    摘要: A projection system can direct stereo image content to a display surface using an internally located stereo polarization modulator while avoiding intra-frame contrast degradation from using a stereo polarization modulator. In one example, the stereo polarization modulator is positioned between a spatial light modulator device and imaging optics in the projection system. The imaging optics can prevent part of the imaged light scattered by the stereo polarization modulator from being projected by the projection system, while allowing other light to be projected. Doing so can reduce or avoid intra-frame contrast degradation of the projected imaged light that may otherwise occur because of the presence of the stereo polarization modulator. In this or as a separate example, the projection system can include an enclosure between a port window and a projection lens to absorb the portion of the light scattered by the stereo polarization modulator.
