Laser display with improved brightness control

A laser display system 100 is configured to increase the dynamic range of a laser diode by modulating an operating current applied to the laser diode based on a desired sequence of brightness levels and a temperature of the laser diode. In some embodiments, a measuring circuit measures a voltage of the laser diode at a given current, which indirectly indicates the temperature of the laser diode, thus obviating the need for a direct measurement of temperature. In addition, in some embodiments, the measuring circuit identifies a threshold current of the laser diode based on a range of current values at which values of the current multiplied by the derivative of the voltage against the current vary relatively rapidly. By compensating for temperature effects and identifying the threshold current, a driver of the laser diode more precisely controls light output of the laser diode across an increased dynamic range.
