost
The laser projectors are mainly expensive than those of the LED projectors. With this, these types of
projectors can only be used where there comes important work or where there are no budget
constraints.

The Design of Laser projectors

The design of the laser projectors is often very complex than those of the traditional and the other types
of the projectors so making it more difficult in repairing if anything goes wrong. The new person can face
challenges while dealing with the designs of these projectors.
Conclusion
Both the LED projectors and the laser projectors have their own pros and cons and their advantages and
disadvantages. The choice of selecting from among these projectors will depend solely upon the needs
of the user and in which circumstances the user is using which projector. The laser projectors are
basically fitted and used for the application that require the higher brightness level, the consistency and
accuracy with time while the LED projectors are used when we are dealing with the energy because
these are very energy efficient and have a lower cost. So this is all about the LED projectors and the laser
projectors.
