Pixels on a computer screen are complicated too, but at least the logic behind them is simple. These micro mirrors are insane! I'm blown away that they can produce the giant image on a movie screen, thanks for the great footage and research here.

I was just recommended to watch this. Awesome channel! Hope the KZread algorithms will work for you to get the views you deserve.

Whoever invented this micro-mirrors, is a genius.

Your content is super interesting mate! I just rescued an IBM Selectric from landfill, searched and your video came up, loving watching your other ones too!

My first real job in 1987 was as a trainee office equipment technician for IBM, and I pretty much exclusively worked on the selectrics. They were a dog to work on, but very clever.

The mirrors switch at up to 10k times per second, which is how brightness is approximated.

Now that is quite fascinating! Very well done, thankyou for showing all of this!

Honestly quite incredible
