An image display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes an image display unit, a calculator, and a notification section. The image display unit includes an emission surface and displays an image by emitting light from the emission surface. The calculator calculates a reference distance from the emission surface, the reference distance serving as a determination criteria for an influence of emitted light that is emitted from the image projection section. The notification section notifies about information on the influence of the emitted light on the basis of the calculated reference distance.

A projector includes an apparatus casing, a light source module, a flow generating device, a sensing module, and a power module. The light source module is disposed inside the apparatus casing and includes a light-emitting part and a lampshade surrounding the light-emitting part. The flow generating device can generate an air flow for dissipating heat by the light source module. The sensing module is disposed in the apparatus casing and includes a thermo-sensitive component disposed near the lampshade and located in a flowing path of the air flow. The power module is disposed in the apparatus casing and electrically connected to the light source module and the sensing module.
