Sightline is the viewer's clear visual path from each seat to the screen without obstruction.
Example of Sightline
A dedicated theater can use a correctly sized screen, calibrated projector, properly placed speakers, dimmed lighting, and acoustic treatment for a cinema-like experience. In that kind of Davis private cinema project, the term Sightline would describe the viewer's clear visual path from each seat to the screen without obstruction. Davis would use that understanding to account for room layout, screen size, projector or display placement, speaker locations, acoustics, lighting, and calibration, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
