  • Publication number: 20050185152
    Abstract: A system and method for fixing a projection lens 102 and adjusting the position of a projection lens 102 is provided, which is compact and has a high precision. The projection lens 102 is positioned on a base plate 104. The position of the projection lens can be adjusted by providing possibilities for horizontal and vertical shift in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the projection lens 102. This is performed by actuating three points of the base plate 104. Furthermore, by providing further shifting means at the three points of the base plate 104, tilting of the projection lens can be performed, thus providing Scheimpflug correction. In this way, motion of the projection lens in five degrees of freedom is provided by actuating three points at a base plate 104 whereon a projection lens 102 can be easily mounted and removed.

  • Publication number: 20050185145
    Abstract: A convergence system 100 comprises a dichroic prism 102 for splitting and/or recombining light beams, intermediate parts 104a, 104b, 104c and a light modulator 106a, 106b, 106c for every color beam. The intermediate parts 104a, 104b, 104c are constructed such that the convergence system has an improved resistance for variations in environmental effects like temperature and humidity. The intermediate parts 104a, 104b, 104c are constructed such that the convergence system has a high stability, a large degree of monolithicy and a high movement isotropy. When used in a projection display system, the projection display system has a high degree of color uniformity.
