A digital imaging technology creat-
ed by Texas Instruments. It creates
a digital picture by projecting
images with a scan converter, a
color filter wheel and thousands of
microscopic mirrors. DLP can be

this rectangular shape from the
"full frame," or almost square 3:4
aspect ratio of normal televisions. ❑
