Abstract: To provide a head-up display apparatus capable of displaying an easily visible image. The apparatus projects a display image displayed on the image displaying part installed in an instrument panel of a vehicle toward a windshield glass (translucent member) through an opening of the instrument panel, reflects the image on the windshield glass, and displays character information and symbol information as a virtual image, which is visible from a predetermined eye-position range. The character information is displayed in a first area where a difference in distortion (binocular parallax) of the virtual image is less than a predetermine value when the translucent member is seen from the predetermined eye-position range.

Abstract: To downsize a head-up display apparatus, a recess is provided by cutting a part of the reflection mirror having a quadrilateral shape as a basic shape. A head-up display apparatus includes, in a casing thereof, an image display and an optical path forming member. The optical path forming member includes at least a reflection mirror that reflects the image. The reflection mirror has a quadrilateral shape as a basic shape. The reflection mirror having the quadrilateral shape as the basic shape includes a recess in at least one of four corners. The reflection mirror having the quadrilateral shape as the basic shape is disposed in the casing to be inclined relative to a horizontal direction. The recess is provided in at least one of a top corner and a bottom corner which are diagonally placed in the inclined reflection mirror.
