Display control apparatus, image projection system, and control method
A display control apparatus comprises a setting unit that sets a target overlap width with respect to an overlap region, in which at least two of adjacent projection images of a plurality of projection images projected by a plurality of projection devices overlap each other, an image obtaining unit that obtains a captured image obtained by capturing the plurality of projected projection images, a calculation unit that calculates the overlap width of the overlap region of the at least two adjacent projection images on the basis of the captured image, and an indicator generation unit that generates, on the basis of the overlap width, an adjustment indicator that guides a positional adjustment of the projection image such that the at least two adjacent projection images overlap each other by the target overlap width.
Electronically controlled light valve and display apparatus having high transmittance and high reflectivity
Provided are a display apparatus and an electrically controlled light valve including a first substrate, a second substrate disposed opposite to the first substrate, a first transparent conductive layer disposed on the first substrate, a second transparent conductive layer disposed on the second substrate, a first liquid layer disposed between the first and the second transparent conductive layers, a second liquid layer disposed between the first and the second transparent conductive layers and reflective particles. The first and the second liquid layers are respectively adjacent to the first and the second transparent conductive layers. The first liquid layer includes a polar liquid. The second liquid layer includes a non-polar liquid. Each reflective particle has a conductive body and a surface modification layer covering the conductive body.
