20230393392 · 2023-12-07 ·

A head-up display system includes a display that emits a light flux and a light guide body that guides the light flux to the light-transmitting member. A light beam at a center of the light flux emitted from the display is incident while being inclined with respect to a normal direction of the incident surface of the light guide body. The light flux incident on the incident surface of the light guide body is changed in a traveling direction in the light guide body, the light flux is replicated into a plurality of light fluxes in a horizontal direction of the virtual image, and then the replicated light fluxes are further replicated in a vertical direction of the virtual image to be emitted from the emission surface so as to expand the visual recognition region. A light beam at a center of the light fluxes emitted from the light guide body is emitted toward the light-transmitting member while being inclined with respect to a normal direction of the emission surface of the light guide body.
