A transparent screen which displays an image projected from a projector. The transparent screen includes a display panel including a diffusion film which diffuses projection light from the projector, and a tinted film which is disposed to be remoter from the projector than the diffusion film is and has a transmittance which is variable. The transparent screen includes a controller which performs control to decrease the transmittance of the tinted film when an illuminance of a site where the transparent screen is installed is equal to or higher than a first threshold, and performs control to increase the transmittance of the tinted film when the illuminance is equal to or lower than a second threshold lower than the first threshold.

A backlight module and a display device are provided. The backlight module includes a first light-emitting component and a second light-emitting component. The first light-emitting component includes a regular light guide plate, and an angle between a light emitted by the first light-emitting component and a first direction is less than or equal to a first preset angle, and the first direction is perpendicular to the first direction. The second light-emitting component includes a collimated light guide plate, an angle between a light emitted by the second light-emitting component and the first direction is less than or equal to a second preset angle, and the second preset angle is less than the first preset angle.

A display apparatus configured for displaying different images at the same time, a vehicle having the same, and a method for controlling the same, may include a backlight device; and a display panel separate from the backlight device and configured to output an image using light of the backlight device, and the backlight device includes a first light source device configured to emit light; a second light source device separate from the first light source device, and a light guide plate disposed between the first light source device and the second light source device, and provided with a light guide portion configured to guide light in a first optical path when the light of the first light source device is incident and configured to guide light in a second optical path when the light of the second light source device is incident.

Provided is an image display device equipped with a see-through display function allowing the background to be seen through. In a liquid crystal display device (100), a transparent plate (170) is attached such that the incidence angle of source light emitted by a backlight source (160) is Brewster's angle b, and therefore, the transparent plate (170) reflects S-wave included in the source light, and allows P-wave included in ambient light incident from the back side to be transmitted therethrough and illuminate a liquid crystal panel (150). Thus, when the backlight source (160) is on, the viewer can see an image displayed on the background, whereas when the backlight source (160) is off, only the background can be seen.

The display device includes a display panel and a backlight module on the display panel. The backlight module includes light guide plate having a light incident surface, a light emitting surface facing the display panel and a reflection surface. Two sides of the light incident surface connect the light emitting surface and the reflection surface respectively. The reflection surface includes a first periphery light guide region, a second periphery light guide region, and a middle light guide region between the first periphery light guide region and the second periphery light guide region. The first periphery light guide region includes first microstructures. The second periphery light guide region includes second microstructures. The first microstructures have first light guide inclined surfaces inclined towards the second periphery light guide region. The second microstructures have second light guide inclined surfaces inclined towards the first periphery light guide region.

A backlight module, including: a surface light source; a first light guide plate laminated with the surface light source in a thickness direction, wherein the first light guide plate is on a light-exiting side of the surface light source, and a side of the first light guide plate proximal to the surface light source comprises a plurality of first networks; and a first light source on a side surface of the first light guide plate, in which an orthographic projection of the first light source onto a plane, where a light-exiting surface of the surface light source is located, does not overlap with that of the first light guide plate onto the plane.

Provided is a display device that can be realized with a simple configuration and functions as a transparent display allowing background to be clearly seen therethrough.

When a liquid crystal panel (30) is in an ON state, polarized backlight that is incident from a polarized backlight unit (50) reaches a front surface. At this point, ambient light that is incident from a rear side also reaches the front surface. Accordingly, an observer who is on a front side of a transparent display (100) can visually recognize an image that is displayed in an overlaid manner on the background seen through the transparent display (100). In a case where the liquid crystal panel (30) is placed into an OFF state, the polarized backlight cannot reach the front surface of the transparent display (100), and the ambient light reaches the front surface. Accordingly, the observer on the front side of the transparent display (100) can visually recognize the background seen through the transparent display (100) and cannot visually recognize the image.

A piecewise light control layer includes a plurality of light control portions including a first light control portion and a second light control portion. The first light control portion is configured to restrict light having a first angular profile. The second light control portion is configured to restrict light having a second angular profile, wherein the first angular profile is different from the second angular profile.

Provided is an image display device equipped with a see-through display function allowing the background to be seen through.

In a liquid crystal display device (100), a transparent plate (170) is attached such that the incidence angle of source light emitted by a backlight source (160) is Brewster's angle b, and therefore, the transparent plate (170) reflects S-wave included in the source light, and allows P-wave included in ambient light incident from the back side to be transmitted therethrough and illuminate a liquid crystal panel (150). Thus, when the backlight source (160) is on, the viewer can see an image displayed on the background, whereas when the backlight source (160) is off, only the background can be seen.
