Abstract: A light-emitting diode (LED) projector includes an LED display panel and a projection lens arranged in front of LED display panel and configured to collect and project light emitted by the LED display panel. The LED display panel includes an LED panel and a micro lens array arranged over the LED panel. The LED panel includes a substrate, a driver circuit array on the substrate and including a plurality of pixel driver circuits arranged in an array, and an LED array including a plurality of LED dies each being coupled to one of the pixel driver circuits. The micro lens array includes a plurality of micro lenses each corresponding to and being arranged over at least one of the LED dies.

Abstract: Various embodiments include a display panel with integrated micro lens array. The display panel typically includes an array of pixel light sources (e.g., LEDs) electrically coupled to corresponding pixel driver circuits (e.g., FETs). The array of micro lenses are aligned to the pixel light sources and positioned to reduce the divergence of light produced by the pixel light sources. The display panel may also include an integrated optical spacer to maintain the positioning between the micro lenses and pixel driver circuits.
