Abstract:
1. A direct view display, comprising: a backlight comprising a first and second set of spectral emitters operable to generate light; and a light modulating panel operable to modulate the light; wherein the first set of spectral emitters comprises: a first spectral emitter selected from a pair of long band spectral emitters (R a second spectral emitter selected from a pair of middle band spectral emitters (G a third spectral emitter selected from a pair of short band spectral emitters (B wherein the second set of spectral emitters comprises: fourth, fifth, and sixth spectral emitters comprising a complementary selection of spectral emitters to those selected for the first set of spectral emitters; and wherein the direct view display has a multi-image mode, wherein the first and second sets of spectral emitters are operable to provide temporally alternating illumination to first and second images respectively, wherein the first set of spectral emitters is operable to provide a first light bundle to illuminate the first image, and wherein the second set of spectral emitters is operable to provide a second light bundle to illuminate the second image.
