To provide a light source unit which can be formed compact in size while contributing to enhancement in luminance and a projector including this light source unit, there is provided a light source unit including a first light source which emits light in a range of first wavelengths, and a second light source which emits light in a range of second wavelengths which is different from the range of first wavelengths, wherein the first light source and the second light source each include a long wavelength light emitting portion and a short wavelength light emitting portion, the long wavelength light emitting portion emitting, of lights of different wavelengths which exist in a range of light wavelengths producing light of similar colors, light of a long wavelength, the short wavelength light emitting portion emitting light of a short wavelength.

Color night vision system and method

A system may include a processor, a night vision sensor, and an objective lens assembly comprising four lenses. Each of a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, and a fourth lens may be configured to project a real world scene onto one of four portions of the night vision sensor. The night vision sensor may be configured to provide four images of the real world scene from the objective lens assembly to the processor. The processor may be configured to: receive a first image, a second image, a third image, and a fourth image from the night vision sensor; generate color night vision image data based at least on the first image, the second image, the third image, and the fourth image; and output the color night vision image data.
