Abstract
A sequential illumination system for a visual display unit has a light source emitting a polychromatic light beam towards the visual display unit within a wavelength range having at least three primary colors, and a color wheel provided with at least three transmissive or reflective segments for transmitting the light beam along an optical path in such a way that they successively cut the direction of propagation of the beam. The colour segments are distributed on the wheel in such an order that the differences of energies perceived by the visual organ of a standard observer (visual stimuli), are as equivalent as possible during the intersegment transitions, when the segments pass along the optical path of the beam. The illumination system can be used for movie overhead projection devices.
