1. An optical system comprising:
- (a.) a plurality of light modulators, wherein each light modulator modulates a corresponding incident light beam;
(b.) one or more combining filters for superimposing the modulated light beams from each of the plurality of light modulators; and
(c.) an optical relay system including a filter, a primary mirror and a secondary mirror, wherein the optical relay system filters the superimposed light and relays the filtered light to an image plane.

Abstract
The optical system includes a plurality of light modulators, one or more combining filters, and an optical relay system including a filter. Each light modulator modulates a corresponding incident light beam. The one or more combining filters superimpose the modulated light beams from each of the plurality of light modulators. The optical relay system filters the superimposed light and relays the filtered light to an image plane.
