摘要： An edge lit locally dimmed display has a spatial light modulator illuminated by a light source. The light source is positioned at an edge and behind the spatial light modulator. The spatial light modulator is illuminated with a low resolution version of a desired image. The illumination may comprise a series of lighting elements that vary smoothly from one element to another at the spatial light modulator.

摘要： Dual modulator displays are disclosed incorporating a phosphorescent plate interposed in the optical path between a light source modulation layer and a display modulation layer. Spatially modulated light output from the light source modulation layer impinges on the phosphorescent plate and excites corresponding regions of the phosphorescent plate which in turn emit light having different spectral characteristics than the light output from the light source modulation layer. Light emitted from the phosphorescent plate is received and further modulated by the display modulation layer to provide the ultimate display output.

摘要： A reflective display having a plurality of transparent hemi-beads (120), each having a reflective region (80) surrounding a non-reflective region (82). Each hemi-bead has an associated light absorptive fluid droplet (122) having a normally relaxed shape contacting the non-reflective region, thereby frustrating total internal reflection of light rays at the droplet/hemi-bead interface. An electrical potential is selectably applied across selected droplets. Application of the electrical potential across a droplet deforms the droplet away from the hemi-bead associated with the droplet, such that light rays (158) incident on the non-reflective region are refracted toward substrate (124) and reflected back through hemi-bead (120) in an approximately opposite direction (166); and such that light rays (162) incident on the reflective region are semi-retro-reflected (168). Removal of the electrical potential allows the droplet to resume the relaxed shape.

摘要： An optical structure placeable between a backlight array of point light sources and a planar display. The structure distributes light emitted by the point light sources to uniformly illuminate the plane of the display, without introducing significant viewing parallax. The emitted light is partially collimated within a preferred angular viewing range, maximizing the display's luminance when viewed from the normal direction. The structure is highly reflective, such that a substantial portion of any non-emitted light rays are internally reflected by the structure, increasing the likelihood that those rays will be subsequently emitted by the structure.

摘要： A display has a first array of pixels connected to emit individually-controlled amounts of light onto a second array of pixels. The second array of pixels is connected to pass individually-controllable portions of the light. The display has a controller connected to control the pixels of the first and second arrays of pixels. The controller is configured to control the pixels of the first array of pixels to provide on the second array of pixels an approximation of an image specified by image data; determine a difference between the image and the approximation of the image at individual pixels of the second array of pixels; and control the pixels of the second array of pixels to modulate the approximation of the image according to the corresponding determined differences.

摘要： A reflective display having a plurality of approximately hemispherical high refractive index (η1) transparent hemi-beads substantially covering and protruding inwardly from a transparent sheet's inward surface. The transparent sheet, which has an outward viewing surface, has a refractive index (η2) which can be low (i.e. η1≈1.92 and η2≈1.59). A member is selectably moved into an intense evanescent wave region at the hemi-beads' inward side to selectably frustrate substantial total internal reflection of light rays. The member can be a plurality of light scattering particles suspended in a low refractive index (η3≈1.27) electrophoresis medium and electrophoretically moved into or out of the intense evanescent wave region.

摘要： A color image display having a spatially uniform distribution of at least two different “types” of prism structure. The first type consists of a prism, a color filter associated with one of the prism's facets and two color absorbing control members, each of which can be biased away from or into optical contact with one of the prism's other two facets. The color filter has a first spectral absorption characteristic, and the control members have second and third spectral absorption characteristics respectively. The second type of prism structure consists of a second prism, a color filter associated with one of the second prism's facets and at least one color absorbing control member which can be biased away from or into optical contact with one of the second prism's other two facets. The second prism's color filter and control member have fourth and fifth spectral absorption characteristics respectively. The spectral absorption characteristics are selected such that, for any selected set comprising proximate ones of each of the two types of prism structure, controlled movement of the members between particular selected combinations of their possible respective positions causes the set as a whole to reflect light which has an average spectral reflectance characteristic corresponding to any one of three independent colors, with no one of the independent colors being obtainable by mixing any other two of the independent colors.

摘要： An image display apparatus utilizing a hollow light guide having a non-diffuse highly reflective inner rear surface and a non-diffusely partially transmissive, non-diffusely partially reflective image-bearing front surface. A light source emits light into one end of the light guide. The image-bearing front surface has high reflectivity and low transmissivity adjacent portions of the image which are to be illuminated at relatively low intensity; and, has low reflectivity and high transmissivity adjacent portions of the image which are to be illuminated at relatively high intensity. This can, for example, be achieved by forming the image-bearing front surface of an outer image-bearing sheet laminated to an inner sheet of highly reflective perforated material. The inner sheet's apertures are distributed, or the size of the apertures is varied, such that any selected area on the inner sheet is apertured in proportion to the desired intensity of illumination of the image adjacent that selected area. Alternatively, the image-bearing front surface may be a half-tone imaged sheet of high reflectivity material, with the image being formed such that the density of the image varies in proportion to the desired intensity of illumination of the image adjacent. A prismatic film mounted in front of the image-bearing front surface redirects light into the perpendicular viewing direction.
