One application I can think of would be bouncing RGB colors off of three digitally modulated mirrors (like the Texas Instruments DLP chip), then combining the reflected beams into one. You could project a movie onto a screen from a mile away.

It seems like this could also be used for cheaper tri-color (or quad-color) holography. Such features are used as security elements in passports and banknotes.
