A rear projection monitor having a housing with reduced depth is disclosed. Images produced by liquid crystal active matrices are illuminated by a light source. The images are enlarged and projected by a projection lens having a large rear focus. A mirror reflects the projected images onto a viewing screen. The mirror is positioned between 36.degree. and 45.degree. in relation to the viewing screen. The back of the housing is adjacent to and slopes at the same angle as the mirror. The depth of the projection monitor is between 33% to 41% of the diameter of the viewing screen.

Projection monitor

A system for quickly measuring and displaying in real-time a variety of performance characteristics of optical components such as lenses. The system is video based and is under the control of a computer which uses a windowing software program to provide the user with a graphical user interface by which the various components of the system and test lenses may be characterized and operated on through functions available via the interface. Lens performance measurements such as line spread and modulation transfer functions can be graphically and numerically displayed in real-time and/or recorded on other output devices or as files in computer memory.
