Abstract
One embodiment of a display system includes a first array that defines multiple reflective devices each movable between an inactive position to reflect light to a light dump and an active position to reflect light to an imaging region, a second array that defines multiple reflective devices each movable between an inactive position to reflect light to the light dump and an active position to reflect light to the imaging region, and an activation device that projects an activation beam to the devices to move individual ones of the devices between the active position and the inactive position, wherein the first array, the second array and the activation device are housed within a single vacuum enclosure.
