1. A light modulator device comprising:

  • a first electrical conduit;

    a second electrical conduit electrically isolated from the first electrical conduit;

    a first display element in electrical communication with the first electrical conduit and the second electrical conduit, the first display element having a first optically active area;

    a second display element in electrical communication with the first electrical conduit and the second electrical conduit, the second display element having a second optically active area smaller than the first optically active area;

    a third electrical conduit electrically isolated from the first electrical conduit and the second electrical conduit;

    a third display element in electrical communication with the first electrical conduit and the third electrical conduit, the third display element having a third optically active area different than each of the first and second optically active areas;

    a fourth electrical conduit electrically isolated from the first electrical conduit, the second electrical conduit, and the third electrical conduit; and

    a fourth display element in electrical communication with the first electrical conduit and the fourth electrical conduit, the fourth display element having a fourth optically active area different than each of the first, second, and third optically active areas.
