DLP Projector

Digital Light Processing (DLP) 

DLP is a set of chipsets based on optical micro-electro-mechanical technology that uses a digital micromirror device.

 It was originally developed in 1987 by Larry Hornbeck of Texas Instruments. While the DLP imaging device was invented by Texas Instruments, the first DLP-based projector was introduced by Digital Projection Ltd in 1997. 

 Digital Projection and Texas Instruments were both awarded Emmy Awards in 1998 for the DLP projector technology.
