ABSTRACT:
A sequential color display system using a white light source to create a full color image projected onto an image plane. A dynamic filter, typically a series of moving dichroic filters, generates a series of primary colored light beams that are swept across the surface of a spatial light modulator. Typically all three primary colors are produced simultaneously by the dynamic filter. The illuminated portion of the dynamic filter is imaged onto the modulator and controller provides appropriate image data for each portion of the modulator in synchronization with the sweep of the primary color bands across the modulator surface. The primary color bands are modulated by the spatial light modulator and the modulated light is focused by lens onto the image plane. The viewer integrates the light arriving at each portion of the image plane over a frame period to provide the perception of a full-color image.
