20090168131 | IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS AND HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY - Provided is an image display apparatus that has resistance to dust and water, that is compact and lightweight, and that has see-through characteristics. The image display apparatus is provided with a display device displaying an image, a prism guiding light of the image displayed by the display device to an optical pupil, and transmitting outside light such that an outside world can be viewed therethrough, and an enclosure housing and holding the display device and part of the prism. Here, a first sealing member is provided so as to make contact with a part around the prism where image light is not reflected and with the enclosure. | 07-02-2009 |
20100284070 | Image display apparatus and head mount display - The light directed from a light source to a concave mirror and the light directed from a display device to an eyepiece optical system are intersected by each other in a layout. This allows the light source, the concave mirror, and the display device to be arranged in compactness adjacent to the eyepiece optical system without increasing the optical power of an illumination optical system. As the result, the apparatus can easily be minimized in the thickness or the overall size. A hologram optical element is provided where the relationship between the wavelength range Δλ | 11-11-2010 |
20110181960 | IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE AND HEAD MOUNT DISPLAY - Provided are an image display device and HMD, which can make an observer observe an image with reduced luminance nonuniformity and reduced color nonuniformity, while making the image bright by reducing the degree of diffusion with a constitution employing a means which diffuses incident light in one direction. In the image display device, light from a light source is diffused in one direction with the diffusing means and is guided to a display element, and image light emitted from the display element is guided to an optical pupil through a lens. The image display device with the constitution satisfies the expression Hw/f≦tan 1′Kw/(f+δ), wherein Hw is the aperture width of pixels of the display element in the diffusing direction of the diffusing means, Kw is the maximum pitch of recesses and protrusions in the diffusing direction of the diffusing means, f is the focal length of the lens, and δ is the distance between the display surface of the display element and the diffusing surface of the diffusing means. | 07-28-2011 |
20110194163 | IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE AND HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY - A total reflection surface and a holographic optical element (HOE) surface are formed on the same surface (S | 08-11-2011 |
