This projector uses Wavien’s proprietary Recycling LED Technology (RLT™) in conjunction with a 0.45” WXGA DLP ™ from Texas Instruments.  Wavien’s RLT™ system dramatically reduces the number of components required in the illumination section of the projector, thus, lowers the cost and increases reliability of the system.  This system configuration is available from Wavien for licensing to pocket and pico projectors makers.

“Instead of combining light from separate red, green and blue LED packages, Wavien’s RLT™ technology combines all 3 colored LED’s into a single package.  The component count is reduced from the 17 used in traditional systems to component to 6 in this configuration, and potentially to 3 in the next generation,” stated Dr. Kenneth Li, President and CEO of Wavien, Inc., who is also the inventor of the DPR technology.  Dr. Li added: “This unique patented design enables a significant reduction in the cost and increase in consistency in manufacturing, which will be a major determining factor for integrating the pico projector into cell phones at high volumes.”
