Abstract

A colored light generating element can be configured to, while in an active state, pulse between an off state and an on state. A substantially constant offset voltage or current can be applied to the colored light generating element during a predetermined time interval when the light generating element is in the off state so as to cause the colored light generating element to emit, during the off state, some amount of light greater than a minimum amount of light that the light generating element is capable of generating while part of an active system. In some implementations, two or more offset voltages or currents can be applied. Implementations may include a preprocessor configured to receive an image signal and optimize color saturation of the image signal, such as by limiting and non-linearly increasing color saturation. Implementations may include multiple colored light generating elements.
