Hello all!
I wanted to run an idea past you to see if it would be feasible.
I am combining 5 showwx+ laser pico projectors to create a brighter image.
I also wanted to create a wider color area of display by using a yellow laser.
One of the problems here is that adding a fourth channel would require a 4-dimensional color space to fully utilize that extra channel. To really utilize this sort of new feature would require a whole new image recording system which I am working on. (The ideal would be that all color information in video would be in device-independent xy color space instead of RGB.)
Is it possible to replace one of my red laser diodes with a yellow and replace my blue with a 490nm cyan laser diode for better color control? My other laser projectors would be displaying RGB as well, just one or two would be displaying yellow for green/red and cyan instead of blue. (A turquoise primary would increase the RGB gamut significantly.)
Y in YUV isn't Yellow, it's Luma. Still, the imperfect conversion between YUV and RGB means that a fourth primary could make it possible to more accurately show YUV data on an RGBY display.
(The forth color is useful if the signal is coming in as CYMK, but its not, and it isn't switching to CYMK internally, its RGBY which is some completely different color model.)
I know the showwx+ analog drivers are ultra fast but was wondering if there is a yellow diode (and cyan) I can get to work with this application and its on board drivers.
Thanks!
