Color image generation systems are disclosed for the reproduction of real or virtual, two-dimenional or three-dimensional, color, or monochrome images and their applications, in particular for television or video applications, and printing applications. Integrated-optical structures are used on a mount, in particular a substrate. An image is generated by deflecting color light beams generated into a viewing space, which deflection is effected in synchronism with color setting and intensity- or amplitude modulation of the light. All electronic and optical assemblies for color image generation may be integrated on a mount either monolithically or in hybrid fashion. The color generation system may be implemented as an encased module.

[ What is claimed:] [1.] A color image generation comprising:at least one light source for emitting light of at least one wavelength or one wavelength range;at least one optical waveguide responsive to said light emitted by said light source;at least one controllable modulation device;means for beam shaping and beam deflection;one control unit being coupled to said at least one controllable modulation device for controlling at least one of intensity- or amplitude modulation and color modulation of said light as well as to said means for beam shaping and beam deflection;said means for beam shaping and beam deflection by which said at least one of intensity- or amplitude modulated and color modulated light is adapted to being deflected in at least one spatial direction using said control unit in synchronism with modulation control, and an image field are adapted to being written to in digital fashion or in an analog fashion;wherein, between said at least one light source and said means for beam shaping and beam deflection, a mount is arranged on which at least one optical waveguide is mounted such that a minimum of one optical waveguide capable of transmitting efficiently the wavelengths or wavelength ranges according to a predetermined application injects intensity- or amplitude modulated and/or color modulated light into said means for beam shaping and beam deflection.
