Display control system for spatial light modulators
First Claim
1. A display system including a spatial light modulator (SLM) having a plurality of pixel elements for modulating a light to project an image comprising:
- a first control unit for controlling each of the plurality of pixel elements for modulating said light under a state of ON or OFF;
a second control unit for controlling each of the plurality of pixel elements for modulating said light under a state other than the ON or OFF states; and
a control changeover unit for changing over from one of said first or second control unit to another control unit in modulating said light to project an image from each of said pixel elements.

Abstract
A display control system, comprises: a spatial light modulator (SLM) constituted by a plurality of pixel elements placed in array; a first control unit for controlling each of the plurality of pixel elements under a state of ON or OFF; a second control unit for controlling each of the plurality of pixel elements under a state other than the ON or OFF states; a control changeover unit for dividing one frame period, for each pixel element of the plurality thereof, into a period of the first control unit controlling and that of the second control unit controlling, and also changing over between a control of the first control unit and that of the second control unit for each pixel element of the plurality thereof; and a data division unit for dividing input data to each of the plurality of pixel elements into first control unit-use data, which is input to the first control unit, and second control unit-use data which is input to the second control unit in accordance with the content of the present input data.
