Abstract

We present a means for forming images using micromirror arrays. Using an array of 2D tilt mirrors it is possible to create an image whose resolution is much higher than the number of mirrors. We present several types of simulations, including images produced by graphical ray tracing for linear MEMS array of containing 1 and 2 mirrors, and general NxN configurations.
