                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
               This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of               
          claims 1-15.                                                                
               The invention is directed to compensating for motion of                
          image planes in color sequential displays.  In certain types of             
          color image displays, color image planes are displayed                      
          sequentially, wherein light of various colors sequentially                  
          illuminates a common spatial light modulator so that the                    
          modulator modulates the intensity of each respective color                  
                                         -1-
