A display device includes an image forming unit to form an image and project the image on a transmissive reflector to display a virtual image, an optical element to direct light of the image to the transmissive reflector, a wavelength selective mirror disposed between the image forming unit and the optical element and to separate infrared light from a light beam, and a shielding part to shield or attenuate infrared light. The optical element condenses external light travelling along an optical path opposite to an optical path of the light diffused. The wavelength selective mirror separates infrared light included in the external light condensed by the optical element, and the shielding part is disposed between the wavelength selective mirror and a focal point of the infrared light separated by the wavelength selective mirror. An apparatus includes the display device and the transmissive reflector.
