Multi-wavelength display system

Claim 1

A multi-wavelength display system comprising a. a plurality of electro-magnetic radiation source means, each of different wavelength and all within the frequency range of 10 9 to 10 17 cycles per second; b. an arrangement of groups of waveguides having input and output ends, one group for each radiation source; c. wave distribution means connected to pass radiation waves from each of said source means sequentially to the input ends of an associated group of said waveguides; d. support means and means forming on said support a raster type display formed of said output ends of said waveguides arranged in a pattern to provide horizontal and vertical scan from said wave distribution means; e. analog data input means for supplying voltage signals representative of an image and modulator means for receiving said input electrical signals to vary the intensity of radiation beam from each radiation source to reproduce on said display said image in radiation source wavelengths; said wave distribution means including f. means holding said input ends of each group of waveguides in sequential circular arrangement inwardly directed toward a common axial center, each group in a plane parallel to its adjacent group; g. reflector means including stationary reflectors and a rotatable reflector; h. said stationary reflectors being positioned each to pass waves from as associated radiation source to said rotatable reflector and said rotatable reflector being positioned, with respect to said wavelength input ends, centrally and concentric therewith to redirect radiation rays from each of said radiation source to an associated group of said input ends of said waveguide groups in sequential manner as said rotatable reflector is rotated; and i. means for rotating said rotatable reflector at a speed selected to provide a desired raster scan rate.
