The answer to you question with regards to projectors is yes. Superbright LEDs will eventually lead to much lighter and brighter projection systems. Consider the now-common handheld laser pointer and compare it to the handheld pen light of seven years ago (both require the same amount of energy but one is much brighter). A laser projection system needs the equivalent of three laser sources (red, blue, and green) which can be rasterized at higher speed on almost any surface to create a color image. Given that MEMS technology has partially solved the problem of control miniturization, I expect that within five years we see projectors of this type weighing less than two pounds than are highly visible even in most daylight environments. Note: MVIS just two weeks ago hired a former Proxima (#3 in projector sales in US) executive to do market development. Obewon
