Abstract

Disclosed is a method for generating patterns to be used in a spatial light modulator having a plurality of pixels. The method includes generating an optical pattern to be placed upon the pixels of the spatial light modulator, applying the optical pattern to the pixels of the spatial light modulator, measuring the optical performance of the plurality of pixels having the optical pattern applied to it, comparing the measured optical performance to a target optical performance, and adjusting the optical pattern applied to the plurality of pixels to form another optical pattern that more closely achieves the target optical performance.
