One of our main gripes with retractable screens has been the large and heavy spool that you needed to bolt onto the ceiling, which would use gravity and a weight to tension the unfolded screen. FORMOVIE has a solution to this that doesn't involve drilling any holes. The new 120-inch floor-rising projector screen sees the screen spooled into a weighted enclosure that sits on the floor, and uses a series of armatures and wires to tension the screen when rolled out. The screen unrolls from the base in under 30 seconds. Compatible with FORMOVIE UST Laser Projectors, the screen offers up to 90% ambient light rejection, making it suitable for most kinds of rooms, including well-lit conference rooms. Available now, the FORMOVIE floor-rising tensioned UST ALR projection screen is priced at $2,299.

ALR stands for "Ambient Light Rejection", meaning light from doorways & windows won't affect the picture.
White paint won't do that.

White paint also doesn't rise out from under the floor, but there are simple solutions such as closing window blinds. Or adding white paint to windows :roll:

Still looks like an awful way to spend 2300,- imho versus white paint and some curtain. At 500,- sure, palatable...

You should see one of these type of "backgrounds" in real life, its honestly really impressive, I was at a convention where they showed stuff like this and with all the convention lights shining ever so brightly you would still think you are looking at a television screen rather then a projection.
 
Here's a side-by-side review of an ALR screen vs a regular one.
The thumbnail alone is impressive
