Abstract
[Object] To easily display an image with reduced distortion on a screen having a curved surface. [Solving Means] A display apparatus includes a plurality of display elements that emits image light to a screen having a curved surface, the plurality of display elements being arranged at non-uniform intervals therebetween such that the image light emitted from the plurality of display elements is reflected on the curved surface to display a target image.
Claims19
A display apparatus for a vehicle having a screen having a curved surface, comprising:
- a plurality of display elements that emits image light to the screen in the case that the display apparatus is installed into the vehicle, the plurality of display elements being arranged at non-uniform intervals therebetween in a first direction and a second direction such that the image light emitted from the plurality of display elements is reflected on the curved surface to display a target image, wherein
- each of a plurality of blocks includes a divided substrate and a subset of the plurality of display elements;
- and
- the plurality of blocks divided in the first direction and the second direction are combined to constitute the display apparatus.
A display system for a vehicle having a screen having a curved surface, comprising:
- a display apparatus including a plurality of display elements that emits image light to the screen in the case that the display apparatus is installed into the vehicle, the plurality of display elements being arranged at non-uniform intervals therebetween in a first direction and a second direction such that the image light emitted from the plurality of display elements is reflected on the curved surface to display a target image, wherein
- each of a plurality of blocks includes a divided substrate and a subset of the plurality of display elements, and
- the plurality of blocks divided in the first direction and the second direction are combined to constitute the display apparatus;
- and
- a display control apparatus that generates image rendering data and outputs the image rendering data to the display apparatus.
A method of manufacturing a display apparatus, comprising:
- providing a plurality of blocks, each of the plurality of blocks including a divided substrate and a subset of a plurality of display elements;
- and
- combining the plurality of blocks in a first direction and a second direction to constitute the display apparatus,
- wherein the plurality of display elements are arranged at non-uniform intervals therebetween in the first direction and the second direction such that image light emitted from the plurality of display elements is reflected on a curved surface of a screen to display a target image.
