27 Feb 1989TL;DR: In this paper, a pointer for a three dimensional display utilizes sensors on the display for the user to communicate with the display by means of a hand held device, which can have a spatial light modulator with a plurality of deformable mirror cells with several memory cells.
Abstract: A pointer for a three dimensional display utilizes sensors on the display for the user to communicate with the display by means of a hand held device. The three dimensional display can have a spatial light modulator with a plurality of deformable mirror cells each with several memory cells.

30 Jun 1998TL;DR: In this article, an image displaying apparatus and method is provided which can provide a satisfactory display with a gradation of intensity even with a spatial light modulator which provides a binary light modulation.
Abstract: An image displaying apparatus and method is provided which can provide a satisfactory display with a gradation of intensity even with a spatial light modulator which provides a binary light modulation A light from a light source 1 is modulated by a spatial light modulator 3 which modulates a light at each pixel thereof correspondingly to a pixel data of an image to be displayed When the pixel state of the spatial light modulator 3 is being changed, the light source 1 is turned off When the pixel state of the spatial light modulator 3 is steady, a light pulse is irradiated from the light source 1 to the spatial light modulator 3 to display the image

03 Jan 1994TL;DR: In this paper, an SLM-based video receiver (10) receives a video input on a field-by-field basis at a signal interface unit (11) and passes the input to a processor (12).
Abstract: An SLM-based video receiver (10) receives a video input on a field-by-field basis at a signal interface unit (11) and passes the input to a processor (12). The processor (12) performs analog-to-digital conversion if the pixel data is analog and also performs other enhancements to prepare the pixel data for loading into a video memory (14). Pixel data from the processor (12), representing a field of pixel data, is stored into the memory (14) for loading into rows of pixel elements of a spatial light modulator (16). The spatial light modulator (16) receives the pixel data in rows. The addressing functions of the spatial light modulator (16) are used to generate additional display rows of pixel data per field. Thus, the SLM-based video receiver (10) displays a video frame having more lines than the field of pixel data.

30 Aug 1993TL;DR: In this article, a method and apparatus for printing stroke and contone data together are provided in which data to be printed (102) is identified by a processor (100) as being either stroke or contone.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for printing stroke and contone data together are provided in which data to be printed (102) is identified by a processor (100) as being either stroke or contone data. For contone data, processor (100) controls a light source (14), a spatial light modulator (12), and an optical photoconductive drum (16) to generate image quality graphics by using spatial light modulation in the process and cross-process directions. For stroke data, processor (100) controls light source (14), spatial light modulator (12), and optical photoconductive drum (16) for high resolution printing by using intensity modulation. Processor (100) is operable to control light intensities through the use of lookup tables stored in a memory (104).

TL;DR: In this article, a spatial light modulator at the transmitter was used in conjunction with a standard multimode coupler at the receiver to modally multiplex 2 × 12.5 Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero channels using direct detection over 2 km of 940 MHz OM2 fiber without electronic processing.
Abstract: A spatial light modulator at the transmitter is used in conjunction with a standard multimode coupler at the receiver to modally multiplex 2 × 12.5 Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero channels using direct detection over 2 km of 940 MHz OM2 fiber without electronic processing. The wavelength dependence of this technique over a 4.5 THz band is also investigated.
