    摘要: Disclosed are a system and method for microprojection that uses multiple imagers to produce a high resolution output image. Each of a set of imagers produces a portion of the final image. Relay lenses then tile the individual image portions together into a combined image. Because the height of the individual imagers is smaller than the height of a monolithic imager, they can fit into a very thin device. The combined image has a resolution equal to the sum of the resolutions of the individual imagers. The individual images are tiled together within the microprojector itself rather than on a projection screen. This allows the tiling to be adjusted once at the factory and set forever. In some embodiments, the light created for use by the microprojector is split by a polarizing beamsplitter. Each resultant polarized beam is then sent to an imager. Another polarizing beamsplitter combines the individual images.

    摘要: Disclosed are a system and method for microprojection that uses a “reduced-height” imager to sequentially display a series of partial images within one frame time. The partial images visually combine on a projection surface (e.g., a screen or a wall) into one high-resolution projected image. As a result, the microprojector projects an image with a resolution equal to the sum of the resolutions of the individual partial images while avoiding the use of very small imager optics with their lowered efficiency. For example, one embodiment projects exactly two partial images during each frame. During a first state of operation, a “half-height” imager displays the odd-numbered lines of the projected image. During a second state of operation, the imager displays the even-numbered lines of the projected image. By quickly cycling through these two states, no image flickering between phases is visible, and the combined image appears as a seamless whole.

    摘要: A method for delineating a metallization pattern in a layer of sputtered aluminum or sputtered copper using a broad spectrum high intensity light source. The metal is deposited on a polymeric substrate by sputtering, so that it has a porous nanostructure. An opaque mask that is a positive representation of the desired metallization pattern is then situated over the metallization layer, exposing those portions of the metallization layer intended to be removed. The masked metallization layer is then exposed to a rapid burst of high intensity visible light from an arc source sufficient to cause complete removal of the exposed portions of the metallization layer, exposing the underlying substrate and creating the delineated pattern.

    摘要: A low profile projector (102) for handheld devices (100) comprise a spatial light modulator (400) that has an aspect ratio that is increased relative to a standard video format and relative to an image projected by the low profile projector. The reduced height of the spatial light modulator (400) allows it fit within a thin handheld electronic device (100). An anamorphic lens (604,700) reduces the aspect ratio of the projected image relative to the aspect ratio of the spatial light modulator (400).

    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling light intensity from two or more light sources. A timing scheme is used to modulate the light sources. Light from the light sources is combined to form a beam and a photo-sensor senses the beam. In a time interval when only one of the light sources is activated, the signal from the photo-sensor is monitored and used in a feedback control circuit to control the active light source.
