A new two‐panel architecture is discussed for projection systems based on liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) panels. It is enabled by ColorLink's ColorSwitch™ and ColorSelect™ technologies. A first prototype has demonstrated performance of 325:1 contrast and 400 lumens using a UHP 120W lamp. This paper will cover system design and function, and will include a comparison of performance to alternative single and three panel approaches.
