Elite Screens AR115H-CLR3 Aeon CLR 3 115" UST Projector Screen

The Elite Screens AR115H-CLR3 Aeon CLR 3 is a 115-inch fixed-frame projection screen engineered around a specific optical problem: overhead ambient light destroying contrast on conventional screens. The CLR 3 material uses an angular-reflective lenticular structure that accepts light from a low-angle UST throw (projector positioned at the base of the screen) while rejecting light arriving from overhead. The published figures — 90% overhead light rejection and 75x contrast improvement versus matte white — represent the core engineering rationale for the entire product. The 0.8 gain is a deliberate design choice, not a limitation; it's the result of optimizing the material for directional selectivity rather than raw brightness. At 16:9 with a 100.2" × 56.4" active viewing area, this is sized for a primary home theater installation, not a portable or multipurpose setup.

For home theater integrators and enthusiasts building around a UST laser projector, the AR115H-CLR3 solves the single largest installation constraint: the need for room darkening. The CLR 3 material makes a 115-inch image viable in a living room or dedicated space where blackout curtains aren't feasible or desirable. The zero-edge aluminum split-frame construction keeps the visual footprint clean — the screen reads as a large flat-panel display on the wall rather than a traditional bordered projection screen. The passive screen surface is format-transparent: 4K, HDR, and active 3D content pass through without degradation. The non-negotiable requirement is UST projector compatibility — this screen is not a general-purpose surface. It is a precision optical component matched to a specific projector geometry, and should be purchased only alongside a confirmed UST-compatible source.
