Abstract
In an optical system of a display device, an image light projecting device emits image light toward a first side in a first direction. A reflective element of a first light-guiding system emits the image light emitted from the image light projecting device toward a second side in the first direction. A first diffraction element having a reflectivity emits the image light emitted from the reflective element toward the first side in the first direction. A second diffraction element having a reflectivity emits the image light emitted from the first diffraction element toward the second side in the first direction and causes the image light to be incident on an eye of an observer. An optical path from the first diffraction element to the second diffraction element is provided in a second light-guiding system.
Claims15
A display device, comprising:
- an image light projecting device configured to project image light;
- a first light-guiding system including a first reflective element disposed on a first side in a first direction with respect to the image light projecting device, the first light-guiding system being configured to emit the image light projected from the image light projecting device toward a second side in the first direction by the first reflective element;
- a first diffraction element having a reflectivity, and configured to emit the image light emitted from the first reflective element toward the first side in the first direction;
- and
- a second diffraction element having a reflectivity, and configured to emit the image light emitted from the first diffraction element toward the second side in the first direction.
