Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques for separating an image into a forward sweeping image and a backward sweeping image are disclosed. A lookup table maps MEMS projection positions on a display with corresponding pixel positions in an image generated by a camera facing the display. The lookup table is used to associate a first set of pixel positions in the image with a forward scanning sweep of the MEMS system. The lookup table is also used to associate a second set of pixel positions in the image with a backward scanning sweep of the MEMS system. The first and second sets of pixel positions are used to generate the forward sweeping image and the backward sweeping image, respectively. These images can then be used to calibrate the MEMS system to compensate for bi-phase.
