Great video but I find the colour wheel thingy harder to get my head
around than the chip. The video makes it look very crude indeed.




Yep, for all its 21C technology, I still think it's all a bit *Logie

The answer of course is 3 (dedicated RGB) DMD chips but that wouldn't be
cheap and there's not even too many movie theatres with that technology
yet - according to my 'digital source'! (Oldest son!)
