Method and system for generating color using a low-resolution spatial color modulator and a high-resolution modulator
First Claim
1. A display system, comprising:
- a low-resolution modulator having an first array of pixel elements that independently modulate color to create a low-resolution image; and
a high-resolution modulator receiving the low-resolution image and having a second array of pixel elements each configured to further refine the low-resolution image to create a high-resolution image.

Abstract
A method and system for generating an image. The image includes an array of low-resolution pixels each including a plurality of high-resolution pixels. The display system includes a first light modulator having an array of color pixel elements wherein each of the color pixel elements is configured to independently modulate a spectral distribution of one of the low-resolution pixels and a second light modulator having an array of gray scale pixel elements each configured to independently modulate a gray scale of the high-resolution pixels. The first and second light modulators are configured to cooperatively operate such that each of the low-resolution pixels includes a number of groups of high-resolution pixels each having a different hue.
