摘要:
A scanning projector and method is provided that generates a feedback signal from at least one photodetector. In the scanning projector, a scanning mirror is configured to reflect laser light into an image region and an over scanned region. The at least one photodetector is configured to receive a portion of the reflected laser light impacting the over scanned region, and provides the feedback signal responsive to the received portion of light. This feedback signal can then be used to provide precise control of the scanning mirror.

A video projection apparatus includes: a light source; an optical deflector having a mirror for reflecting light to project a view field, an actuator for rocking the mirror with an axis of the mirror and a sensor provided in the vicinity of the actuator; and a control unit. The control unit generates a sine-wave voltage applied to the actuator and a cosine-wave voltage; calculates a first convolution between the sine-wave voltage and a sense voltage from the sensor; calculates a second convolution between the cosine-wave voltage and the sense voltage; converts an orthogonal coordinate formed by the first convolution and the second convolution into a polar coordinate formed by a radius component and an angle component; and sweeps the frequency of the first and second voltages so that the frequency is defined as a resonant frequency when the radius component is maximum.

A light flux diameter expanding element (a pupil expanding element) used in a retina scanning display device includes first to fourth diffraction gratings which are provided with grating patterns extending in a first direction, and fifth to eighth diffraction gratings which are provided with grating patterns extending in a second direction, and includes a half-wave plate between the first diffraction grating and the fifth diffraction grating. A first light flux of polarized light in which an electric field vector oscillates in the first direction enters the first diffraction grating. A second light flux of polarized light in which the electric field vector oscillates in the second direction enters the fifth diffraction grating due to the half-wave plate. Therefore, it is possible to expand a diameter of the incident first light flux in the first direction and the second direction and emit the result as the third light flux.
