Red, green and blue lasers and LEDs are used increasingly as the light source for projection and other display systems. The choice of the correct red, green and blue wavelengths affects many properties of the projector, especially the power consumption and the colorimetry. This paper gives criteria for choosing the correct wavelengths based on both power and colorimetry considerations.
