Abstract
An apparatus for high dynamic range (HDR) modulation includes one or more lasers configured to transmit respective beams of laser light with a single color mode and a PLM optically coupled to the one or more lasers. The PLM is configured to modulate the laser light to produce a first modulated light. The apparatus also includes a phosphor optically coupled to the PLM and configured to receive at least a first portion of the first modulated light from the PLM and to emit a phosphor light with multiple color modes. At least one spatial light modulator (SLM) is also optically coupled to the phosphor and configured to modulate the multiple color modes in the phosphor light and the single color mode to project a second modulated light.
