What is DLP® Discovery™?

DLP technology is well known for powering office and classroom projectors, HDTVs and digital cinema solutions. Since 1996, more than 18 million DLP chipsets have been shipped as part of these systems. Soon after DLP chips were commercially introduced, developers and researchers working in areas outside traditional projection displays began requesting access to DLP technology to help fuel their innovative ideas. In response to these requests and in an effort to accelerate innovation, Texas Instruments introduced the DLP Discovery series.

The DLP Discovery kits offer developers a flexible platform to design products using the proven reliability of DLP technology. From portable pico projection to high resolution (up to 1080p) and very high performance (2xLVDS transfer speed) spatial light modulation, DLP Discovery is a versatile tool for research and product development.

What you can do with DLP® technology?

Companies and engineers all over the world are using DLP Discovery products to fuel their innovative ideas that frequently change the way we live and make the products we use better. DLP Discovery products enable a myriad of solutions beyond traditional projection displays including:

• Medical - An accurate and non-invasive way to look into the body.
• Direct Imaging Lithography - Improve throughput performance of high precision PCB manufacturing.
• Optical Metrology - Precise and real-time measurements for many industries – from dermatology to in-line inspection systems.
• Hyper Spectroscopy - Base quality decisions on the ability to thoroughly analyze material composition - detect impurities, identify chemical compositions, and so much more.
