Device modulates amplitude, direction and/or phase of incoming light

This post is sponsored by Texas Instruments. Featuring over 4 million micromirrors, the high-resolution 0.9 WQXGA digital micromirror device (DMD) from Texas Instruments (TI) is a spatial light modulator (SLM) that modulates the amplitude, direction, and/or phase of incoming light. The device's advanced light control technology has numerous applications in the industrial, medical, and consumer markets. The DLP9000 enables bigger build sizes and fine resolution for 3D printing applications. The high resolution has the direct benefit of scanning larger objects for 3D machine vision applications. Reliable function and operation of the DLP9000 requires that it be used in conjunction with two DLPC900 digital controllers. This dedicated chipset provides a robust, high resolution WQXGA, and high speed system solution.
