PROJECTOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240319575 titled 'PROJECTOR
The abstract of the patent application describes a projector that utilizes a complex system of lenses to modulate light for image formation.
- Light source and collimator used to collimate the initial light emitted.
- First multi-lens array divides the light into partial pencils of light.
- Light incident regions contain at least two small lenses each.
- Second multi-lens array corresponds to the light incident regions.
- Superimposing lens combines the partial pencils of light onto an illumination area.
- Light modulator modulates the light in the image formation area.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in projectors for various applications such as presentations, entertainment, and education. - It can also be applied in augmented reality and virtual reality systems for immersive experiences.
Problems Solved: - The technology solves the problem of efficiently modulating light for image formation in projectors. - It also addresses the challenge of achieving high-quality image projection with precise control over light.
Benefits: - Improved image quality and brightness in projectors. - Enhanced control over light modulation for sharper and more detailed images. - Increased efficiency in light utilization for energy savings.
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Projection Technology for Enhanced Image Quality This technology can be commercialized in the consumer electronics industry for manufacturing high-end projectors with superior image quality. It can also be utilized in the professional AV sector for large-scale projection systems in auditoriums, theaters, and conference rooms.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this projector technology compare to traditional projection methods? - The innovative lens system in this projector technology allows for more precise control over light modulation, resulting in higher image quality and brightness compared to traditional methods.
2. What are the potential cost implications of implementing this advanced lens system in projectors? - While the initial cost of implementing this technology may be higher, the long-term benefits of improved image quality and energy efficiency can outweigh the initial investment.
Original Abstract Submitted
a projector includes a light source, a collimator collimating a first light emitted from the light source, a first multi-lens array having a plurality of first small lenses dividing the first light into a plurality of partial pencils of light, and a plurality of light incident regions each containing at least two of the first small lenses, a second multi-lens array having a plurality of second small lenses placed to correspond to the respective plurality of light incident regions, a superimposing lens superimposing the plurality of partial pencils of light emitted from the respective plurality of second small lenses on an illumination area, and a light modulator containing an image formation area as the illumination area and modulating light. the partial pencils of light emitted from at least the two respective first small lenses contained in the corresponding single light incident region enter the single second small lens.
