A method for configuring a digital light projector (DLP) of an augmented reality (AR) display device is described. A light source component of the DLP projector is configured to generate a single red-green-blue color sequence repetition per image frame. The AR display device identifies a color sequence of the light source component of the DLP projector and tracks a motion of the AR display device. The AR display device adjusts an operation of the DLP projector based on the single red-green-blue color sequence repetition, the color sequence of the light source component of the DLP projector, and the motion of the AR display device.

System for using digital light projectors for augmented reality

Disclosed are systems and methods for adaptively adjusting brightness of a wearable device projection system. The systems and methods perform operations comprising: causing projection elements of the AR wearable device to project an image; receiving a measure of ambient light from an ambient light sensor; adjusting one or more hardware parameters of the projection elements of the AR wearable device based on the measure of ambient light; modifying one or more color values of the image displayed by the projection elements of the AR wearable device based on the measure of ambient light; and projecting the image with the modified color values using the projection elements of the AR wearable device with the adjusted one or more hardware parameters.
