| + | ===== Patented, award-winning technology ===== | ||
| + | The technology behind Discoscan, originally developed by AVI, has won two U.S. and International Patents, as well as two ILDA Awards for Technical Excellence. This same technology is used in major planetariums around the world. Pangolin has now made this impressive effect available to projector manufacturers who want to give their clients something extra. | ||

| + | ===== How to use Discoscan ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Discoscan is for OEM manufacturers. A laser projector needs to be modified or designed specifically to use the Discoscan lens. The laser beam going to the projector can be direct or can be fiber-fed. The galvanometer scanners will need to be close to the Discoscan’s entrance surface. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Discoscan works with any type of laser -- single color or full-spectrum RGB, and there is no known power handling limitation with the Discoscan lens. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Technical specifications ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Weight: 12 ounces | ||
| + | * Height: 2 inches; Diameter: 3.5 inches | ||
| + | * Distance, mount to rear element: 1.25” | ||
| + | * Distance, mount to front element: .75” | ||
| + | |||
| + | The Discoscan lens enlarges both the scan angle and the size (divergence) of the laser beam. This means that beams and graphics will be somewhat “fatter”. But this generally improves safety as well. | ||
