The term "diffusing screen" refers to a device that spreads or scatters light, reducing glare or brightness. Some synonyms for this term include "light diffuser," "anti-glare filter," and "screen filter." A "frosted screen" is another option, which has a slightly roughened surface that disperses light more evenly. "Light diffusing film" can also be used to refer to this type of screen, as it is often made from a thin layer of polymer that scatters light. Other variations include "lens hood" and "light bouncer," which are used to direct or reflect specific types of light into a scene. Regardless of the terminology used, the goal is to achieve soft, diffused lighting that enhances the visual quality of whatever is being viewed.
