The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a microprojector for a projection display, wherein the microprojector comprises a support on which a projector lens array with a plurality of projector lenses is arranged, wherein on a side of the support facing away from the projector lens array, an object structure array with a plurality of e.g. identical object structures is arranged, wherein at least one projector lens is associated with one object structure such that the projections of the object structures superpose through the projector lenses to form a full image, wherein e.g. the distance between a projector lens and the associated object structures corresponds to the focal length of the respective projector lens, wherein on the object structure array, a condenser lens array is arranged such that in case of an illumination of the condenser lens array, a Köhler illumination of the object structures or projector lens associated with the respective condenser lenses is permitted.

An electronic device includes a display panel, a first optical part, and a second optical part including a diffraction optical element having a diffraction grating. The display panel include a first display area for displaying a first image having a first color, a second display area disposed adjacent to the first display area to display a second image having a second color different from the first color, and a third display area disposed adjacent to the second display area to display a third image having a third color different from the first color and the second color.

There is provided a screen capable of sufficiently reducing speckles. A screen for displaying an image by being irradiated with a light beam from a projector, is provided with a plurality of particles each including a first part and a second part different in dielectric constant, a particle layer having the plurality of particles, and electrodes which form an electric field for driving the particles of the particle layer by applying a voltage to the particle layer.

A projection screen, comprising a screen substrate and a plurality of light reflecting portions, wherein the light reflecting portion is arranged on an incident side of the screen substrate, and has a first surface and a second surface that face different directions, the first surface facing an incident direction of projection light, and the plurality of light reflecting portions are continuously arranged on the screen substrate to form a structure of sawtooth shape, wherein a light absorbing layer is provided on the second surface; and a wavelength-selection filter layer is provided on the first surface, and the wavelength-selection filter layer is configured to reflect the projection light and transmit and absorb at least part of ambient light.

A projector of this invention reduces light quantity loss and is capable of achieving a projected image retaining a desired hue. The projector includes; a color separation optical system configured to separate light from a light source into red light, green light, and blue light; light modulation apparatus configured to modulate each of the red light, the green light, and the blue light in accordance with image information to generate image light; a color composition optical system configured to composite the image light of the modulated red light, the image light of the modulated green light, and the image light of the modulated blue light; a projection optical system configured to project the composited image light; and a retardation element and a polarizing element, which are arranged between the color composition optical system and the projection optical system in the stated order from a color composition optical system side.

A projection apparatus includes a screen, a reel, a projection display structure and a control assembly. The projection display structure is configured to project at least one image to be displayed. Each image to be displayed includes an optical image with content. The screen is configured to display at least one optical image with content in the at least one image to be displayed. The control assembly is connected to the reel and is configured to control the reel to rotate. The reel is further connected to the screen and is configured to drive the screen to move when rotating. The control assembly is further connected to the projection display structure, and the control assembly is further configured to control the projection display structure to project the optical image with content in the image to be displayed onto an unfolded portion of the screen.

A general purpose image and visual effects display apparatus, with associated methods, which is comprised of an array of independently angled reflective or refractive elements wherein the varying angle pattern of each element across said array is designed to reflect or refract specifically designed light and color sources as well as fortuitously located existing colors, in precisely determined patterns, to make apparent to designated viewing or receiving locations a wide range of complex visual effects.

A projection control device according to the invention includes a projection module configured to project a correcting image in which a marker including a first polygon and a second polygon disposed inside the first polygon is provided in a predetermined position in such a manner as to be picked up by an image pickup device, and at least one of sides of the first polygon is not parallel to sides of the second polygon.

Display systems and methods are disclosed for displaying images, while preventing or reducing unintended viewing. A projector is provided that emits light toward a viewing surface at three discrete wavelength ranges to create an image. A light-absorbing substrate is also provided, disposed between the viewing surface and the unintended viewer, incorporating narrow-band absorbers that selectively absorb light within the three wavelength ranges, thus reducing or eliminating the image perceived by the unintended viewer.

A projection apparatus including a light source section, a projection section that projects light outputted from the light source section, and a control section that acquires captured image data produced by an imaging section, identifies a region of a projection target contained in the acquired captured image data and an image captured position of the region in the captured image data, determines a projection range over which the projection section projects light and a wavelength band of the light to be projected over the projection range based on the identified region and image captured position, and controls the projection section to cause the projection section to project light in the determined wavelength band over the determined projection range.
