Patent ID: 7184103

Claim:
A laser video projector comprising: a light generating portion that emits light to be used to project a video image; an optic modulator that modulates the light incident from the light generating portion by using the video signal; an optic combining portion that combines modulated light beams emitted from the optic modulator; and an optic scanning portion that scans light incident from the optic combining portion on a screen, wherein the optic modulator has six or more optic modulation channels so that a plurality of red light beams, a plurality of green light beams, and a plurality of blue light beams incident in a state suitable for optic modulation are simultaneously modulated such that a plurality of adjacent lines on a two dimensional screen having dimensions on perpendicular axes wherein said adjacent raster lines all begin at one point on one axis and all end at another point on said one axis of said two dimensional screen such that said adjacent raster lines corresponding to the plurality of red, green and blue light beams forms a single image.
