SINGLE-PANEL PROJECTION TYPE IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS

摘要

Color lights from a red, a green, and a blue surface emitting light source (201) of rectangular shape are reflected by a rotary multi−face mirror (203) to form a rectangular illumination area of each color light moving in one direction on an image display panel (205). Each pixel of the image display panel (205) is driven by a signal corresponding to the incident color light. An image on the image display panel (205) is enlarged/projected by a projection optical system (207). The surface emitting light source (201) is arranged at a focal point of first optical means (202), so that light emitted from an arbitrary point on the surface emitting light source (201) is incident as parallel light onto the rotary multi−face mirror (203). Thus, it is possible to form an image of the surface emitting light source (201) on the image display panel (205) without any out−of−focus portion, thereby forming an image of a high resolution.
