1. A display system comprising:
- a light source;
at least two deflectable mirror arrays effective to spatially modulate incident light with the same pattern;
means for splitting light of the same spectral composition from the light source between the spatial light modulators;
means for combining the spatially modulated light produced by the deflectable mirror arrays to create an image for projection onto a display; and
means for directing the combined light onto a display to form an image, the system being such that the combined light forming the image has a greater luminous flux than the light produced by each deflectable mirror array.

Abstract
A projecting display system includes a light source (101) which produces light which is spatially modulated by a number of spatial light modulators (105, 107). A splitting means (103) is provided in the light path between the light source (101) and the spatial light modulators (105 and 107) such that the overall luminous flux produceabale by the system is not determined by the maximum luminous flux which each spatial light modulators (105, 107) can accommodate.

2. A display system comprising:
-
a multi wavelength light source;
a plurality of deflectable mirror arrays each effective to spatially modulate incident light with a different wavelength band component of the same pattern;
wavelength selective means for light within each different wavelength bands towards the corresponding deflectable mirror;
means for combining the spatially modulated light produced by the deflectable mirror array; and
means for directing the combined light onto a display;
wherein there are provided sufficient spatial light modulators to increase the balance of the division of the luminous flux produced by the light source between the spatial light modulators. - View Dependent Claims (3)
