  • Patent number: 11988847
    Abstract: An optical element driving mechanism is provided. The optical element driving mechanism includes a fixed portion, a first movable portion, a second movable portion, a first driving assembly, and a second driving assembly. The first movable portion is movable relative to the fixed portion. The second movable portion is used for holding an optical element having a main axis, and is movable relative to the first movable portion. The first driving assembly is used for driving the first movable portion to move in a first dimension relative to the fixed portion, and the second driving assembly is used for driving the second movable portion to move in a second dimension relative to the fixed portion. The first dimension and the second dimension are different.

  • Publication number: 20240040095
    Abstract: A projection system includes a projection device, a light sensor, a control unit, and an arithmetic unit. The projection device is configured to project an image beam toward a projection surface. The light sensor is configured to sense at least one of a background beam and the image beam reflected by the projection surface and obtaining chromaticity information. The control unit is electrically connected to the projection device, and configured to control the image beam projected by the projection device. The arithmetic unit is electrically connected to the control unit and the light sensor. The arithmetic unit is configured to generate an adjustment signal according to the chromaticity information. The control unit is configured to adjust a color temperature, a brightness, and a color gamut of the image beam according to the adjustment signal. A calibration method of the projection system is also proposed.

  • Patent number: 11800072
    Abstract: A projection system and a projection method are provided. The projection system includes a digital micromirror device, a digital light processing chip, and a display processing chip. The display processing chip receives a first image signal with a variable frame rate from an external signal source, and outputs a second image signal with one of a plurality of fixed projection frame rates to the digital light processing chip according to the first image signal and one of the fixed projection frame rates supported by the projection system. The digital light processing chip drives the digital micromirror device according to the second image signal. The projection system and the projection method of the invention may realize a variable frame rate function and effectively improve smoothness of a projection image.

  • Publication number: 20230300302
    Abstract: A projection apparatus, an illumination apparatus thereof, and a light source driving method thereof are provided. A control module converts a bit control signal into first light source timing signals, converts the first light source timing signals into second light source timing signals according to a lookup table, generates a driving current corresponding to each light source according to the lookup table, outputs second light source driving signals corresponding to the light sources according to the second light source timing signals. The lookup table includes a driving current ratio corresponding to the light sources. A driving module drives the light sources according to the second light source driving signals and the driving current for the light sources to have overlapping light-emitting timings.
