摘要:
A detection surface of an optical detector is divided into regions C, E, F, G, and H. The optical detector outputs detection signals corresponding to the amounts of light incident on the respective regions. A position detection controller calculates an image projection position based on timing at which a laser beam is incident on region C. A laser control circuit adjusts the intensity of the laser beam emitted by a laser based on laser beam intensities detected in regions E to H arranged around region C.

An image display apparatus wherein reduction in contrast or resolution is prevented is provided. A laser projector as an embodiment of the image display apparatus includes a memory storing a threshold value predetermined for changing a driving mode of a laser light source, a calculator for calculating an optical power level for projecting an image, a driving-mode selector selecting a mode for driving the laser light source, a driving controller for sending a signal to the laser light source in accordance with a selected driving mode, and a laser emitter. The laser projector operates at least at a bias current value Ib or more. In this case, when the optical power level is lower than or equal to a predetermined threshold value TH, the laser projector emits pulsed light. When the optical power level based on a video signal exceeds threshold value TH, the laser projector changes the driving mode of laser light emission from pulsed light emission to DC light emission, to supply a current higher than or equal to bias current value Ib to each laser light source.

A laser driver circuit comprising a current supply circuit for supplying a laser diode with a current is provided. The current supply circuit comprises a voltage-to-current converter circuit, a current output line for outputting the current generated by the voltage-to-current converter circuit, a current supply line connected to the laser diode, a ground line connected to the ground, and a current path switch for selectively connecting either the current supply line or the ground line to the current output line. The laser driver circuit further comprises a current output prevention circuit for preventing the voltage-to-current converter circuit from generating the current by disconnecting the voltage input line using a voltage input switch so that the voltage is not input to the voltage-to-current converter circuit, when the current output line and the ground line are connected by the current path switch.

To prevent effectively the flickering of an image due to the switching of a polarization direction while reducing speckle noise. A polarization switching unit is provided in an optical path of laser light to a projection surface A and periodically switches a polarization direction of the laser light emitted therefrom between p and S polarization. A laser control unit controls laser light sources in synchronization with the switching by the polarization switching unit and determines a driving current corresponding to a grayscale to be displayed on the basis of driving current characteristics for P polarization when the polarization direction of the laser light is the P polarization. In addition, the laser control unit determines the driving current corresponding to the grayscale to be displayed on the basis of the driving current characteristics for P polarization when the polarization direction of the laser light is the S polarization.
