Abstract
A light-emissive module (), typically utilizing one or more LEDs (R,G, andB), is configured so that the maximum intensity of the module's light emission occurs along a direction () materially non-perpendicular to the back surface () of the module's supporting body (). An active image-generating screen () contains a plurality of block facets (), each containing a plurality of the light-emissive modules arranged so that their maximum light-intensity directions are largely the same. The block facets are configured to approximate a curved surface. The maximum light-intensity directions () of the block facets are thus materially slanted to one another. The image-generating screen presents a video image. A display system suitable for a motion simulator, such as a flight simulator, is formed by combining the screen with a reflective collimator ().
