ABSTRACT:
An overhead projector which projects a distortion-free image onto a vertical screen at an oblique angle above the horizontal plane. In a first embodiment of the invention, a projection lens and mirror are displaced from the center of a transparency stage in the direction of projection and a thin, linear, incrementally-grooved prismatic sheet is positioned parallel to the stage and between the stage and a lighting means to redirect light transmitted through the stage and the transparency to the projection lens. In a second embodiment of the invention, the grooved prism is formed as an integral part of the lighting means.
