System and method for displaying a color picture

摘要

A system for displaying a color picture. This system has a field sequential signal generator for receiving and storing a color picture signal, which includes a plurality of signal components per field, at a first rate and sequentially sending the plurality of signal components, as a field sequential signal, at a second rate which is higher than the first rate; a picture display for displaying a monochromatic picture based on each of the signal components; a coloring device for coloring light emitted from the monochromatic picture displayed on the picture display; and a controller for sending a vertical sync signal, which includes a plurality of vertical sync pulses corresponding to the signal components respectively, to the picture display. The controller controls a timing at which each of the vertical sync pulses is sent to the picture display in such a way that respective time intervals between when the vertical sync pulse is sent from the controller to the picture display and when the signal component is sent from the field sequential signal generator to the picture display are equal.
