DLP (digital light processing) projectors

All DLP projectors have a DMD (digital micromirror device) chip inside, covered with thousands of microscopic mirrors that allow the light to come out with the correct colors, passing through a lens to project the image.

On its own, the image produced by the DLP chip is seen in black and white. Colour images are usually produced using two methods: the single-chip method or the three-chip method. The latter uses one DMD for each primary colour (red, green, blue) which optically converge to produce a single image.

Single-chip DLP projectors alternate red, green and blue many times per second, creating a disorienting optical illusion called the "rainbow effect" that is particularly pronounced in images that have sharp edges between light and dark areas, such as presentation slides.

The difference between a DLP projector and an LCD projector lies in the way the image is projected using a lamp light source.
