A dual phosphor wheel projection system is provided. A first dichroic mirror directs blue light from a first blue laser to a second dichroic mirror which directs the blue light to at least one integrator. The first dichroic mirror directs blue light from a second blue laser to a first phosphor/phosphor wheel, which converts the blue light to longer wavelengths that includes red light. The second dichroic mirror directs the red light to the integrator and transmit others of the longer wavelengths. The integrator combines the red light with red light from a red laser. A third dichroic mirror directs the red light from the red laser to the integrator and directs blue light from a third blue laser to a second phosphor/phosphor wheel, which converts the blue light to respective longer wavelengths that includes green light. The third dichroic mirror transmits the green light to the integrator.

A relay lens system for a high dynamic range projector is provided. The relay lens system comprising: a light input; a light output; one or more lenses configured to relay light from the light input to the light output; and, an aperture stop configured to provide a given numerical aperture to the light being relayed through the one or more lenses, the combination of the given numerical aperture and the one or more lenses are configured to introduce a spherical aberration in the light between the light input and the light output, the spherical aberration changing a shape of a pixel in the light from an approximate square shape at the light input to a function having an upper boundary and a lower boundary based on a distance from a center of the pixel, and a pixel dimension of a dither pattern in the light entering the light input.

The present invention provides a method for measuring a blood analyte concentration of a body part comprising removing a portion or all of the blood from the body part to produce a modified body part, and recording a first absorbance value of the modified body part. This is followed by filling the body part with blood to produce a filled body part, and recording a second absorbance value of the filled body part. A difference spectrum is obtained by subtracting the first absorbance values from the second absorbance values, and a calibration algorithm for the blood analyte is applied to the difference spectrum, thereby measuring the concentration of the blood analyte. Also provided is an apparatus for determining the concentration of a blood analyte of a body part. The apparatus comprising a chamber of a size and shape to receive the body part, where the chamber comprises an element for withdrawing and reintroducing blood from the body part, when the body part is inserted within the chamber. The chamber also comprising one or more than one port for introducing electromagnetic radiation into the chamber and onto that body part, and collecting remaining electromagnetic radiation following interaction with the body part.
