Patent ID: 8547295

Claim:
A display system comprising: an image-generating screen comprising a plurality of light-emissive components connected together for actively generating an image, each light-emissive component having a light-providing surface and a further surface, referred to as the back surface, generally opposite the light-providing surface, light emitted from each light-emissive component emanating from its light-providing surface with an intensity having a maximum that occurs in a maximum light-intensity direction materially non-perpendicular to that component's back surface, the components' back surfaces being materially slanted relative to one another so as to approximate a three-dimensional curved surface whereby the components' maximum light-intensity directions are materially slanted relative to one another and; a collimator having a curved surface for reflectively collimating light emitted from the light-emissive components and provided from the image-generating screen in order to substantially replicate the image, the curved surface of the collimator being tilted relative to the curved surface approximated by the back surfaces of the light-emissive components, the maximum light-intensity directions of the light-emissive components differing from being respectively perpendicular to the components' back surfaces by angles that collectively largely match the tilt of the curved surface of the collimator relative to the curved surface approximated by the components' back surfaces.
