Ultra-High-Capacity Digital Micromirror Spatial Light Modulator (DMD)
The LBTEK ultra-high-capacity DMD spatial light modulator combines a high-performance Xilinx FPGA with multiple parallel solid-state drives, enabling on-board storage of massive image datasets while preserving the DMD's fast switching speed. Each aluminum micromirror tilts +/-12 degrees under binary CMOS control for high-efficiency reflective light-field modulation.
Solid-state storage of 2 TB (3 TB optional) lets the device stream extremely long pattern sequences without host-bandwidth bottlenecks, while TI's advanced DLP optical-control chipset supports precise internal and external synchronization for camera and motion-platform coordination.
