PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a stereoscopic image display apparatus capable of forming stereoscopic images of high image quality by properly arranging a plurality of projecting elements and optical paths projected from them. SOLUTION: In the stereoscopic image display apparatus 20, mirrors M3 and M4 are disposed so that the optical path of projection light 12a from each of the projecting elements 3a of a first projecting element group 3 overlap the optical path of projection light 15 from each of the projecting elements 5 of second projecting element group 5. This arrangement makes it possible to minimize a pitch between the optical axes or the image pitch of each of the projecting element groups 3, 5, and 7, which is displayed on a screen 1 or the eyes of an observer 101.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image projecting device capable of generating an image of high picture quality by arranging a plurality image projecting elements such as a projector to high density. SOLUTION: Projection ends of images as end parts of respective cylinder parts 3c of projectors 5 constitute a projection surface and those cylinder parts 3c are constituted to have a 1st length and a 2nd length different therefrom. In addition, the respective projectors 5 are so arranged that storage parts 3b storing liquid crystal devices overlap each other when viewed from the projection surface. Consequently, the projectors 5 can be arranged to high density and stereoscopic images such as still pictures and moving pictures of high picture quality and high fineness can be generated.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal display device having a wide color reproduction range. SOLUTION: A light selective transmission filter 32 is provided between a cold-cathode fluorescent lamp 43 as a light source and a liquid crystal panel 2. This light selective transmission filter 32 has wavelength selective transmission characteristics of selectively transmitting light in a prescribed wavelength range in projection light from the cold-cathode fluorescent lamp 43 and guiding it to the liquid crystal panel 2. Consequently, an NTSC ratio is improved by increasing the color purity of illumination light of the liquid crystal panel 2 to expand the color reproduction range. Even when a light selective reflection filter having wavelength selective reflection characteristics of selectively reflecting light in a prescribed wavelength range in the projection light from the cold-cathode fluorescent lamp 43 and guiding it to the liquid crystal panel 2 is provided on a tilt surface of a light guide plate 45, the color reproduction range can be expanded as well.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a downsized stereoscopic image display apparatus, and also to provide an optical reflector used therefor and a stereoscopic image display method. SOLUTION: The stereoscopic image display apparatus 1 is equipped with: a means for obtaining data of an image frame picked up with a plurality of view points (cameras) and, on the basis of the acquired data, forming a prescribed image signal for each view point with the purpose of displaying a stereoscopic image; a liquid crystal device 3 that has a light source 2 and a plurality of pixels and that, on the basis of the image signal for each view point formed, modulates for each pixel the light emitted from the light source 2; and a stereoscopic image forming device 4 which has a plurality of mirrors 7 arranged to deal with each pixel to reflect the modulated light and which, by switching the angle of each mirror 7 in accordance with the image signal for each view point, forms a stereoscopic image by reflecting the light on each mirror 7. Thus, it is unnecessary to provide a plurality of liquid crystal devices 3, thereby downsizing the stereoscopic image display apparatus 1. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize more uniform, high-contrast display with cholesteric liquid crystal. SOLUTION: In a step S21, bipolar pulses of a voltage V1 are applied to column electrodes Y1 to Y3 T times (a plurality of times) in a specified period and bipolar pulses of a voltage -V2 are applied to row electrodes X1 to X3 T times in the specified time. Consequently, all-planar resetting is carried out. In a step S22, a cholesteric liquid crystal panel is driven by the row electrodes with a selected voltage V3 T times in the specified period by scanning and also selectively applying the column electrodes with bipolar pulses -4V having the opposite characteristics T times in the specified period in timing to the scanning application to the row electrodes, and only liquid crystal at desired pixel positions is changed into a focal conic state to display desired information. This invention is applicable to a liquid crystal display device or liquid crystal driving circuit. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

SOLUTION: The display board of a prompter is configured so that an up-conversion thin film 2 for emitting the light in a wavelength shorter than prescribed when the light in the prescribed wavelength is made incident onto the thin film 2 is formed on a principal face 1A of a light transparent base member 1, and a wavelength selection reflecting film 3 for selectively reflecting the light in the wavelength emitted from the up-conversion thin film 2 is formed on a rear face 1B opposite to the principal face 1A of the base member 1.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a screen for projection capable of improving all of the contrast, lightness, and field angle of a picture. SOLUTION: Projection light L1 after being reflected by a reflection accelerating layer 2B toward a convergence position P is scattered by a scattering layer 4 arranged selectively at the convergence position P. While the projection light L1 reflected by the reflection accelerating layer 2B is scattered by the scattering layer 4, excessive light such as external light reflected by the reflection accelerating layer 2B is hardly scattered by the scattering layer 4. Using differences between reflecting mechanisms of the projection light L1 and external light makes the reflection range of the projection light L1 much larger than the reflection range of the external light, so the reflecting mechanism and scattering mechanism of the projection light L are both properly controlled. The contrast, lightness, and visual field of a picture are all improved, so a distinctive picture can be appreciated without making the room inner side dark each time a projector system is used.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To present a distinct image without being affected by the brightness of a projection environment. SOLUTION: A screen for projection on which light from a light source 11 is projected to display an image is provided with an optical thin film 3 made of a dielectric multi-layered film which has a high reflection characteristic to light in a specific wavelength band and has a high transmission characteristic to at least light in a visible wavelength area other than the specific wavelength band, and the film thickness of each layer of the dielectric multi-layered film in the optical thin film 3 is designed by simulation based on a matrix method. In the screen for projection constituted in this manner, the optical thin film 3 functions as what is called a band filter. The optical thin film 3 reflects only light in the specific wavelength band and transmits light having the other wavelengths to function as a wavelength band filter which has a function to separate these light.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a flexible display in which a voice can be reproduced without sacrifice of flexibility and the weight and thickness can be reduced. SOLUTION: The image display incorporates a flexible thin film speaker. The thin film speaker is produced by pasting electrode sheets to the opposite sides of a diaphragm made of a piezoelectric film. The thin film speaker may have an air gap between the substrate and the thin film speaker. It is applicable to various flat panel displays including a plasma display (PDP), an organic electroluminescence display (organic EL), a field emission display (FED), and the like.
