Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a display device comprised of a matrix array of pixels on a monolithic screen, each pixel addressed by an infrared scanning laser. The screen is primarily a phototransistor circuit, which produces a light output at each pixel on which the laser scans.

Reverse polarizing the transistor circuit terminates light output. Modulating the laser's duration and or intensity provides a proportional intensity output at each pixel. The display screen is designed to be removable from its location within a housing.
