							Brightness. The balance of light and dark shades in an image.
Composite video. A type of video signal that encodes picture,
luminance, and synchronization information so it can be carried in one
signal.
Contrast. A measure of the tonal differences between the highlights
and shadows of an image. In a high-contrast image, light areas are very
bright and dark areas are very dark, with relatively few levels of gray
between white and black. Contrast is decreased by adding grays.
NTSC. A 525-line video broadcast format developed by the National
Television Standards Committee. NTSC is widely used in North
America, Mexico, and Japan.
PAL (Phase Alternation by Line). A 625-line video broadcast format
used in Western Europe, India, China, Australia, New Zealand, and
parts of Africa. 
						

							Point. A measurement of drawn or printed objects. One point equals
l/72 inch.
Resolution. A measure of the amount of detail contained in an image.
Resolution can be measured in dots per inch or in pixels. Image
sharpness and clarity improve as resolution increases.
RGB. A type of color scheme that defines color as percentages of red,
green, and blue.
S-Video. A type of video signal used in S-VHS videotape formats. It
transmits luminance and color separately.
SECAM (System Electronique pour Couleur Avec Memoire). A
625line TV system used in France, Eastern Europe, Russia, and parts
of Africa.
Sleep mode. A power-saving feature in which the projector’s lamp is
turned off when the projector has not been used for 30 minutes. In
sleep mode, only a minimum amount of the projector’s circuitry
remains on.
VGA. Video Graphics Array. A high-resolution display adapter that
provides a variety of video modes.
