Abstract:
In an example embodiment, an image processing system can be implemented, which includes a printing surface and a prism that splits light from an input light source into two parallel light beams indicative of a signal image. Two or more DMDs (Digital Micromirror Devices) can be utilized, wherein the two parallel light beams are directed to the DMDs for image processing, such that as the two parallel light beams are reflected out onto the printing surface, the two parallel light beams are recombined into a single image, thereby enabling heat dissipation while “stitching” said output of said at least two digital micromirror devices to a usable video path.
