Optical unit |
摘要 |
An optical unit includes a light source that emits light to be projected onto a screen, one or a plurality of optical elements that controls a spread of a beam of light from the light source to the screen, a combining element that combines the light emitted from the light source, and a scanning element. The light source outputs an optical beam that will generate an elliptically shaped beam spot on the screen, the beam spot having a major axis substantially perpendicular to a scanning direction, and the light source is driven with pulse width modulation (PWM) so that one driven pulse corresponds to one beam spot on the screen. |

1. An optical unit comprising:
a light source that emits light to be projected onto a screen; one or a plurality of optical elements that controls a spread of a beam of light from the light source to the screen; a combining element that combines the light emitted from the light source; and a scanning element; wherein the light source outputs an optical beam that will generate an elliptically shaped beam spot on the screen, the beam spot having a major axis substantially perpendicular to a scanning direction; and wherein the light source is driven with pulse width modulation (PWM) so that one driven pulse corresponds to one beam spot on the screen. |
