Illumination unit and display apparatus

Abstract

An illumination unit according to the present disclosure includes a plurality of first light-emission blocks, a plurality of second light-emission blocks, and a light-emission controller. The first light-emission blocks each include a plurality of first light-emitting devices arranged in a first direction. The second light-emission blocks are partially overlapped with the respective first light-emission blocks, and each include a plurality of second light-emitting devices arranged in a second direction different from the first direction. The light-emission controller performs light-emission control of the first light-emitting devices for each of the first light-emission blocks, and performs the light-emission control of the second light-emitting devices for each of the second light-emission blocks.
