Low cost projection system

Abstract:

Described examples include a projection system having a light source. The projection system also has a light integrator having an output face, the light integrator configured to receive an output of the light source, wherein a length of the light integrator is less than at least one diametric measurement of the output face of the light integrator. The projection system also has a spatial light modulator and focusing optics configured to receive a light output of the light integrator and configured to focus the light output of the light integrator onto the spatial light modulator. The projection system also has projection optics configured to project modulated light from the spatial light modulator.
