Laser color television (laser TV), or laser color video display, is a type of television that utilizes two or more individually modulated optical (laser) rays of different colors to produce a combined spot that is scanned and projected across the image plane by a polygon-mirror system or less effectively by optoelectronic means to produce a color-television display.
The laser draws an image onto the screen by scanning line by line from top to bottom. [7] The energy from the lasers' light activates the phosphors, which emit photons, producing an image. [5] [8] [9] [10] The building blocks of every Prysm video wall are the Laser Phosphor Display (LPD) tiles called the TD2.
LCDs have a constant (backlit) image, where the intensity is varied by blocking the light shining through the panel. CRTs use an electron beam, scanning the display, flashing a lit image. If interlacing is used, a single full-resolution image results in two "flashes".
Laser light is useful in entertainment because the coherent nature of laser light allows a narrow beam to be produced, which allows the use of optical scanning to draw patterns or images on walls, ceilings or other surfaces including theatrical smoke and fog without refocusing for the differences in distance, as is common with video projection ...
Light from the lamp enters a reverse-fisheye, passes through the spinning color wheel, crosses underneath the main lens, reflects off a front-surfaced mirror, and is spread onto the DMD (red arrows). From there, light either enters the lens (yellow) or is reflected off the top cover down into a light-sink (blue arrows) to absorb unneeded light.
Industrial laser projectors have been on the market since the early 2000s. Laser projectors are mainly used as optical guidance systems. They enable working without templates in many manufacturing processes by showing directly on the workpiece how material needs to be positioned or mounted, so that the employee is led by manual or semiautomatic productional processes visually.
Contrast is the difference in luminance or color that makes an object (or its representation in an image or display) visible against a background of different luminance or color. [1] The human visual system is more sensitive to contrast than to absolute luminance; thus, we can perceive the world similarly despite significant changes in ...
Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser material (see the figure description for details).
