Abstract:
An image display system capable of displaying an M.times.N number of pixels, wherein M and N are integers, respectively, comprising:a light source for emitting a white light;a total mirror for reflecting the white light at a predetermined angle;an optical filter for splitting the white light reflected from the total mirror into a trinity of primary light beams;a trinity of arrays of M.times.N actuated mirrors, including a first, a second and a third arrays of M.times.N actuated mirrors, each of the M.times.N actuated mirrors for generating optical pixel signals by reflecting the primary light beams impinging thereon, each of the actuated mirrors in the arrays being capable of changing the optical paths of the primary light beams reflected therefrom;a projection stopper for partially transmitting the optical pixel signals;a driver circuit for controlling each actuated mirror based on an input image signal; anda projection screen for displaying the optical pixel signals passing through the projection stopper.
