Since I don't use color in my experiments, I'm exploring whether ProjectionDesign could supply a customised version of this projector with a clear colour wheel. This would give me 3x256=768 graylevels, as well as eliminating any "rainbow effect".Uncustomised, these projectors cost around $16k each, and I'm afraid any customisation just for me will be prohibitively expensive. However, I thought I might be able to convince ProjectionDesign that there could be a scientific market for such a product. If you would potentially be interested in buying one or more such projectors for use in your experiments, please let me know, along with how many you would buy.--Jenny Read Office: +44 191 222 7559Royal Society University Research Fellow Mobile: +44 794 401 5796Henry Wellcome Building for Neuroecology, Fax: +44 191 222 5622University of Newcastle, Framlington Place mailto:J.C.A.Read@...Newcastle upon Tyne, NE2 4HH, UK. http://www.staff.ncl.ac.uk/j.c.a.read_______________________________________________visionlist mailing list
