ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display system in which a pair of transmission displays are used with a light source, and coupling optics to provide a small, high resolution optically efficient color imaging system. A preferred embodiment of the system comprises a color shutter to control color transmission through each liquid crystal display.
