While I'm not much into this industry of laser projectors, I can't find any non-galvo scanners that can scan like CRT TVs did, but the laser beam and it's baffling why not. I found only one company in Russia who builds their in house scanline scanners and their projectors are very impressive. It's like low resolution video projector but with the brightness of a galvo scanner laser projector. This is why its confusing why nobody sells such scanners, the effect is too good, I'll argue will have more usage than galvo laser scanning for things such as concerts and outdoor advertisement. Sure, for lower resolution than video projectors but as bright as lasers there's LED walls but the installation of such laser projectors would make them a better option than LED walls in many situations and a good competitor to them.
Any idea why there isnt none? Could even take HDMI as video input with a proper controller. Perhaps a patent troll?
I wish I could find the site of that russian company I just mentioned but I can't for the life of me remember where I found them and what it was called.
The only thing remotely similar is Microvision but they make scanline scanners for pico projectors not large outdoor projectors.
Once more I'd like to mention I think such a scanline scanner would sell like pancakes. And existing laser projector manufacturers would only need to change their designs by swapping the scanner and scanner amps and inputs, they could keep the rest of the optical system.
