Abstract

A full color image projection system is provided using two non-color-specific image sources and color-specific filters. The system is capable of projecting an image using one primary color from one image source and the other two primary colors from another image source. The system uses slower speed image sources than would be required with one source alternating between three colors, and exhibits higher resolution than would be obtained from a color-specific image source.
