Don't know but feel unlikely (but only speculating). Texas Instruments digital micro mirror device is not temperature controlled and in fact runs very hot due to high intensity of light being dumped on it. It is used in digital motion picture projectors and has about 1,000,000 mirrors in about 0.5 inch square chip. These mirrors only tilt on one axis and go to stops in each direction. Mirrors in Chronos device would appear to move on at least 2 axes and have multiple or analog positioning. Could be temperature sensitive but I would guess some form of closed loop control might be used. Does anyone have more info on how this device works? Perhaps tonight I'll look for a web-site for them and also look for patents in US and Europe. Mike
