Mosaic additive reflectance color display screen

A method of reproducing an original image in both color and pattern, comprising the steps of

• providing a taking screen composed of nonimaged mosaic-like color filter areas;
• providing a multicolor image through said taking screen and generating thereby a separation record defining discrete areas capable of modulating optical brightness of reflected and/or transmitted radiation;
• providing a reflective display screen composed of nonimaged brightness-enhanced mosaic-like reflective color areas, corresponding in pattern, geometric extension, and mutual orientation to said mosaic-like color filter areas of said taking screen;
• and
• superposing a separation record, corresponding to or being said separation record upon said display screen to obtain blocking of any reflected return radiation from the display screen, locally selective in correspondence to said discrete areas for selectively lowering local optical brightness of the respective color areas of the display screen, the return radition from the viewing screen as locally modulated in respect of intensity by the separation record delineating a color image.

• providing a taking screen composed of nonimaged mosaic-like color filter areas;
• providing a multicolor image through said taking screen and generating thereby a separation record defining discrete areas capable of modulating optical brightness of reflected and/or transmitted radiation;
• providing a display screen, incliding a neutral color-reflective substrate, a nonimaged color mosaic system of daylight fluorescent color areas on the substrate, the color areas of the system being discrete and of relatively small size and correspond in pattern, geometric extension, and mutual orientation to said mosaic-like color filter areas of said taking screen, the color areas being comprised of first, additive primary color areas being separated from each other by second, subtractive primary color areas;
• and superimposing the separation record means upon said system of color areas so that said discrete areas outlining and defining the image, act to selectively alter the optical density of individual ones of the color areas of the system so that, upon illuminating the screen by ambient light, an image, corresponding in both color and pattern to the original image, can be seen by an observer, whereby the small size areas, as seen, act additively to the eye.
