Title: Yi Li: Pioneering Innovator in Curved Screens and Projection Systems

Introduction:

Yi Li, a prominent inventor and innovator from Shenzhen, CN, has made significant contributions to the field of display technology with a total of 97 patents to his name. His latest patents, including the curved screen and method of arranging microstructure therein, and projection system, have garnered international attention for their advancements in image quality, contrast, and viewing experience. Collaborating with renowned companies such as Tencent Technology and YLX Corporation, Yi Li's innovations have pushed the boundaries of visual display technology.

Curved Screen and Method of Arranging Microstructure Therein:

Yi Li's groundbreaking invention, the curved screen, is a testament to his expertise and vision in the field of display technology. This unique design encompasses a black light-absorbing layer, a microstructure array layer, and a transparent matrix layer, arranged sequentially from the inside out. The microstructure array layer, comprising a multitude of microstructure units, is rotationally symmetrical with respect to the center line of the curved screen.

One of the key features of this invention is the V-shaped recess structure within the microstructure array layer, consisting of two intersecting inclined surfaces. These V-shaped recesses are meticulously designed to optimize the quality of projected light. By determining the angles of the V-shaped recesses in accordance with the incident angles of light rays from a projector, the curved screen achieves higher contrast, improved brightness uniformity, and an expanded field of view.

Projection Display System:

In addition to his work on curved screens, Yi Li has also made significant contributions to the field of projection display systems. His patent encompasses a sophisticated system that includes a light emitting device, a light splitting device, and multiple light modulators. This system effectively splits, modulates, and combines light from different wavelength ranges to obtain exceptional image quality and clarity.

Yi Li's projection display system incorporates a unique third light modulator, positioned either between the light emitting device and the light splitting device or in the third optical path. This modulator enables precise modulation of light, resulting in enhanced projection quality and improved control over the projected image.

Collaborations and Professional Background:

Yi Li's exceptional work has been shaped by his collaborations with renowned companies in the industry. He has contributed his expertise to TENCENT Technology (Shenzhen) Company Limited, where he worked closely with colleagues such as Fei Hu and Zuqiang Guo. Additionally, he has made significant contributions to YLX Corporation, further establishing his reputation as an influential figure in the field of display technology.

Conclusion:

Yi Li's impressive portfolio of patents and innovative contributions to the field of display technology, particularly in the areas of curved screens and projection systems, have left an indelible mark on the industry. His inventions and methods have not only enhanced the quality of visual displays but also revolutionized the viewing experience for audiences worldwide. As the industry continues to evolve, Yi Li's work will continue to inspire future generations of inventors and innovators in the realm of display technology.
