  • Publication number: 20240069425
    Abstract: An illumination system including two light source modules, two light guiding modules, a first reflector, and a light homogenization element is provided. The two light guiding modules are respectively disposed on transmission paths of light beams generated by the two light source modules to generate two guiding light beams. One of the guiding light beams is reflected to the light homogenization element by the first reflector. The other of the guiding light beams is directly transmitted to the light homogenization element. The guiding light beams are emitted from the light homogenization element and form an illumination light beam. A projection apparatus is also provided.
