Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to display technology, and more particularly, to projection display technology. Background Art
[0002] A projection display device can project an image onto a screen, and has an advantage in screen size over a conventional flat panel display device. Typically, a conventional projection device only uses a single projector to complete projection, and the resolution of the image is determined by the resolution of the single projector. When the application scenario requires high-resolution projection display, conventional projection devices will encounter bottlenecks. Therefore, the present invention proposes a high-resolution projection display device, which realizes image projection through multiple projectors, thereby realizing high-resolution image display. Summary of the invention
[0003] The present invention provides a high-resolution projection display device. Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of the high-resolution projection display device is shown in FIG. The high-resolution projection device is composed of a grating screen, a first projector, a second projector, a third projector, and a fourth projector.
[0004] Furthermore, the first to fourth projectors are arranged to form an array, and the light rays of the projected images have the same linear polarization direction.
[0005] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 The grating curtain is composed of a polarization grating, a quarter wave plate and a diffuse reflection layer, which are placed in sequence. The polarization grating is prepared by punching a polarizing plate, and the through holes formed are arranged in an array. The linear polarized light projected by the first to fourth projectors is orthogonal to the polarization direction allowed to pass through the polarizing plate, and the projected light can only pass through the through holes on the polarizing plate. The optical axis direction of the quarter wave plate is at an angle of 45 degrees to the polarization direction of the projected light.
[0006] Furthermore, the number and arrangement of pixels of the images projected by the first to fourth projectors are consistent with the number and arrangement of through holes in the through hole array on the polarization grating, and the position of the pixels of the image projected by each projector coincides with the position of the through holes. The projection position calibration adopts the existing trapezoidal calibration and projection area calibration technology.
[0007] For further information, please refer to Figure 3 , because of the different spatial positions of the first to fourth projectors, the light they project passes through the same through hole on the polarization grating and can form four pixel spots with different spatial positions on the diffuse reflection layer through a 1 / 4 wave plate. These pixel spots formed through all the through holes can be combined to form an image and displayed in all directions. Assuming that the first to fourth projectors can provide N pixels, a total of 4N pixels can be realized on the diffuse reflection layer, thereby achieving a high-resolution projection display with 4 times the pixels.
[0008] For details, please refer to Figure 4 , after the light projected by the first to fourth projectors passes through the through hole on the polarization grating, it is converted into circularly polarized light by the 1 / 4 wave plate. After the circularly polarized light reaches the diffuse reflection layer and is reflected, it will pass through the 1 / 4 wave plate again, and thus be modulated into linearly polarized light whose polarization direction is orthogonal to the polarization direction of the incident light, so that it can pass through the polarization grating and be projected in all directions in space.
[0009] Optionally, referring to the display principle of higher resolution formed by the first to fourth projectors, more projectors may be provided for image projection.
[0010] In the present invention, since multiple projectors can be used for image display, the total number of pixels of the displayed image is the sum of the number of pixels of the multiple projectors. Compared with the traditional projection device that only uses a single projector, the present invention can significantly improve the resolution of the image. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0022] Example 1
[0023] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the high-resolution projection display device 010 provided in this embodiment. In the figure, the x coordinate represents the horizontal direction in space, the y coordinate represents the vertical direction in space, and the z coordinate represents the direction perpendicular to the xy plane. Figure 1 The present embodiment provides a high-resolution projection display device 010 , which is composed of a grating screen 100 , a first projector 210 , a second projector 220 , a third projector 230 , and a fourth projector 240 .
[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 The first to fourth projectors 210-240 are arranged to form an array, and the light of the projected image is vertically linearly polarized light.
[0025] Please refer to Figure 2 The grating curtain 100 is composed of a polarization grating 110, a quarter wave plate 120 and a diffuse reflection layer 130, which are placed in sequence. The polarization grating 110 is prepared by punching a polarizing plate, and the through holes formed are arranged in an array. The polarizing plate allows horizontal polarized light to pass through, but does not allow vertical polarized light to pass through, so the projected light can only pass through the through holes on the polarizing plate. The optical axis direction of the quarter wave plate is at an angle of 45 degrees to the polarization direction of the projected light.
[0026] The resolution of the images projected by the first to fourth projectors 210-240 is 1920×1080, and the through holes on the polarization grating 110 also form an array of 1920×1080. Using the existing trapezoidal calibration and projection area calibration technology, the position of the pixel of the image projected by each projector coincides with the position of the through hole.
[0027] Please refer to Figure 3 , the first to fourth projectors 210-240 have different spatial positions, and after the light they project passes through the same through hole on the polarization grating, it can form four pixel light spots 310-340 with different spatial positions on the diffuse reflection layer through a 1 / 4 wave plate. The pixel light spots formed by all 1920×1080 through holes can be combined to form an image and displayed in all directions. Since the first to fourth projectors 210-240 can provide 1920×1080 pixels, a total of 3840×2160 pixels can be realized on the diffuse reflection layer, thereby realizing a high-resolution projection display with 4 times the pixels.
[0028] For details, please refer to Figure 4 , the vertically polarized light projected by the first to fourth projectors 210-240 passes through the through hole on the polarization grating 110, and is converted into circularly polarized light by the 1 / 4 wave plate 120. After the circularly polarized light reaches the diffuse reflection layer and is reflected, it will pass through the 1 / 4 wave plate again, and thus be modulated into horizontally polarized light. Therefore, the reflected horizontally polarized light can pass through the polarization grating 110 and be projected in all directions in space.
[0029] In the present invention, since four projectors can be used for image display, the total number of pixels of the displayed image is the sum of the number of pixels of the four projectors. Compared with a traditional projection device that only uses a single projector, the present invention can significantly improve the resolution of the image.
