About Spitz, Inc.Founded by legendary planetarium educator Armand Spitz in 1947, Spitz, Inc., a Cosm company, began as a provider of affordable optical planetarium projectors for schools and small educational institutions.

The projection surface of a dome screen requires a precise "paneling" process. A uniform optical surface is essential to create realistic immersive projection. Spitz's screen surface is made up of precisely curved, perforated aluminum panels, attached to a structural frame. Spitz offers three paneling methods to accommodate different budgets and display requirements.
