CN-121995636-A - Display device
Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a display device capable of visually recognizing one of two images different from each other as a virtual image and improving visibility of the virtual image. The display device (1) is provided with a first light source device (10) which emits first emission light (SL 1) along a first direction (W1), a second light source device (20) which emits second emission light (SL 2) along a second direction (W2) which is different from the first direction (W1), and a liquid crystal panel (30) on which the first emission light (SL 1) and the second emission light (SL 2) are incident. The liquid crystal panel (30) modulates the first emission light (SL 1) and emits the first emission light (SL 3) in a first direction (W1) toward the transparent body (2) as third emission light (SL 3) corresponding to the first image (G1), and modulates the second emission light (SL 2) and displays a second image (G2) on the display surface (30 a). The first outgoing light (SL 1) has a higher brightness than the second outgoing light (SL 2).

Description
Display device Technical Field The present disclosure relates to a display device. Background As an example of a display device, patent document 1 discloses an information display device having a display capable of displaying two pieces of information on one screen. In the display device of patent document 1, one piece of information is obtained by looking directly at the display, and the other piece of information is obtained via a projection plane located above the display surface of the display. Patent document 1 Japanese patent laid-open No. 2006-259043 In the display device of patent document 1, information obtained through a projection surface is visually recognized as a virtual image. The virtual image is difficult to be visually recognized when the surroundings are bright, for example, in the daytime. Disclosure of Invention The present disclosure aims to improve visibility of a virtual image in a display device capable of visually recognizing one of two images different from each other as the virtual image. The display device includes a first light source device that emits first light in a first direction, a second light source device that emits second light in a second direction different from the first direction, and a liquid crystal panel that irradiates the liquid crystal panel with the first light and the second light, modulates the first light to emit the first light in the first direction as third light corresponding to a first image, modulates the second light to display a second image on a display surface, and modulates the first light to have a higher brightness than the second light.
