This is because some rooms (especially living rooms) are just not well-suited for projectors. Most users are unable to solve the ambient light problem with proper research and even after spending a lot on heavy curtains. Ambient light usually poses a problem for most first-time projector owners. Moreover, ambient light is not only a daytime problem as the light from a projector can scatter and bounce off of lightly-coloured walls to create ambient light even in an otherwise dark room. Ambient light tends to reflect off of a white screen to create glares and wash out the projector’s image unless it is viewed in a pitch-black room (like the theatres). However, the problem here is with the screen as a regular one not only reflects the light from the projector but also every other light present in the room. Unlike TVs, projectors bounce light off a surface (usually a screen) rather than beaming light directly into the user’s eyes.

Drawbacks of a regular white screen Projectors function exactly in the opposite way that a TV does. Here we will discuss the importance of ALR screens. ALR screens can cost you four times more than the regular white screens. ALR screens help in improving image quality in unfavourable theatre environments (especially in rooms that have multiple unwanted lights), however, they are way more expensive compared to the normal projector screens. Ambient Light Rejection or ALR screens are gradually becoming popular as projector owners want to enjoy the best home theatre experience.
