    Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series THE DMD™ The DMD™ Notes A DMD™ (Digital Micromirror Device™) is a true digital light modulator which utilises 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 (pond of mirrors) and are not used in constructing the image.
  • Page 83 Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D 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 97: Positioning The Image

    Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series POSITIONING THE IMAGE Positioning The Image Notes The normal position for the projector is at the centre of the screen. However, you can set the projector above or below the centre, or to one side, and adjust the image using the Lens shift feature (known as rising and falling front) to maintain a geometrically correct image.
  • Page 98 Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series POSITIONING THE IMAGE Notes Any single adjustment outside the ranges specified on the following page may result in an unacceptable level of distortion, particularly at the corners of the image, due to the image passing through the periphery of the lens optics.
  • Page 99: Maximum Offset Range

    Digital Projection HIGHlite Laser 3D Series POSITIONING THE IMAGE Maximum offset range Notes The maximum offset range available with no distortion or vignetting is dependent on which lens is used.
