With the arrival (1875) of the Southern Pacific RR, it became a center for the dairy and logging industries, but , Conn., the publishers of the industry newsletter Microdisplay Report, has unveiled its Front and Rear Projector Database. The database, includes information on CRT-, LCD-, and DLP-based systems, both front- and rear-projection configurations. The database contains specifications, pricing, availability and current product status on a great many projection products. For example, there are over 175 rear-projection and over 400 front projection models. "We may not have every model, but we certainly have products from all the major players," said Insight Media president, Chris Chinnock. "More importantly, we track all of the announced new products, to give users a heads-up on what is coming over the next 6 to 12 months." Al Davis For other persons named Al Davis, see Al Davis (disambiguation). Allen "Al" Davis (born July 4, 1929 in Brockton, Massachusetts) is an American football executive, who currently serves as the president and managing general partner of the NFL's Oakland Raiders. , Sr. director of sales and marketing for Microdisplays at Three-Five Systems (Tempe, AZ), was an early user of the pre-publication database. "We found it extremely useful in our marketing efforts," said Davis. "It really helped us get our arms around all of the models and their specifications so we can develop microdisplays and projection engines that fit the market need." The database has over thirty fields of information covering the basic data sheet specifications, pricing history, ship dates and current product status. While much of this information is available on data sheets and press releases, some of it is not. To fill in this missing data, Insight Media has spent a great deal of time in direct contact with these companies in order to offer an up-to-date and nearly complete database. This makes it far more valuable for users. Pricing for the front projector Noun 1. front projector - a projector for digital input projector - an optical instrument that projects an enlarged image onto a screen segment of the database is $995, or $1,995 with quarterly updates. The rear-projection portion of the database costs $750, or $1,495 with quarterly updates. Both database segments together cost $1,495, or $2,995 with quarterly updates.
