Projector

A projector comprising:

• a light source including
• a first light-emitting region including a plurality of first light-emitting elements and configured to emit a first light beam, and
• a second light-emitting region including a plurality of second light-emitting elements and configured to emit a second light beam having a wavelength different from a wavelength of the first light beam;
• an optical modulation device configured to modulate the first light beam and the second light beam incident from the light source in accordance with image information;
• a projection optical device configured to project an image formed by the optical modulation device;
• and
• a control unit configured to control a light emission intensity of each of the plurality of first light-emitting elements and a light emission intensity of each of the plurality of second light-emitting elements, wherein
• the control unit changes a light-emitting position of the first light beam in the first light-emitting region to move a first illumination region of the first light beam on an image forming region of the optical modulation device,
• changes a light-emitting position of the second light beam in the second light-emitting region to move a second illumination region of the second light beam, in the same direction as the first illumination region, on the image forming region of the optical modulation device, and
• the first illumination region and the second illumination region do not overlap with each other on the image forming region.
