Patent ID: 6965387

Claim:
A method for transferring image data in real time for projection by a pixel panel, the method comprising: extracting a predefined amount of image data from a memory using a digital signal processor; calculating an angle of rotation between the pixel panel and a subject based on a value K, wherein the value K defines a number of points of the pixel panel that fall onto a single scan line; calculating a location for each of a plurality of image portions of the extracted image data on the pixel panel, wherein each location accounts for the angle of rotation; loading each bit from each of the image portions into a corresponding one of a plurality of registers of a shift register, wherein the loading orders the bits based on the location calculated for each image portion; transferring each of the image portions into a frame buffer; and transferring each frame to the pixel panel, wherein the extracting, calculating, loading, and transferring occurs in real time in response to a demand for image data for the pixel panel.
