Abstract: In a method embodiment, a method for image processing includes receiving one or more signals indicative of an optical characteristic of one or more respective light beams. A transform is generated based on the received one or more signals. The transform converts a first plurality of image components encoded by a first plurality of colors to a second plurality of image components encoded by a second plurality of colors.

Abstract: A spatial light modulator (10) of the DMD type having an array of memory cells (16) controlling an array of pixels (12). The memory cell array (16) has several integral, interleaved spare rows of memory cells MR (R1), MR (R2), and MR (R3), which can be selectively utilized to replace a defective row of primary memory cells. A fused row address mapping logic circuit (40) includes a network of fuses (F0-F12) and controls the implementation of memory cells, as well as the mapping of address signals to the memory cells as a function of inputs (R0-R11) received from a row decoder circuit (20). This circuit (40) is transparent to the row address decoder circuit (20). The present invention is suitable for large spatial light modulators compatible with high definition television (HDTV). High yield devices can be obtained with the present invention.
