Abstract
Abstract A transmission-type projection screen comprising a support having thereon a layer of a binder having microcapsules dispersed therein, said microcapsules containing particles of a material having a refractive index different from that of said binder. The transmission-type projection screen is one wherein the refractive index of said material differs from the refractive index of said binder by a factor of at least 0.02.
