(Digital Light Processing) A Texas Instruments technology for video projection. When the TI engineers unveiled what is now known as the Digital Micromirror Device tm, (DND) they demonstrated a chip with a 16 x 16 display. That chip became the foundation of Digital Light Processing tm technology. After more than 22 years and a myriad of innovations, DLP now displays resolutions up to 1280 x 1024.It is also know as DMD for digital micro-mirror device.
