1. A reflective display comprising a light reflective layer arranged on a substrate to form a plurality of light reflective microfacets alternating with lower reflectivity surfaces having a lower reflectivity relative to the light reflective microfacets, wherein each of the light reflective microfacets and the lower reflectivity surfaces is a flat rectangular surface, and wherein the light reflective microfacets are configured to display an image by reflecting light incident thereon from a projector towards a viewing position by specular reflection without being further reflected.
