Abstract:
An image generating device is disclosed having a light source configured to produce an upstream light beam, and an array of elements with variable transmittance configured to selectively receive and transmit the upstream light beam so as to form a downstream light beam forming an image. A downstream face of the array of variable transmittance elements is in contact with an at least partially transparent plate configured to limit heating of the array of variable transmittance elements. A downstream face of the partially transparent plate is in contact with a cold face of a thermoelectric cooling module.
