Abstract:

Described examples include a display having a first light source configured to provide a first light and a second light source configured to provide a second light. The display also having a spatial light modulator configured to produce a first modulated light by modulating the first light and configured to produce a second modulated light by modulating the second light. The display also having a first diffractive optical element configured to receive the first modulated light and configured to provide a first image having a first characteristic to display optics; and a second diffractive optical element configured to receive the second modulated light and configured to provide a second image having a second characteristic to the display optics.
