PROJECTOR AND IMAGE PROJECTING METHOD

摘要

This projector includes: multiple image forming means (7R, 7G, 7B) each having an image forming surface provided with multiple micromirrors; multiple reflecting means (6R, 6G, 6B) that are provided so as to respectively reflect multiple image beams formed by the image forming means (7R, 7G, 7B); a beam combining means (8) that receives the multiple image beams via the multiple reflecting means (6R, 6G, 6B) and emits a combined image beam in which the multiple image beams are combined such that the propagation directions thereof coincide; and a projecting means (9) that projects the combined image beam emitted from the beam combining means (8). At least two of the image forming means (7R, 7G, 7B) are disposed such that the image forming surfaces thereof lie in the same plane.
