Time multiplexed optical shutter (TMOS) is a flat panel display technology developed, patented and commercialized by Uni-Pixel Displays, Inc. TMOS is based on the principles of total internal reflection (TIR), frustration of TIR (FTIR) and field sequential colour generation (FSC). This combination of features make it suitable for applications such as mobile phones, televisions and signalling systems.〔 Larry F. Hodges, "Time-Multiplexed Stereoscopic Computer Graphics," ''IEEE Computer Graphics'' March/April 1992 (vol. 12 no. 2) pp. 20-30 DOI Bookmark:〕〔(IEEE Computer Society )〕 ==Components== A TMOS display system consists of a group of sub-systems * the ''illumination system''; colour generation is based on the conventional tristimulus model, so the system comprises a group of red, green and blue LEDs * a ''Light guide '', of high quality optical glass. The illumination system is attached to one of its edges and the other three edges are covered with mirrors to keep the reflective light inside the guide. * a ''drive control at the individual pixel level'', a simple variable capacitor architecture that works as an optical shutter for each pixel in the system. The capacitor consists on two conductive parallel planes: a transparent conductor on the light guide and a thin continuous layer of conductive material placed inside the active layer. * the ''Opcuity active layer'', the characteristic part of TMOS technology. It includes a base carrier film, a conductor and micro-optic structures that define the light output performance of the display system. These structures are facing the light guide and there are so small that there are hundreds for each pixel. of them. * the ''Drive control'' circuitry system. The initial prototype has all of the control logic programmed in a FPGA processor. A TMOS unit is arranged as a set of layers placed atop another in the following order: the light guide, a transparent conductive layer, a TFT structure and the Opcuity active layer which includes a conductive layer. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Time-multiplexed optical shutter」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
