Abstract
The present invention provides a single-panel field-sequential full color display systems that are less complex, smaller in size and less costly than prior additive split-path color systems, while exhibiting higher light output, greater flexibility and greater reliability than prior single-panel field-sequential systems. In the first preferred embodiment, the display system includes a “frame buffer” style spatial light modulator, in which a frame buffer pixel circuit is integrated into the spatial light modulator. The display system of the present invention also preferably includes on opto-electronic color sequencer which allows for the electronic control of the transmission of additive primary colors.
