  • Patent number: 10937345
    Abstract: A video display system according to an embodiment includes a display unit, a projection unit, and a display control unit. The display unit displays an image thereon. The projection unit projects a virtual image corresponding to the image onto a target space with outgoing light of the display unit. The display control unit is able to change a projection distance from a viewpoint of a user, who is viewing the virtual image, to the virtual image projected onto the target space. The display control unit changes the projection distance in a change pattern. The change pattern varies according to situation information.

  • Patent number: 10921604
    Abstract: A video display system includes a display unit, a projection unit, and a display control unit. The display unit displays an image. The projection unit projects a virtual image onto a target space with outgoing light of the display unit. The display control unit shifts a projection position of the virtual image by changing at least one of a projection distance or an angle of depression. The projection distance is a distance from a viewpoint to the virtual image. The angle of depression is an angle from which the virtual image is viewed from the user's viewpoint. The display control unit changes the projection distance of the virtual image in accordance with a distance instruction and changes at least one of the projection distance or the angle of depression such that the virtual image is projected onto a displayable region of the target space.

  • Patent number: 10795167
    Abstract: A video display system according to an embodiment includes a display unit, a projection unit, and a display control unit. The display unit displays an image thereon. The projection unit projects a virtual image, corresponding to the image, onto a target space with outgoing light of the display unit. The display control unit performs change processing of changing, in accordance with at least one of a projection distance or an angle of depression, specifics of sway correction for correcting sway of the virtual image with respect to the target space. The projection distance is a distance from a viewpoint of a user, who is viewing the virtual image projected onto the target space, to the virtual image. The angle of depression is an angle from which the virtual image is viewed from the user's viewpoint.
