8 Conclusions and Getting Started

DLP technology can enable a wide field of view in a compact and small form factor aftermarket HUD system. The high optical efficiency of DLP Pico technology facilitates bright, vivid images and low power consumption. Furthermore, the high contrast ratio of DLP technology creates an excellent transparent see-through image without any gray background.

To get started with DLP Pico technology, we recommend the following actions:

• Learn more about DLP Pico technology.
  • Read the Getting Started with TI DLP Pico Technology white paper.
  • Browse DLP products and datasheets.
  • Experiment with the DLP throw ratio and brightness calculator.
• Evaluate DLP Pico technology with an easy to use evaluation module (EVM).
• Download TI Designs reference designs to speed product development, including schematics, layout files, bill of materials, and test reports.
  • DLP2010: Ultra Mobile, Ultra Low Power Display Reference Design using DLP Technology
  • DLP3010: Portable, Low Power HD Projection Display using DLP Technology
• Find optical modules and design support.
  • Buy TI DLP Pico optical modules.
  • Contact optical module manufacturers for high volume, production-ready optical modules.
  • Contact DLP design houses for custom solutions.
• Contact your local TI sales representative or TI distributor representative.
• Check out TI's E2E community to search for solutions, get help, share knowledge and solve problems with fellow engineers and TI experts.
