The working principle of the DLP (Digital Light Processing) lens shown in the figure is as follows:
The projection tubes in the diagram generate the image signals. These signals are then processed and projected through the projection lenses. The Fresnel lens plays a crucial role in this process. It has a convergence function, which helps to focus the light emitted from the projection tubes and direct it more efficiently towards the biconvex lens screen.
The biconvex lens screen has a dual function. Firstly, it forms a plane where the images are displayed. Secondly, it has a diffuse reflection function. This means that the light from the projection lenses, after hitting the biconvex lens screen, is scattered in various directions. This diffuse reflection ensures that the image can be viewed clearly from different angles within a certain range.
The reflector in the setup is used to redirect the light path. It reflects the light from the projection tubes and lenses towards the biconvex lens screen, optimizing the use of light and improving the overall efficiency of the projection system.
In essence, the DLP lens system works by converting electrical image signals into light signals through the projection tubes. The projection lenses, Fresnel lens, reflector, and biconvex lens screen work in concert to focus, redirect, and diffuse the light, ultimately presenting a clear and visible image on the screen. This combination of components enables accurate and efficient image projection, making it suitable for applications such as rear projection televisions.
