Abstract
A method for controlling a lighting device that consists of at least a lighting source, a color sequential device and a single light valve consisting of an array of light processing elements that are controlled by bits, the method comprising the steps of emitting a light beam with said light source, filtering said light beam by said color sequential device to achieve a colored light beam and processing said colored light beam with a bit depth of less than 16.
Claims5
A method for reducing color break up occurring in an image projected by a light device moving during operation, wherein the light device includes at least a lighting source, a color sequential device and a single light valve comprising an array of light processing elements that are controlled by bits, comprising the steps of:
- emitting a light beam with said light source;
- filtering said light beam by said color sequential device to achieve a colored light beam with said light valve;
- and
- processing said colored light beam, wherein in each light processing element is controlled with a bit depth of less than 16 in a period between two color changes of the colored light beam.
