ABSTRACT:
An image mover having a reduced sizing for the steering mirror and rotator assembly and associated components and motors is disclosed. The image mover comprises a relay lens to collimate and relay angular information of the light image from the projector scanning mirror. Rotators, such as K-mirror, pechan prism or dove prism, rotate the collimated image responsive to horizontal movement of the image. A restoring lens, which can either be a fixed focal length or a zoom lens, restores the collimated light image proportional to the angular information of the image produced by the projector. The restored diverging image is projected to a steering mirror and steered onto a viewing surface in real time.
