Chief Adds Pull-Out Accessory to Fusion

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — May 17, 2024 — Da-Lite, a brand of Legrand | AV, is pleased to introduce Myriad™, an all-new ceiling recessed, wall, and ceiling mounted electric screen system. Available with 16’ (5 m) of the SightLine™ cable drop feature, which gives the impression of a floating screen, Myriad is offered in sizes from 14’-16’ (4-5 m) wide in 16:9 HDTV and 16:10 Wide formats. Tensioned products are available with HD Progressive 16K ready and Parallax® Ambient Light Rejection screen surfaces. The product is ideal for large meeting spaces, conference centers, lecture halls, large classrooms, houses of worship, and hotel ballrooms. 

“Not only is Myriad an entirely new product, but it delivers on customer demand for expansion of our SightLine feature,” said Wendy Cox, Director, Product Management Da-Lite. “Myriad gives dealers an unprecedented level of flexibility, by simplifying ordering, empowering them to expedite installations and allowing them to make the necessary screen adjustment on the job site.”

The Da-Lite Myriad Conceal (coming late May 2024) ceiling recessed screen, designed with ceiling trim in place to conceal the rough opening, eliminates the need to complete additional trim work once the screen is installed. The crowd-favorite two-stage installation option affords the screen case to be installed during the rough-in construction stage and the screen surface assembly during the finishing stage.

The Da-Lite Myriad Reveal (now shipping) wall- and ceiling-mounted screen features versatile and adjustable brackets that accommodate either mounting preference. Installation ease is found with the built-in case leveling [±.5” (12.7 mm) vertically], and centering [±6” (152.4 mm) horizontally] adjustability. An innovative weighted bar doubles as a black closure door, which blends in with the border when the screen is fully deployed, and the bar smoothly rotates to white to blend into the sleek waterfall case aesthetic when retracted. 

Available on all Myriad models, Da-Lite’s SightLine thin cable drop feature elegantly suspends the screen surface and eliminates black drop – the black border above the projection screen. This eliminates the extra step of measuring and specifying drop distance before ordering. With SightLine, vertical placement of the screen can be variable as the cables accommodate a range of drop distances up to 16’ (5 m) (standard) between the ceiling and the top of the screen for much faster ordering. What’s more, this feature creates usable space above the viewing area to preserve architectural interests and provides the opportunity for camera/speaker placement. 

The Da-Lite Myriad Electric Screen System is now shipping. More information is available here.
