Horizontally scanning holography using a microelectromechanical system spatial light modulator (MEMS-SLM) can provide reconstructed images with an enlarged screen size and an increased viewing zone angle. Herein, we propose techniques to enable color image generation for a screen-scanning display system employing a single MEMS-SLM. Higher-order diffraction components generated by the MEMS-SLM for R, G, and B laser lights were coupled by providing proper illumination angles on the MEMS-SLM for each color. An error diffusion technique to binarize the hologram patterns was developed, in which the error diffusion directions were determined for each color. Color reconstructed images with a screen size of 6.2 in. and a viewing zone angle of 10.2° were generated at a frame rate of 30 Hz.
