See full text

A prism (13) for use in a projection system which employs a digital light panel (35) is provided. The prism includes first (19) and second (21) spaced part surfaces which are oriented such that: (a) light from a light source (33) will pass through the spaced apart surfaces to the digital light panel; (b) light from 'on' pixels will undergo total internal reflection at the second surface (21) and be directed into the acceptance angle of a projection lens (39); and (c) light from 'off' pixels which reflects from the second surface will be directed away from the lens' acceptance angle.
