(Direct drive Image Light Amplifier) A JVC lightvalve technology. The ILA is a reflective mode active matrix liquid crystal display, also referred to as LCOS, Liquid Crystal On Single crystal silicon. The back side of the 0.9 inch diagonal liquid crystal is currently being driven by a 1365 by 1024 active matrix CMOS array. The pixel electrodes of the device have a 93% aperture ratio.
