Screen Innovations Installer

Hybryd Systems installs Screen Innovations projection screens and motorized shades for homes across the greater Phoenix area, built into dedicated theater rooms and everyday living spaces.

What does Screen Innovations do well?

Screen Innovations is best known for ambient-light-rejecting screen material, built to hold picture contrast and color in a room that is not fully dark, which matters far more than most people expect once a projector goes into a real living space instead of a windowless theater. Motorized screens drop from a ceiling recess or a housing above a media wall and retract out of sight when not in use, which keeps a great room from looking like a dedicated theater the rest of the time. The same motorized approach carries over to their shade line, giving a way to control daylight in a room without a separate set of hardware from a different manufacturer. Across the lineup, the screens are made to be matched precisely to a projector and a room, not sold as a generic surface.

What does Hybryd install with Screen Innovations?

We design the screen and the projector together, sizing the screen to the room and the throw distance rather than picking one off a shelf, and we typically pair Screen Innovations with a projector such as Epson depending on the brightness and resolution the room calls for. In a dedicated theater room, that usually means a fixed or motorized ambient-light-rejecting screen built into the wall design from the start. In a great room or living space, a motorized screen recessed into the ceiling or hidden behind a soffit lets the room serve a second purpose without becoming a theater full time. Folded into Control4, dropping the screen, dimming the lights, and closing the shades happen as one scene from a single button, rather than several separate remotes.

Screen Innovations and rooms that get real sun

Phoenix-area homes tend to have big windows and open great rooms, which is exactly the situation ambient-light-rejecting screen material was built for. A standard white screen washes out badly in a room with daylight coming in, while Screen Innovations material is designed to hold contrast even with some ambient light in the room, which means a great room does not have to be blacked out to get a watchable picture during the day. The motorized shade line does double duty here too, cutting daytime heat and glare through the same windows that make ambient light a problem for a projector, controlled from the same Control4 scene as the screen and the lighting. It is a practical fit for how many Valley homes are actually laid out, with light-filled living spaces rather than closed-off theater rooms.

Services That Use Screen Innovations

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a fully dark room for a good picture?

No, not with ambient-light-rejecting screen material, though a dedicated theater room with some light control still gives the best result. Screen Innovations makes that material specifically for rooms that get daylight.

Can the screen hide when it is not in use?

Yes. Motorized screens retract into a ceiling recess or a housing above the media wall, so a great room does not look like a theater the rest of the time.

Does Screen Innovations make anything besides screens?

Yes, a line of motorized shades. We install and program those into Control4 alongside the screen and the lighting, so they can move together in one scene.

How do you decide which projector to pair with the screen?

We size the screen and choose a projector together based on the room's brightness, throw distance, and how the space gets used, rather than picking either one on its own.
