Two Boston University graduates have invented a technology that led to a state-of-the-art video collaboration wall that is now installed in the lobby of the university’s College of Engineering. Prysm, a company that designs and manufactures video wall systems and is led by Amit Jain (’85) and Roger Hajjar (’88), has installed the video wall system using a technology they invented, laser phosphor display (LPD). LPD uses a laser engine and a phosphor panel to create images with low-power, solid-state lasers. It differs from LED- and LCD-based technologies, according to Jain, because it offers higher image quality with canvas-wide uniformity and a smaller environmental footprint.
