  • Patent number: 11947316
    Abstract: Provided is a multi-image display apparatus including a light source configured to emit light, a spatial light modulator configured to provide a first image by modulating the light emitted from the light source, and an optical system configured to transmit the first image provided by the spatial light modulator to a viewer, wherein the optical system is configured such that a travelling path of the first image provided by the spatial light modulator includes a first optical path in a first direction, a second optical path in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and a third optical path in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction, respectively, and wherein the optical system is configured such that the first image and a second image provided from an optical path different from the travelling path of the first image are provided to the viewer.

  • Publication number: 20130188156
    Abstract: This invention concerns an optical system for a projection display device that includes: a first lens which may emit light entering from a light source with a same angle to a single point; a second lens which is positioned in a way that the light collected from the first lens may be transmitted to a digital micromirror device (DMD) with a predetermined angle; a DMD which may reflect the light entering from the second lens; a prism positioned between the second lens and the DMD that transmits and transfers the light emitted from the second lens to the DMD, and transfers the light reflected from the DMD to a projection lens by totally reflecting the light; and a projection lens that is positioned in the optical path of the light totally reflected from the prism, to project the light onto a screen.
