The Projection Supply Chain Report (formerly called the Projection Industry Report) provides 239 pages of technology, business, product and strategic news stories. Each news story is fact checked and provides active links to web site and contact personnel. It is similar to the news stories that appear in our monthly newsletter, Microdisplay Report, but covers a seven-month time span. Only about 20% of these news stories have appeared in Microdisplay Report.

This is the third semi-annual edition of this report. In the future, the report will be issued quarterly, starting in February 2003.

The Projection Supply Chain Report - Autumn 2002 covers developments since our last update in March 2002. It is a comprehensive snap shot of the state of the projection industry and its supply chain. News from major trade shows such as NAB, SID, InfoComm, PISC, Microdisplay, CEDIA, EuroDisplay, and CEATEC are included as well as several other shows. It also includes news gathered from on-site visits, phone interviews, e-mail correspondence, web data and press releases. This information is organized, analyzed and assembled into a written report format that includes many product photos and graphics. The report is delivered as a pdf file with an index to aid in searching for information.

The report covers the entire supply chain for projection systems as well as finished projection products. The report is organized into the following sections: · Analysis · Microdisplay Devices · Microdisplay Manufacturing · Optics & Engines · Electronics · Illumination Systems · Screens & Films · Rear Projection TV · Home Theater · Business Projection Systems · 3D Projection Systems · Video Cubes · LED/Laser Projection Systems · Strategy and Business Developments

The Projection Supply Chain Report is written for industry professionals who need a clear, concise yet comprehensive update on the events that are shaping the future of the projection industry. It serves as a unique and invaluable reference tool for all levels of management, sales and marketing staff, product managers, market research analysts, technologists and manufacturing personnel who need to stay current on recent industry events as they chart their strategic direction in an ever?changing industry.

The report finds:

· Liquid Crystal On Silicon (LCOS) microdisplay-based systems continue to struggle to reach market, whereas those using High-Temperature Poly-Silicon (HTPS) LCDs or Digital Light Processing (DLP) chip sets are doing well

· LCOS hopes to win big in rear-projection TV, but the early lead goes to HTPS and DLP systems

· Smaller microdisplay panels are here to lower costs and better illumination systems are arriving to increase efficiency

· Even screen technology is finally getting the attention it needs to obtain lower-cost, high-performance systems

· Enormous innovation in LCOS-based engine design and system manufacture is underway which could make it very competitive

· Electronics integration is moving ahead nicely with System on Chip designs and image warping capabilities all enabling lower system costs

· Consumer home theater and the education market are key new opportunities projection makers are targeting with new products

· Lowering system cost is a key driver for all and most producer are moving to establish Chinese production operations

· Wireless and wired LAN solutions for business projectors are here and will soon move into the home

· LED-based projection systems are now on the edge of viability so expect more action in this area soon
