Page 87: The Dmd
Digital Projection HIGHlite 740 Series THE DMD™ The DMD™ Notes A DMD™ (Digital Micromirror Device™) is a true digital light modulator which utilizes an array of up to 2.3 million moving aluminium mirrors, with each one representing a pixel in the final projected image. The outermost micromirrors in the array remain inactive and are not used in constructing the image. - Page 88 Digital Projection HIGHlite 740 Series THE DMD™ Notes Depending on the voltage polarity applied, each mirror will either tilt to the left to produce a bright pixel or to the right for a dark pixel. When light is applied to the complete DMD™, only the light redirected from a mirror tilting to the left is projected.

Page 115: Pulldowns - Conversion Into Destination Formats
Digital Projection HIGHlite 740 Series FRAME RATES AND PULLDOWNS EXPLAINED Pulldowns - conversion into destination formats Notes Pulldowns are a method of converting a 24p source into a different destination format by adding extra frames to the source. 2:3 (normal) pulldown This method is used to convert a 24p source (film) into a 60i destination (NTSC video) by adding two extra fields for every four frames, effectively increasing the frame rate to 30 fps. -
Page 116: 2:3:3:2 (Advanced) Pulldown
Digital Projection HIGHlite 740 Series FRAME RATES AND PULLDOWNS EXPLAINED 2:3:3:2 (advanced) pulldown Notes This method is very similar to the normal pulldown. Unlike the normal pulldown method, the resulting 30 fps video sequence contains only one frame containing fields from two different source frames. -
