Methods and systems for implementing a high resolution color micro-display
View Patent ↗The tiled array of fiber scanners includes multiple fiber scanners arranged in a polygonal pattern determined based on analysis results. Multiple fiber scanners generate multiple component images tiled to form a seamless overall image. A fiber scanner is devised through analysis and includes projector optics, a single-core or multi-core scan fiber disposed within an actuator tube coupled with the projector optics within a housing tube according to analysis results and one or more compensators.
1. A tiled array of fiber scanned displays, comprising:
a number of fiber scanners that are affixed in the tiled array in a polygonal pattern, wherein
each of the fiber scanners produces a component image;
a fiber scanner in the number of fiber scanners comprises:
projector optics disposed within a housing tube; and
a scan fiber disposed within a piezoelectric actuator tube, which is coupled with the projector optics, according to analysis results and one or more compensators; and
a number of component images are tiled together in a corresponding polygonal pattern derived from the polygonal pattern to produce an overall image that is visually seamless;
the overall image has a resolution of 5.24 mega-pixels with a pixel pitch of 3.66 μm and an aspect ratio of 5:4; and
the tiled array has a dynamic range of 12-bit and produces the overall image at a refresh rate of 72 Hz.
