System and method for capturing, transmitting, and displaying an image

An image system, comprising:

• a first image projector having regions with adjustable brightness levels;
• a first image generator operable to capture a first image, receive a second image, and to generate the second image on the first image projector by directing a first electromagnetic off beam and a first electromagnetic on beam onto the regions of the first image projector, the off beam operable to change the brightness levels of the regions in a first direction and the on beam operable to generate the image by changing the brightness levels of predetermined ones of the regions in a direction opposite to the first direction;
• a second image projector having regions with adjustable brightness levels;
• and
• a second image generator coupled to the first image generator and operable to capture the second image, transmit the second image to the first image generator, receive the first image from the first image generator, and generate the second image on the second image projector by directing a second electromagnetic off beam and a second electromagnetic on beam onto the regions of the image projector, the second off beam operable to change the brightness levels of the regions in a second direction and the second on beam operable to generate the image by changing the brightness levels of predetermined ones of the regions in a direction opposite to the second direction.
