View projection matrix based high performance low latency display pipeline

A digital projector for applying projection transformation and image processing to an input image c, said projector comprising:

• an input for receiving said input image c;
• an array of projection pixels;
• a data processing unit for implementing the following steps:
• (A) accessing a projection transformation matrix for the projection transformation;
• (B) multiplying the projection transformation matrix with a matrix for the image processing;
• (C) multiplying the result of step (B) with said image c, wherein said image c is arrange in matrix format;
• and
• wherein:
• any processing operations to be applied to said image c prior to said image c being subjected to projection transformation are identified as pre-processing operations and are arranged into arranged into a distinct matrices (A, B, C, . . . );
• any processing operations to be applied to said image c after said image c is subjected to projection transformation are identified as post-processing operations and are arranged into arranged into a distinct matrices (U, V, W, . . . );
• and
• in step (B), result of step (B) the result of the following matrices multiplication:
• (UVW . . . ) (projection transformation matrix) (ABC . . . ).
