Abstract

A projector projects pixels to form an image in accordance with image data. The projector includes a modulator which modulates light from a light source and outputs projected pixels in a plurality of color spectral bands. The projector has a light source with a non-uniform spectral power distribution with spectral energy within each of the plurality of color spectral bands. A first notch filter removes spectral energy from a first spectral range within a first color spectral band to improve gamut.
