  • Patent number: 9927685
    Abstract: An illumination system including an excitation light source module configured to emit an excitation beam, a wavelength conversion device, and a light-splitting unit on a transmission path of the excitation beam and between the excitation light source module and the wavelength conversion device is provided. The light-splitting unit includes a transparent substrate and a first optical film with a hole through which the excitation beam is transmitted to the wavelength conversion device. A wavelength conversion area and a diffusion area of the wavelength conversion device cut into the transmission path by turns. The wavelength conversion area converts the excitation beam into a conversion beam transmitted to the light-splitting unit. The diffusion area reflects the excitation beam to the light-splitting unit; the first optical film reflects the excitation beam coming from the diffusion area. Wavelengths of the conversion beam and excitation beam are different. A projection apparatus is also provided.

  • Patent number: 9910346
    Abstract: An illumination system including a first laser light source, a diffusion sheet and a light integration rod is provided. The first laser light source is configured to generate a first laser beam. The diffusion sheet is located on a transmission path of the first laser beam. The light integration rod has a light entering surface and a light exiting surface. The diffusion sheet is located between the first laser light source and the light integration rod. The first laser beam from the diffusion sheet enters the light integration rod through the light entering surface and exits the light integration rod through the light exiting surface. The light integration rod is adapted to convert the first laser beam to an illumination beam. The area of the light entering surface is larger than the area of the light exiting surface. A projection apparatus is also provided.

  • Patent number: 9651854
    Abstract: A projector includes a light source module, an optical engine, a light valve and a projecting lens. The light source module includes light sources, optical fibers and a light integration rod. Each of the light sources provides an illumination sub-beam. Each of the illumination sub-beams transmits to the light integration rod through the corresponding optical fiber, and passes through the light integration rod and emits out to form a first illumination beam. The optical engine includes a phosphor wheel located at a transmission path of the first illumination beam and converting the first illumination beam into a second illumination beam. The light valve is located at a transmission path of the second illumination beam and converts the second illumination beam into an image beam. The projecting lens is located at a transmission path of the image beam and projects the image beam out of the projector.

  • Publication number: 20150136946
    Abstract: An optical touch apparatus and a touch method thereof are provided. A plurality of light sensing units are disposed between a first scanning light source and a second scanning light source, wherein the light sensing units, the first scanning light source and the second scanning light source are disposed at a same side of a touch surface. A touch position of an input tool is determined according to an intensity of a scattered light generated by an input tool and sensed by the light sensing units and generated when a first scanning beam and a second scanning beam scan the input tool.
