Laser Projector Opportunity (Z*Tron Vision)

2. • Iowa State University– Television/ design, University of Iowa: hands on TV/ film/
multi media/ play writing. Graduate Writer’s Workshop: Z*Tron Vision was
conceived when Kurt Vonnegut (Troyer’s teacher) asked her advice: design virtual
futuristic staging for Cat’s Cradle (Broadway). Curved depth sets were conceived.
• Hollywood/ Silicon Valley 20 years; Metatron Inc. 1992 – 2003; Metatron LLC
(Delaware) 1996 – 200? (LLC Merv Griffin Group & Metatron Inc. partners).
• Pre-Invention: Troyer represented the TRW military laser projectors to the Studios
–theme parks and entertainment Industry (Hollywood). Troyer purchased Air
Force war room wall projectors (SAC, MAC and NORAD) when mothballed (Desert
Storm). She also received boxes of studies from TRW. Troyer and team upgraded
the TRW projectors for theme park clients. TRW projectors were under FDA code.
• Patents: Troyer invented a streamlined method: more eye safe laser spatial
modulation light valves replace AOM; fuller color spectrum –true whites and
black; less speckle ; infinite focus (Z depth factor): KISS: keep it simple :
streamline ---(70% less optics in train)
Introduction: Diane Troyer

3. 3
DLP: reflective mirrors (MEMS)
Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCoS)
ILA: Light Amplifier
Arc lamps used (reflective light valves: RLV)
– Arc Lamps: not green, hot
– Power hungry, short life time (500 hours)
– Decay unevenly -- less brightness and less color
– Technician nightmare to keep arc projectors merged/ color matched
– 3D Process: Real D-- filter over lens, polarized glasses: reduces brightness
– Large arc lamps: dangerous to change (technician needs suit)
Troyer demonstrated to these clients that lasers can be
used in place of arc lamps: IMAX, Sony, Disney, Warner, Dolby,
Kodak, Panavision, Universal, Griffith Park Planetarium, Air Force, etc.
All High End Projectors use Reflective Light Valves

4. 4
• Troyer Patent Claims: Full film color spectrum: use > 635 nm. red
• User friendly: lasers can be guaranteed for over 20,000 hours
• Laser colors: no fading, no decay, simple to match
• Small foot print – lasers can be placed separate from projector head
• More light efficiency with targeted expanded laser beams
• Cost saving: no constant bulb changes, technician costs
• If right optics design: can produce infinite depth of focus
• Evans & Sutherland and Kodak used grated light valves to modulate
• Grated light valves (mothballed): less bright; artifacts, no infinite focus
Industry now recognizes lasers best: LIPA Consortium
Lasers are Better than Arc Lamps with Reflective Light Valves
Full color- Long life - Coherent light

5. 5
• Infinite depth of focus- on any surface (Z depth factor)
• Safe for eyes (reflected expanded laser beams versus direct beams)
• Vibrant full color spectrum –saturated filmic colors (purple, mustard)
• Limited speckle in moving images
• Over saturated center is eliminated
• Heat mitigation with moving lasers
• High contrast– good blacks and whites
• No color shift / does not fade over time
• No blurring artifacts (smearing in fast moving images)
• Z depth factor in each image pixel, but no pixilation artifact
• Real time adjustment to curved screens with image depth conversion

• Note: 2005: Intel developing LCOS reflective light valve display. An Intel
VP contacted Troyer about the patented approach with lasers. Intel
engineers explored Z*TV infinite focus architecture to enhance and
simplify and more competitive. Lasers were not mature and Intel dropped
the 100 million dollar display project. Many were waiting for the Intel
display and Intel stock fell. The world market is still waiting for such a
display. Finally the lasers are mature.

Laser Projector Patents- Diane Troyer

11. 11
Many companies have attempted to deliver (not successful)
Government poured in millions; Only TRW successful
Evans & Sutherland projector: problems (moth balled)
Troyer/ team had hands on with TRW projectors (upgraded)
High end industry experts provided feedback & advice
Troyer realized how to solve problems and patented process
a) Eye safety: reflect laser slots instead of direct beam out of lens.
b) Use deeper red (over 535 nm. instead of 610 nm. (orange red)
c) Open architecture: high resolution. Evolve with vendor advancement
d) Patented process: Reflective light valve: streamlined; 12 optics
e) TRW had >46 optics; Z*TV is twice optic efficiency with infinite
depth of focus, speckle control, full saturated color spectrum.

13. Laser Projector Opportunity
Assembly Modular; Strategic vendors; Deliver full component parts.
Projector base: MetaZ Kit: engine, server, storage
Lasers: modules that can be stacked for power needed
Laser Optic Box: Delivered to snap into projector
Cookie Cutter parts: Mixed and matched for applications
HIVE: holographic immersive virtual environment (platform apps)
Signage: 40 – 100 ft. wide; very bright Cinerama screen/Conventions
Example: Miller’s Girl on moon waving from a balloon far above stadium.
Huge water screens with video images instead of cartoon vector graphics
Suggest: Provide non-profit Amphitheaters: MetaSphere: Big Cinerama
Movie Screens; Planetarium; Back set staging for performances;
Z*TV better than big screens now: Compare to Caesar Palace backset
screen (Celine Dion)- cost ($9M): 100 ft. wide; stacked LED squares. Not
good TV close ups. Z*TV much Improved: MetaSphere Z*TV platform:
1/10th the cost , twice the color/ contrast/ quality with dimensional images.
Great TV and featured staging; Also with floor video for complete HIVE. .Great13

14. 14
John Deere tech. research person visited the Iowa City Z*TV
lab to see projector. He studied the Troyer patents and
interviewed Troyer. John Deere has a CAVE in Moline, Illinois
(human factors studied). Thus John Deere understands the
need for CAVE streamlining. Deere is a prime mover in virtual
reality (supported Iowa State University CAVE). Deere
purchased 24 Sony High resolution (4K) arc lamp projectors
(two for stereo) for flat wall CAVE (10 by 10 ft.).
SOLUTION: Z*TV is only way to deliver the HIVE (holographic
immersive virtual environments. Real time curved walls >14 by
14 ft. 6 - 8 projectors, ½ the cost, full colored saturated realistic
images, auto dimensional images, etc.

Patented Laser Projector Attributes
Full Spectrum Colored laser images
(Solid state lasers installed, tested, and proven: > 20,000 hours,
sturdy, ready to deliver in quantity)
Slotted expanded laser beams in general sync with imager– no
ghosting artifacts in fast moving images; high contrast
(High contrast; IF IT IS retained in expanded laser beams. IF (Infinite
Focus); IS (Instant Transformation); IS (Innate Sharpness); Expanded
laser beams retain collimation and do not bleed into the black).
Collimated laser beams are kept parallel and non-crossing to
create images with infinite depth sharpness
(Color Laser spatially modulated beams retain depth in pixel images)
Ability to be in focus on any surface, the images having
dimension; In focus images can be viewed from any angle
(Smoke, ice, water, fog, clouds, balloons, Cinerama screens)
Amplification of the images
(Large analog images do not have pixel artifacts or big squares or
reduced resolution as the images get larger).
Z*TV missing linchpin for 3D in curved space inspires new platforms

17. 17
• Laser expanded beams directed to reflective light valve (no ghosting)
• Star Field Contrast: No light bleeds into black --Laser raster
• Optical efficiency: Laser expanded beams in sync with input video
• Laser brightness contained in slots that moves on screen (not flooded)
• Parallel spatially modulated expanded laser beams to screen
• Depth Images (Z Factor); Each pixel retains infinite depth of focus
• Even distribution of slot brightness on curved or irregular surface
• Infinite focus: very little space needed with rear screens
• Concave or convex adjustments (infinite focus)
• Reduces speckle through displacement and full color spectrum
• Heat mitigation (moving expanded laser beams do not create heat)
Troyer’s Preferred Method For Design

18. Advantages: IF IT IS
Any feed is transformed (TV, Video, Streaming, etc.)
Full color spectrum vivid saturated images
Dimensional on curved dome/ simulation screens
(Foreground separate from back ground)
Amplification: sharp images w/o pixels or artifacts
Great blacks– good enough for Star Fields
Planetarium type space images
