    Abstract: A display system (10) comprises a digital micromirror device (DMD) (24) controlled by a driver circuit (30) responsive to sequences of pulse width segments formed by a processor (31). The processor (31) increases the pixel brightness by actuating selected pulses such that within a first range of brightness levels between first and second pixel brightness boundaries, a first large-duration pulse becomes actuated to reach the second pixel brightness boundary, and within a second range of pixel brightness levels between second and third pixel brightness boundaries, the first large duration pulse element remains actuated. Upon reaching the third pixel brightness boundary, a second large duration pulse element now becomes actuated with the first large duration pulse element remaining actuated. Forming the pulse width segments in this manner serves to reduce motion contouring.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for projecting digital video content and for discouraging recording of the projected video content using a video camera or other sampling recording device are described, including accepting a frame of digital video content, time-shifting a bit-plane of the frame of the digital video content at a phase difference, projecting the time-shifted frame, repeating the accepting, time-shifting and projecting acts for a number of frames, adjusting the phase difference and repeating all of the above acts. Also described are a method and apparatus for generating an indication of a mid-scale level bit-plane of a frame of digital video content, including accepting a frame of digital video content, accepting a selection of mid-scale level bit-plane of the frame and generating an indication of the selection of the mid-scale level bit-plane of the frame. Time-shifting bit-planes of a frame generates in the recorded video a flicker.

    Abstract: A field sequential pulse width modulated display system (10) comprises a digital micromirror device (DMD) (24) having a plurality of micromirrors that each selectively pivot to reflect light onto a screen (28) to illuminate a corresponding pixel. A driver circuit (30) controls the DMD (24) responsive to sequences of pulse width segments formed by a processor (31). The processor (31) actuates at least one pulse in a first pulse width segment for a given color to increase pixel brightness with a range lying between first and second pixel brightness values. To further increase pixel brightness, the processor actuates at least one pulse within additional pulse width segments associated with the same given color to increase pixel brightness above the second brightness boundary. The pulses within the additional segments are actuated unequally so that the additional pulse width segments closest in time to the first segment (i.e., the segment first in brightness) have a greater total duration of actuated pulses for a given pixel brightness compared to the additional pulse width segments farther in time from the first segment. Actuating the pulses in this manner serves to: (a) limit the time dispersal of darker objects within a picture, (b) minimize the light redistribution between time segments for incremental brightness changes, and (c) taper up and down light intensity for the sequence of pulse width segments for a given picture, all to minimize motion artifacts.

    Abstract: A field sequential pulse width modulated display system (10) comprises a digital micromirror device (DMD) (24) having a plurality of micromirrors that each selectively pivot to reflect light onto a screen (28) to illuminate a corresponding pixel. A driver circuit (30) controls the DMD (24) responsive to sequences of pulse width segments formed by a processor (31). The processor (31) alters the actuation state of at least one pulse in a first pulse width segment for a given color to alter the pixel brightness with a range lying between first and second pixel brightness boundaries. Further, the processor alters the actuation state of at least one pulse within at least one additional pulse width segment to alter the pixel brightness above the second brightness boundary to make nearly equal the total width of pulses becoming actuated within a segment to the total pulse width becoming de-actuated within the same segment to achieve an incremental change in brightness. Equalizing the weight of the total duration of actuated pulses to non-actuated pulses on a segment by segment basis serves to reduce motion artifacts attributable to light redistribution effects on intensity gradients.

    Abstract: The invention provides a display control apparatus and a display control method wherein, where digital gradation display is performed, occurrences of a moving picture pseudo contour can be reduced simply. A signal production circuit produces a signal for driving a display section so that light of divisional light amounts obtained by dividing light amounts corresponding to bits which compose digital values which are pixel values may be emitted in a such manner as to be distributed within a time corresponding to one screen. In this instance, where both of a first light amount corresponding to a predetermined bit and a second light amount corresponding to a bit in a lower order by one bit to the bit are divided, the first and second light amounts are divided so that the division number of the first light amount may be smaller than twice the division number of the second light amount.
