Abstract:
A DLP apparatus including an illumination system, a projection lens and a DMD is provided. The illumination system is adapted for providing an elliptic light beam, and the DMD is disposed between the illumination system and the projection lens. The DMD has a plurality of micro-mirrors, each of the micro-mirrors being adapted for swinging within an angle of for allowing the elliptic light beam moving along with an extending direction of a short axis of the elliptic light beam. When the elliptic light beam is transmitted to the projection lens, a length of a long axis of the elliptic light beam is larger than a value M and a length of the short axis of the elliptic light beam is smaller than the value M. The value M is a diameter of an aperture corresponding to f-number of the aperture being ½ sin θ.

Abstract:
A digital diagnostic system with interchangeable lenses includes a host and at least one optical lens module, wherein the host without any optical lens having curved surface includes a focus adjustment module which drives an image capture module to linearly move. Therefore, the optical system of the optical lens module can be designed independently, and no need to include focus adjustment mechanism, so that the optical design of the optical lens module can be greatly simplified, and the system allows a greater mechanism tolerance, thereby reducing manufacturing difficulty and manufacturing cost.

An image display apparatus includes a screen, a reflection mirror, an adaptive optics, and a projection unit. The reflection mirror has a reflective surface facing a light incident surface of the screen, and is separated from the light incident surface by a space. The boundary of the space is defined by the edges of the reflective surface and the light incident surface. The adaptive optics is disposed on the boundary of the space. The projection unit is disposed outside the space. The adaptive optics has a light exit side facing the reflective surface of the reflection mirror, and a light incident side facing the projection unit. A projecting light is generated from the projection unit, passes through the adaptive optics for adjusting the image size formed by the projecting light, and then is projected to the reflective surface of the reflection mirror for being reflected to the light incident surface.

Abstract:
An image projection and detection apparatus including an illumination system, a digital micro-mirror device (DMD), an optical detector, and a total internal reflection (TIR) unit is provided. The illumination system provides an illumination beam. The DMD is disposed in an optical path of the illumination beam, and includes a plurality of micro-mirror structures switched between an on-state and an off-state. When at least a part of the micro-mirror structures are in the on-state, they reflect the illumination beam into an image beam transmitted to an object side. When at least a part of micro-mirror structures are in the off-state, they reflect an object beam from the object side to the optical detector. The TIR unit includes a first TIR surface and a second TIR surface. The first TIR surface totally reflects the illumination beam to the DMD. The second TIR surface totally reflects the object beam to the optical detector.

A projection apparatus includes at least one light source, a field lens, a light valve, and a projection lens. The light source provides an illumination beam. The field lens is disposed in a transmission path of the illumination beam including an effective beam passing through the field lens and a ghost beam reflected by the field lens. The effective beam forms a light spot on the light valve capable of converting the effective beam into an image beam. The projection lens is disposed in a transmission path of the image beam and a ghost beam path of the ghost beam. A center of the light spot does not overlap a center of the light valve. An offset direction from the light valve to an optical axis of the projection lens is the same as a direction from the center of the light valve to the center of the light spot.
