Digital Projection THE DMD™ Reference Guide HIGHlite 8000 Series 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 and are not used in constructing the image. - Page 46 Digital Projection THE DMD™ Reference Guide HIGHlite 8000 Series The DMD™ (continued) 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.
