When coordinated with a 3D digital video or graphic signal, a light source, and a projection lens, DLP technology enables stereo 3D display capabilities in high definition at high frame rates.

 

Enhanced Life

DLP technology will enable consumers to view 3D content in their homes. ecause the 3D HDTV mode is very inexpensive to implement, viewers will realize the benefit of compelling, high-definition, 3D viewing in addition to conventional high-definition capability.

 

Goals

To enable compelling 3D, 2D, and HD viewing experiences and to provide incentives for content providers to target home viewers with 3D media.

 

Innovations

The DLP chip contains a rectangular array of up to two million hinge-mounted microscopic mirrors. Each of these micro-mirrors measures less than one-fifth the width of a human hair. The bit-streamed image code entering the semiconductor directs each mirror to switch on and off up to several thousand times per second. This fast switching rate enables a 120-Hz frame rate, which allows display of 3D stereographic images at 60 Hz per eye without flicker.

 

Vision

Consumer 3D-ready HDTVs now exist, so content providers can begin creating movies and games that add another level of immersion for consumers. Over one million 3D-ready DLP televisions are expected to be in consumers' homes by mid-2008.
