Abstract: A light source device includes first and second light source units, a first polarization beam splitter, and a polarization conversion element. The first light source unit emits first linear polarization light in a first direction. The second light source unit is disposed facing the first light source unit, and emits the first linear polarization light in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The first linear polarization light emitted from the first light source unit is reflected by the first polarization beam splitter in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions. The first linear polarization light emitted from the second light source unit is reflected by the first polarization beam splitter in a fourth direction opposite to the third direction, is converted into the second linear polarization light by the polarization conversion element, and is reflected in the third direction.

Abstract: A head-up display includes an image light output device for outputting image light, a first optical element, a second optical element, and a third optical element. The first optical element is provided to be inclined with respect to the output surface of the image light output device. The first optical element reflects the image light having a first polarization direction and allowing the image light having second polarization direction to pass through. The second optical element reflects the image light from the first optical element to the first optical element. The third optical element is disposed between the first and the second optical element, and converts the image light having the first polarization direction to the image light having the second polarization direction by allowing the image light to pass through back and forth. The image light passing through the first optical element is projected on a combiner.

Abstract: This projection display device includes: a light source unit emitting a white light along a first optical axis; a lighting unit provided on a second optical axis, the lighting unit splitting the white light into predetermined color lights and uniformizing an illuminance distribution of the predetermined color lights; an image generator including a display element modulating the predetermined color lights, and a projection lens projecting an image light including the predetermined color lights modulated along a third optical axis; at least one optical path switching unit selectively switching between reflection and transmission of the white light; a light diffuser including a diffusion optical system spreading the white light to a desired illumination area and projecting the spread white light as an illumination light; and a controller causing the at least one optical path switching unit to switch between emission of the image light and emission of the illumination light.

Abstract: A head-up display causes light modulated by an optical modulation element to form, via a projection lens, an intermediate image on a screen, and then causes the intermediate image to reflect, via a mirror, on a windshield to allow a user to view a virtual image. A normal line of the screen is inclined with respect to an optical axis of the projection lens. An emission surface of the optical modulation element is inclined with respect to the screen and a principal plane of the projection lens so as to satisfy a Scheimpflug condition.
