The Use of HID White Light in Projection
Having been working quietly in the background, Ceravision has now developed various different variants
of the microwave powered, electrodeless lamp system, with product platforms covering from Visible light
to UV radiation. The white light systems are attracting interest from markets ranging from Projection
to General lighting, Medical lighting to Fibre Optic distribution systems, and the UV products are pulling
in customers for colour graphic ink curing, as well as for Water and air sterilisation. Power ranges for
the different lamp platforms now vary from 40 Watts to 200 Watts with solid state power sources, and from
150 - 5kW with magnetron sources. The use of HID white light in Projection continues to be a major
opportunity, but this new technology also offers unique benefits to rear illumination of LCD-based digital
signage.
