Projection Distance and Lens Shift Range
The projection distance refers to the distance between the front of the lens and the projected 
surface.
The lens shift range represents the distance in percent (%) by which the lens can be shifted from 
the center of the projected image. The lens shift range is regarded as 0% when the point A in 
the illustration (point where a line drawn from the center of the lens and the projected image 
cross at right angles) is aligned with the center of the projected image and full width or full 
height of the projected image is regarded as 100%.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, 
Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 
02110-1301, USA. Everyone is permitted to copy and 
distribute verbatim copies of this license document, 
but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take 
away your freedom to share and change it. By 
contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended 
to guarantee your freedom to share and change free 
software--to make sure the software is free for all its 
users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s software and to any 
other program whose authors commit to using it. 
(Some other Free Software Foundation software is 
covered by the GNU Library General Public License 
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to 
freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are 
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to 
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this 
service if you wish), that you receive source code or 
can get it if you want it, that you can change the 
software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and 
that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions 
that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask 
you to surrender the rights. These restrictions 
translate to certain responsibilities for you if you 
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a 
program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give 
the recipients all the rights that you have. You must 
make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source 
code. And you must show them these terms so they 
know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright 
the software, and (2) offer you this license which 
gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or 
modify the software.
Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want 
to make certain that everyone understands that there 
is no warranty for this free software. If the software is 
modified by someone else and passed on, we want its 
recipients to know that what they have is not the 
original, so that any problems introduced by others 
will not reflect on the original authors’ reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by 
software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that 
redistributors of a free program will individually 
obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program 
proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that 
any patent must be licensed for everyone’s free use or 
not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, 
distribution and modification follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS 
AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, 
DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work 
which contains a notice placed by the copyright 
holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of 
this General Public License. The “Program”, below, 
refers to any such program or work, and a “work 
based on the Program” means either the Program or 
any derivative work under copyright law: that is to 
say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, 
either verbatim or with modifications and/or 
translated into another language. (Hereinafter,  
						

							67
translation is included without limitation in the term 
“modification”.) Each licensee is addressed as “you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and 
modification are not covered by this License; they are 
outside its scope. The act of running the Program is 
not restricted, and the output from the Program is 
covered only if its contents constitute a work based on 
the Program (independent of having been made by 
running the Program). Whether that is true depends 
on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the 
Program’s source code as you receive it, in any 
medium, provided that you conspicuously and 
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate 
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep 
intact all the notices that refer to this License and to 
the absence of any warranty; and give any other 
recipients of the Program a copy of this License along 
with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of 
transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer 
warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the 
Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work 
based on the Program, and copy and distribute such 
modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 
above, provided that you also meet all of these 
conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry 
prominent notices stating that you changed the files 
and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or 
publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived 
from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed 
as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the 
terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands 
interactively when run, you must cause it, when 
started running for such interactive use in the most 
ordinary way, to print or display an announcement 
including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice 
that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you 
provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute 
the program under these conditions, and telling the 
user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: 
if the Program itself is interactive but does not 
normally print such an announcement, your work 
based on the Program is not required to print an 
announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a 
whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not 
derived from the Program, and can be reasonably 
considered independent and separate works in 
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not 
apply to those sections when you distribute them as 
separate works. But when you distribute the same 
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on 
the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on 
the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each 
and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights 
or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; 
rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the 
distribution of derivative or collective works based on 
the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not 
based on the Program with the Program (or with a 
work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage 
or distribution medium does not bring the other work 
under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a 
work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or 
executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 
above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding 
machine-readable source code, which must be 
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above 
on a medium customarily used for software 
interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least 
three years, to give any third party, for a charge no 
more than your cost of physically performing source 
distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the 
corresponding source code, to be distributed under 
the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium 
customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as 
to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. 
(This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial 
distribution and only if you received the program in 
object code or executable form with such an offer, in 
accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form 
of the work for making modifications to it. For an 
executable work, complete source code means all the 
source code for all modules it contains, plus any 
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts 
used to control compilation and installation of the 
executable. However, as a special exception, the 
source code distributed need not include anything that 
is normally distributed (in either source or binary 
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, 
and so on) of the operating system on which the 
executable
runs, unless that component itself accompanies the 
executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by 
offering access to copy from a designated place, then 
offering equivalent access to copy the source code 
from the same place counts as distribution of the 
source code, even though third parties are not 
compelled to copy the source along with the object 
code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute 
the Program except as expressly provided under this 
License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, 
sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will  
						

							68
automatically terminate your rights under this 
License.
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, 
from you under this License will not have their 
licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in 
full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since 
you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants 
you permission to modify or distribute the Program or 
its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by 
law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by 
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work 
based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance 
of this License to do so, and all its terms and 
conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the 
Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any 
work based on the Program), the recipient 
automatically receives a license from the original 
licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program 
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not 
impose any further restrictions on the recipients’ 
exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not 
responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties 
to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or 
allegation of patent infringement or for any other 
reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are 
imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement 
or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this 
License, they do not excuse you from the conditions 
of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to 
satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this 
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a 
consequence you may not distribute the Program at 
all. For example, if a patent license would not permit 
royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those 
who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, 
then the only way you could satisfy both it and this 
License would be to refrain entirely from distribution 
of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or 
unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the 
balance of the section is intended to apply and the 
section as a whole is intended to apply in other 
circumstances. It is not the purpose of this section to 
induce you to infringe any patents or other property 
right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; 
this section has the sole purpose of protecting the 
integrity of the free software distribution system, 
which is implemented by public license practices. 
Many people have made generous contributions to the 
wide range of software distributed through that 
system in reliance on consistent application of that 
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or 
she is willing to distribute software through any other 
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.This section is intended to make thoroughly clear 
what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this 
License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is 
restricted in certain countries either by patents or by 
copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder 
who places the Program under this License may add 
an explicit geographical distribution limitation 
excluding those countries, so that distribution is 
permitted only in or among countries not thus 
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the 
limitation as if written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised 
and/or new versions of the General Public License 
from time to time. Such new versions will be similar 
in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail 
to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version 
number.
If the Program specifies a version number of this 
License which applies to it and “any later version”, 
you have the option of following the terms and 
conditions either of that version or of any later 
version published by the Free Software Foundation. If 
the Program does not specify a version number of this 
License, you may choose any version ever published 
by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program 
into other free programs whose distribution 
conditions are different, write to the author to ask for 
permission. For software which is copyrighted by the 
Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software 
Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. 
Our decision will be guided by the two goals of 
preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free 
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of 
software generally.
NO WARRANTY
BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE 
OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR 
THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED 
BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN 
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE 
COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER 
PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” 
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER 
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT 
NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES 
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A 
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS 
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF 
THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.
SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, 
YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY 
SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY 
APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN 
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,  
						

							69
OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY 
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS 
PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR 
DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, 
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL 
DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR 
INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM 
(INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF 
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED 
INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU 
OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE 
PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER 
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR 
OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE 
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New 
Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be 
of the greatest possible use to the public, the best way 
to achieve this is to make it free software which 
everyone can redistribute and change under these 
terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. 
It is safest to attach them to the start of each source 
file to most effectively convey the exclusion of 
warranty; and each file should have at least the 
“copyright” line and a pointer to where the full notice 
is found.
 Copyright (C)  
This program is free software; you can redistribute it 
and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General 
Public License as published by the Free Software 
Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at 
your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be 
useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without 
even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY 
or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See 
the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General 
Public License along with this program; if not, write 
to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin 
Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA.
Also add information on how to contact you by 
electronic and paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short 
notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of 
author Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO 
WARRANTY; for details type ‘show w’.
This is free software, and you are welcome to 
redistribute it under certain conditions; type ‘show c’ 
for details.
The hypothetical commands ‘show w’ and ‘show c’ 
should show the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use 
may be called something other than ‘show w’ and 
‘show c’; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu 
items--whatever suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a 
programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a 
“copyright disclaimer” for the program, if necessary. 
Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright 
interest in the program ‘Gnomovision’ (which makes 
passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

This General Public License does not permit 
incorporating your program into proprietary 
programs.
If your program is a subroutine library, you may 
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary 
applications with the library. If this is what you want 
to do, use the GNU Library General Public License 
instead of this License.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC 
LICENSE
Version 2.1, February 1999
Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, 
Inc. 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 
02110-1301, USA. Everyone is permitted to copy and 
distribute verbatim copies of this license document, 
but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. 
It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library 
Public License, version 2, hence the version number 
2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take 
away your freedom to share and change it. By 
contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are 
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and 
change free software-to make sure the software is free 
for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, 
applies to some specially designated software 
packagestypically libraries--of the Free Software 
Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. 
You can use it too, but we suggest you first think 
carefully about whether this license or the ordinary 
General Public License is the better strategy to use in 
any particular case, based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to 
freedom of use, not price. Our General Public 
Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the 
freedom to distribute copies of free software (and 
charge for this service if you wish); that you receive 
source code or can get it if you want it; that you can 
change the software and use pieces of it in new free  
						

							70
programs; and that you are informed that you can do 
these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions 
that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to 
ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions 
translate to certain responsibilities for you if you 
distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, 
whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the 
recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must 
make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source 
code. If you link other code with the library, you must 
provide complete object files to the recipients, so that 
they can relink them with the library after making 
changes to the library and recompiling it. And you 
must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we 
copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this 
license, which gives you legal permission to copy, 
distribute and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very 
clear that there is no warranty for the free library. 
Also, if the library is modified by someone else and 
passed on, the recipients should know that what they 
have is not the original version, so that the original 
author’s reputation will not be affected by problems 
that might be introduced by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the 
existence of any free program. We wish to make sure 
that a company cannot effectively restrict the users of 
a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from 
a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent 
license obtained for a version of the library must be 
consistent with the full freedom of use specified in 
this license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is 
covered by the ordinary GNU General Public 
License. This license, the GNU Lesser General 
Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, 
and is quite different from the ordinary General 
Public License. We use this license for certain 
libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into 
non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether 
statically or using a shared library, the combination of 
the two is legally speaking a combined work, a 
derivative of the original library. The ordinary 
General Public License therefore permits such 
linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria 
of freedom. The Lesser General Public License 
permits more lax criteria for linking other code with 
the library.
We call this license the “Lesser” General Public 
License because it does Less to protect the user’s 
freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It 
also provides other free software developers Less of 
an advantage over competing non-free programs. 
These disadvantages are the reason we use the 
ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in 
certain special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a 
special need to encourage the widest possible use of a 
certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. 
To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed 
to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free 
library does the same job as widely used non-free 
libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting 
the free library to free software only, so we use the 
Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library 
in non-free programs enables a greater number of 
people to use a large body of free software. For 
example, permission to use the GNU C Library in 
non-free programs enables many more people to use 
the whole GNU operating system, as well as its 
variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less 
protective of the users’ freedom, it does ensure that 
the user of a program that is linked with the Library 
has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that 
program using a modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, 
distribution and modification follow. Pay close 
attention to the difference between a “work based on 
the library” and a “work that uses the library”. The 
former contains code derived from the library, 
whereas the latter must be combined with the library 
in order to run.
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC 
LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR 
COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND 
MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software 
library or other program which contains a notice 
placed by the copyright holder or other authorized 
party saying it may be distributed under the terms of 
this Lesser General Public License (also called “this 
License”). Each licensee is addressed as “you”.
A “library” means a collection of software functions 
and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked 
with application programs (which use some of those 
functions and data) to form executables.
The “Library”, below, refers to any such software 
library or work which has been distributed under 
these terms.
A “work based on the Library” means either the 
Library or any derivative work under copyright law: 
that is to say, a work containing the Library or a 
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications 
and/or translated straightforwardly into another 
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included 
without limitation in the term “modification”.)
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of 
the work for making modifications to it. For a library, 
complete source code means all the source code for 
all modules it contains, plus any associated interface
