Abstract
A method of loading data into a spatial light modulator, in which a software programmable processor stores binary values for the pixels of at least a portion of the (x,y) array of a spatial light modulator. The processor stores these values in its addressable memory, and accesses them by calculating bit positions in memory words (elements), as a function of x and y and other parameters of the processor and spatial light modulator. The same concepts may be applied to reading data out of a spatial light modulator.
