Chapter 2---System Description
The high intensity light beam then proceeds toward the Dichroic
Mirror Assembly. Thus, most of the IR and UV light is filtered out
before the light beam enters the more sensitive portions of the
optics, leaving only the visible portion.
Dichroic Mirror Assembly:
The condensed and filtered white
light beam enters the Dichroic Mirror Assembly which separates
(dichroic mirrors reflect only one color and pass all others) the
light into its Red, Green and Blue components. The first mirror in
the Dichroic Mirror Assembly reflects blue light to the blue
ILA
®
assembly, the second mirror reflects green light to the green
ILA
®
assembly, and the third reflects red light to the red
ILA
®
assembly.
Thus, each
ILA
®
is sent only one color of light.
Prepolarizers and Polarizing Prisms:
Each individual light beam
is polarized (directed) toward its own Polarizing Prism where it is
directed toward the output side of its
ILA
®
Assembly and
combined with the signal from the input side of the
ILA
®
Assembly.
Each of these three light beams independently combine with the
image in their own (Red, Green or Blue) color systems at the
ILA
®
assemblies as described in Section 2.2.1, Image Path.
