A multiplexed light field projector device and a multiplexed light field display to output a light field image is described. The projector has a projector base with a projection optical system configured to output light rays to form a projected image, a collimating optical system configured for collimation of the projected image light rays to form a second projected image, which is directed to a display optical system to produce a light field image. Light field projector devices or alternative projector devices may be used individually or in combination with one or more other projectors which can be arranged to form a multiplexed direct projection light field display. The arrangement of projector devices may have an individual or shared display optical system.

A projection apparatus, a projection method, a control device, and a computer readable medium storing a control program that enable an instruction operation for geometric processing to be easily performed are provided. A projection portion projects a projection image generated by a light modulation portion based on an input image. In a case of performing geometric processing of the projection image in a non-display region other than a display region of the projection image within a displayable region of the light modulation portion, a control device performs a control of projecting a support image showing at least a part of the displayable region from the projection portion.

An imaging system includes a light source configured to produce a plurality of spatially separated light beams. The system also includes an injection optical system configured to modify the plurality of beams, such that respective pupils formed by beams of the plurality exiting from the injection optical system are spatially separated from each other. The system further includes a light-guiding optical element having an in-coupling grating configured to admit a first beam of the plurality into the light-guiding optical element while excluding a second beam of the plurality from the light-guiding optical element, such that the first beam propagates by substantially total internal reflection through the light-guiding optical element.

A display control method includes outputting, by at least one video output device, M videos, M being an integer larger than or equal to 1, if M<N, displaying the M videos in each of M sub-areas by respectively assigning each of the M videos to each of the M sub-areas obtained by dividing a single large area in which an image is displayed by N display devices, N being an integer larger than or equal to 2, and if M=N, displaying each of the M videos by assigning each of the M videos to each of N display areas corresponding to the N display devices respectively.

A projection apparatus including a liquid crystal on silicon panel and a processor is provided. The liquid crystal on silicon panel is configured to display a plurality of phase images. The phase images include a first phase image and a second phase image. The processor is coupled to the liquid crystal on silicon panel. The processor is configured to generate and output the phase images to drive the liquid crystal on silicon panel to display the phase images. The processor generates the first phase image according to a first phase information, and the processor generates the second phase image according to the first phase image.

A first holding barrel, a first mirror bending a first optical axis of the first holding barrel at 90°, a second holding barrel, a second mirror bending a second optical axis of the second holding barrel at 90°, and a third holding barrel are disposed on an optical axis from a screen side to an image forming panel. A first connection member connects the first holding barrel including the first mirror to the second holding barrel to be rotationally movable in increments of 90°. A second connection member connects the second holding barrel and the second mirror to the third holding barrel to be rotationally movable in increments of 90°. An orientation of a display image of the image forming panel is changed based on rotational movement states of an optical axis of a first sensor and an optical axis of a second sensor to make an orientation of a projection image on the screen match an original image.
