George Walter Reflects on 25 Years of DLP Evolution

In the latest issue of Systems Contractor News, Digital Projection’s George Walter takes a deep dive into the 25-year journey of DLP technology—from its early days to its current cutting-edge capabilities.

From large three-chip systems to today’s advanced single-chip RGB Pure Laser projectors, DLP has seen remarkable progress. One of the most significant improvements: the elimination of the distracting “rainbow” effect, made possible by moving beyond the traditional color wheel configuration.

Here’s a snippet from George on that topic from the SCN cover story:

As technology advances, the latest evolution in DLP projection is the introduction of RGB pure laser technology in combination with single-chip DLP projectors. Traditional lamp-based projectors require color wheels or phosphor-based light sources to generate colors. While effective, these methods introduced certain limitations, such as potential color separation artifacts and mechanical noise.

With RGB pure laser projection, individual red, green, and blue lasers are used as direct light sources. As a result, RGB lasers produce more vivid, true-to-life colors, achieving nearly 100% of the Rec. 2020 color gamut—the widest color space available in consumer displays. Lasers have a much longer lifespan compared to traditional projection lamps, reducing maintenance costs and enhancing durability.

Without a spinning color wheel or high-wattage lamp, RGB laser projectors generate less heat and operate more quietly, making them ideal for home theaters and professional environments. And because RGB lasers don’t rely on color wheels, the risk of color separation artifacts is completely removed. That means no more rainbows.

Digital Projection Honors Military Service and Team Support

Digital Projection proudly supports team members who serve in the U.S. military, exemplified by Charles Alexander, Lead Service Engineer, who joined the company in 2003.

A U.S. Army Reservist and former U.S. Marine, Charles balances his military duties with his career at Digital Projection—a feat made possible through the company’s flexibility and commitment to service members.

When Charles was deployed to Germany last year for Defender 24, the largest U.S. Army training exercise in Europe, he saw firsthand how rare it is for reservists to have the kind of employer support he receives. Inspired, he nominated his supervisor, Mark Fuell, for the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) Patriot Award.

On June 27, 2025, ESGR’s Brad Prater presented the award to Mark at Digital Projection’s Kennesaw, GA headquarters, with Charles and colleagues in attendance. Mark humbly credited the entire team, reinforcing the company’s dedication to supporting those who serve.

Digital Projection is proud to uphold the values of the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) and remains committed to every team member—on and off the field.
