  • Patent number: 11588077
    Abstract: A display device including an array of pixels, each pixel including at least three sub-pixels having a LED device emitting light with a blue color point. The first sub-pixel is designed to emit red light having a first color point, the second sub-pixel is designed to emit green light having a second color point, where the LED device of the third sub-pixel is covered with a third wavelength converting layer designed to emit light having a fourth color point. The fourth color point being such that the combination of light emitted by the LED device not converted by the wavelength converting layer and the light converted by the wavelength converting layer results in light having a third color point, where the first, the second and the third color points define a second color space in which a set color space is included.

  • Patent number: 11009744
    Abstract: A reflective display device and a method of making or operating the display device, where the reflective display device includes a spatial reflective light valve, at least one light emitting element being positioned in front of the spatial reflective light valve and light shaping device to direct the light generated by the at least one light emitting element in defined directions with respect to the spatial reflective light valve. This makes use of the fact that the contrast improves and the diffuse reflection component of the reflective display increases when the illumination direction gets closer to the perpendicular direction but rays close to the perpendicular direction need to be reduced in intensity or better still avoided to reduce the specular component. This can use illumination directions close to the perpendicular direction while preventing or reducing specular reflection within a range of incident angles.

  • Patent number: 10063820
    Abstract: The invention pertains to a projection assembly comprising at least a first screen (14) and a second screen (10). The first screen (14) is at an angle with the second screen (10). The first screen (14) is adapted to reflect light projected onto it predominantly or exclusively in one or more angular ranges that do not intersect with the second screen (10). The invention also pertains to a method for projecting images with such a projection assembly, comprising projecting a first image with the first projector (16B) on the first screen (14), and projecting a second image with the second projector (16A) on the second screen (10).
