There are provided a coherent light source apparatus and a projector that achieve avoiding of an issue that uniformity in projected light is degraded by a speckle that inevitably appears upon projection of coherent light of a semiconductor laser, any other laser, etc., and each including: a coherent light source; a first optical system configured to project light derived from a first light emission region to form a second light emission region, the first light emission region being formed on basis of the coherent light source; a light deflection section configured to deflect a bundle of rays in vicinity of the second light emission region, the bundle of rays being related to formation of the second light emission region; a second optical system provided downstream of the light deflection section; and a light mixing section provided downstream of the second optical system, and configured to mix components of angles and positions of rays incident on an incident end. The second optical system is configured to form, in distance, an image conjugate to the first light emission region, and form, at the incident end, a third light emission region substantially conjugate to an exit pupil of the first optical system. The light deflection section is configured to continue to perform an operation that causes a direction in which the bundle of rays is deflected to be continuously changed.
A coherent light source apparatus comprising:
A projector provided with a coherent light source apparatus and configured to project and display an image with use of the coherent light source apparatus, the coherent light source apparatus comprising:
