Problems solved by technology

However, if these elements are used as beam shaping means, the wavelength and incident angle to be used are limited.
Therefore, the utilization of these elements as beam shaping means is not suitable for homogenization or correct beam shaping of light intensity for most wavelengths or multiple light sources
Furthermore, as a result of the use of these elements as beam shaping members, it is easy to generate sites of power concentration due to zero-order light
[0014] The above-mentioned conventional proposals have not sufficiently studied the optical design for realizing the reduction of speckle noise, high brightness, and high safety while maintaining the miniaturization of laser projectors

Abstract

A laser projector is characterized by being provided with a laser beam source unit (110) for emitting a laser beam, a spatial beam modulation element (120) for modulating the laser beam and generating image light, a projection lens (130) for emitting the image light, a beam shaping element (160) for forming the beam shape of the laser beam into the shape of the spatial beam modulation element (120), and a pupil homogenization element (140) for homogenizing the light intensity distribution of an exit pupil (131) of the projection lens, the pupil homogenization element (140) being disposed between the laser beam source unit (110) and the beam shaping element (160).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a laser projector using laser light as a light source. Background technique [0002] In recent years, projectors that project images on various projection surfaces such as screens have become popular. Projectors generally use bulb light sources. However, bulb light sources have a short lifespan. In addition, the color reproduction area of ​​bulb light sources is limited. In addition, the bulb light source has disadvantages such as large light source area and low light utilization efficiency. [0003] In order to solve these problems, try to use a laser light source as the light source of the projector. Compared with the bulb light source, the laser light source has a longer life and stronger directivity. Therefore, the laser light source can easily achieve high light utilization efficiency. In addition, the laser light source is monochromatic, enabling a large color reproduction area. Therefore, projectors utiliz...
