Abstract:
Rear projection video system screen assembly including a cross ribbed screen with variable vertical and horizontal gain, a dithered ribbed screen (410) with variable vertical and horizontal field of view, a screen with overlapping lenslets, a screen assembly to reduce speckle and to suppress reflection and minimize light loss as well as provide screen surface protection while providing improved screen contrast, and a technique for mounting the screen assembly (410) in the rear projection video system is provided.
Abstract:
A microdisplay includes a base substrate having an actively addressable array thereon. Multiple electrical contacts connect the array to an electrical input circuit. A covering substrate is disposed over the base substrate and has a conducting layer thereon. The conducting layer is electrically coupled to an opposing electrical terminal to the electrical input circuit. An electro-optic material is disposed between the conducting layer of the covering substrate and the base substrate.
Abstract:
Method and system for providing condensers (150) for use in a video projection system which are physical compact, has high collection efficiency and is configured to spatially homogenize the light beam is provided. Additionally, the condensers are (100, 150) configured to output a light beam with the proper physical size and shape, as well as with the proper format, and further, configured to remove the unwanted ultraviolet and infrared light, while being physically rugged, and inexpensive and easy to manufacture in high volume.
Abstract:
A microdisplay packaging includes a stiffener and a microdisplay including a semiconductor substrate coupled with the stiffener. Multiple electrical contacts connect the microdisplay to an external electrical input source. An electrical connection is disposed between the contacts and the external electrical input source. A covering substrate is disposed over the semiconductor substrate, wherein the covering substrate has a conducting layer thereon, and the conducting layer is electrically coupled to an opposing electrical terminal to the external electrical input source connected to the contacts through the electrical connection. An electro-optic material is disposed between the conducting layer of the covering substrate and the semiconductor substrate, wherein the conducting layer provides an opposing electrical terminal to the contacts on the semiconductor substrate.
Abstract:
Method and system for providing a digital signal processing system for video processing applications includes sub-systems to perform pre-processing, column (vertical) data processing, row (horizontal) data processing, frame (time) data processing, and post-processing. In particular, a color video enhancement circuit is provided to analyze the incoming video signal, apply a variety of modifications and output a video signal that contains improved visual properties to improve visual sensation, to reduce eye-strain, to provide easier readability of text and to provide correction and/or concealment of errors and/or perturbations.
Abstract:
Method and system for providing a reflective linear polarizer for an optical system such as a video projection system to more perfectly polarize the S component of the polarized incoming light from being polluted with the P component of the polarized incoming light by providing a non-absorptive polarization in the light path is provided.
