Abstract
A two-dimensional illuminating array comprising discretely addressable pixel portions (e.g. a light valve array) is imaged by lens means onto optical mapping means (e.g. a light diffracting or refracting array). The mapping means re-images the pixel portions of the illuminating array as a predetermined line pixel pattern at a linear pixel region.
