ABSTRACT:
A display system (20) that uses multiple SLMs (25) to enhance horizontal or vertical resolution, or both. For example, to approximate a two-fold increase in horizontal resolution, the input data is sampled at a doubled rate, and each SLM (25) receives every other sample. Each SLM (25) generates an image, and the two images are partially superposed with a horizontal offset and simultaneously displayed. The resulting output image has a perceived resolution that approximates that of an image generated by an SLM with twice as many pixels per row.
