I wonder what those installations actually looked like, and how many were actually in people's houses. Did any of them project onto a screen located some distance away? How big were the pictures? I've never seen a single photo of a 50s projector in a domestic setting.

The thing which really worked well for the VideoBeam, was it came into existence at roughly the same time as the VCR - making a video based home movie theater possible.
