Because film projectors require high-definition picture performance, they have always been the market for xenon light sources. The traditional ultra-high pressure mercury lamp source is not bright enough, but the life of the xenon lamp is not strong, so the projector light source cost is high.
With the advent of laser sources, the projector market is arguably one of the first to follow. Although the laser source is expensive, the price of the film projector itself is high, so it is not very sensitive to the price.
The laser pointer light source has a long life, and is currently a monochromatic light source. The cost of the two-color laser and the three-color laser will be reduced in the future, so that the color advantage of the laser light source projector is sharper. At the same time, the brightness of the laser source has a reserved space. With the upgrade of the laser technology, the future laser projector can upgrade the light source with better efficiency.
According to statistics, in the first quarter of 2018, the market for laser digital film projectors sold more than 4,000 units, and the total number of screens in China was only 50,000. It can be seen that laser products have taken an absolute advantage in the process of PK with traditional light source projectors.
Laser projectors have opened up a state of universal popularity, and most of the new movie screens in the future are laser screens. This trend has not been reversed, and as the number is increasing, the price of the laser source is expected to decrease.
The popularization process of laser projectors will continue, especially the old-fashioned xenon projectors can also replace the laser light source. The proportion of laser light sources will be further enhanced in the future, and the market will become more difficult due to the smaller market.
