Abstract

A white balance adjustment method and apparatus for a single DLP projector system is disclosed. The projection system includes a solid state light source device, a sync signal generator, and a controller. The light source device generates an output which is a repeating color sequence of at least two primary color lights. The sync signal generator generates a synchronization signal representing a timing of the color sequence of the output light. The controller calculates drive current values corresponding to each of the two primary colors based on a target white balance and measured color properties of the output light, and supplies a modulated drive current to the light source device. The modulated drive current is synchronized to the sync signal and has the calculated drive current values. As a result, a white light having the target white balance is output.
