Abstract: A system and method for reduction of chromatic aberration for an image projection system utilizes a computer system that processes a parametric equation that defines the physical parameters of a projection lens unit. Based on the parametric equation, the divergence or refractive induced bending of light rays passing through the lens unit is identified. This divergence data is then utilized to generate offset values that are transferred to a control unit of a digital image display unit so as to offset, or otherwise space apart, the position of specific color sub-pixels by an appropriate amount to compensate for the divergence or bending effects of the lens unit. The applied offset causes the color light rays emitted by the color pixels to converge or otherwise join after passing through the lens, thus eliminating, or otherwise minimizing the chromatic aberration associated with the projected image.
