Method and system for displaying an image

摘要

A method for displaying an image using a digital micromirror device having a plurality of mirrors operable to assume a plurality of positions is provided. The method includes receiving a plurality of numbers representing a respective plurality of pixels that form a plurality of dither patterns. Each dither pattern is a particular portion of the image to be displayed and each pixel is represented by a particular number. The method also includes assigning, to each number, an address identifying a particular one of the plurality of mirrors in a particular position. The address is unique among the addresses assigned to each of the plurality of numbers. The method also includes displaying the dither patterns one after another in a predetermined frame time period using the digital micromirror device. The dither patterns are displayed by showing each pixel on a display according to the number representing the pixel. Each pixel is shown using the particular mirror in the particular position identified by the address that is assigned to the number.
