This technique uses multiple halftones per frame in the pre-modulator synchronized with a modified bit sequence in the primary modulator to produce a compensation image that reduces the errors produced by the sub-optimal PSF. The invention includes the application to dual modulation and dual modulated 3D viewing systems.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2021Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: Dolby Laboratories Licensing CorporationInventor: Martin J.
