Description

BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The present invention relates to an electronic apparatus which may display a three-dimensional (3D) image.

2. Related Art

In recent years, a technology for head mounted display (hereinafter, referred to as “HMD”) using a hologram optical element has been known. In JP-A-2010-33026 (see, FIG. 4), a technique for guiding an image displayed in a single display device to the left and right eyes is disclosed. In this technique, the same image is viewed by the left and right eyes.

In addition, in JP-A-2008-527440 (see, FIG. 1), a technique for guiding an image for a left eye to the left eye and guiding an image for a right eye to the right eye is disclosed. In this technique, different images are viewed by the left and right eyes.

However, in the technique disclosed in JPA-2010-33026, the same image is viewed by the left and right eyes, and therefore a 3D image cannot be displayed.

Meanwhile, in the technique disclosed in JP-A-2008-527440, different images are viewed by the left and right eyes, and therefore the 3D image can be displayed. However, two display devices are required, so that their configurations are complex, and the overall size of the HMD is increased.

SUMMARY

According to an aspect of the invention, there is provided an electronic apparatus, including; a display device that, when using one light of light with a short wavelength and light with a long wavelength light centering around a first wavelength corresponding to red as first red light and the other light as second red light, using one light of light with a short wavelength and light with a long wavelength centering around a second wavelength corresponding to green as first green light and the other light as second green light, and using one light of light with a short wavelength and light with a long wavelength centering around a third wavelength corresponding to blue as first blue light and the other light as second blue light, displays an image for a left eye by the first red light, the first green light, and the first blue light, and an image for a right eye by the second red light, the second green light, and the second blue light; a first optical system that separates the first red light, the first green light, and the first blue light based on a difference between wavelengths of the first and second light of each color from light emitted from the display device, and outputs the separated light to be made incident on a left eye; and a second optical system that separates the second red light, the second green light, and the second blue light based on the difference between wavelengths of the first and second light of each color from the light emitted from the display device, and outputs the separated light to be made incident on a right eye.

According to an aspect of the invention, by outputting first and second light with mutually different wavelengths with respect to each of red, green, and blue, the image for the left eye may be formed by the first light and the image for the right eye may be formed by the second light, and therefore it is possible to separate the image for the left eye and the image for the right eye based on a difference in wavelengths of each color. For this reason, it is possible to display a 3D image using a single display device. As a result, it is possible to provide the electronic apparatus capable of being miniaturized and lightened while simplifying a configuration of the electronic apparatus.

In the present embodiment, the light emitting device 20 displays the image for the left eye and the image for the right eye by red, green, and blue light which are wavelength-shifted in a degree in which people feel no sense of incongruity, and each light is guided to the left and right eyes using wavelength selectivity of the diffractive optical elements. Due to this, a 3D image may be displayed using a single light emitting device 20.

In the above-described embodiment, the first to fourth diffractive optical elements H1 to H4 which reflect the first and second green light G1 and G2 are disposed as closer to the human eyes compared to the fifth to twelfth diffractive optical elements H5 to H12 which reflects red and blue light. The diffractive optical element has excellent transmission characteristics of the wavelength, but a slight loss may arise from the transmission characteristics. Sensitivity of human eyes is higher in green compared to red and blue. By the above-described disposition, it is possible to reduce a loss of the green light, thereby displaying a high-quality image.

Second Embodiment

In the first embodiment, the first to twelfth diffractive optical elements H1 to H12 selectively reflect light with one wavelength, and transmit light with other wavelengths. In contrast, the HMD 100 according to the second embodiment has a difference in that a single diffractive optical element selectively reflects three wavelengths. In addition, the HMD 100 according to the second embodiment has the same configuration as that of the HMD 100 according to the first embodiment except that an optical system 40B is used instead of the optical system 40A.

FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a structure of an optical system 40B according to a second embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 9, the optical system 40B includes a first light guide unit 41, a first diffractive optical element H1a formed on a second surface 412 of the first light guide unit 41, a second diffractive optical element H2a formed so as to be in contact with the first diffractive optical element H1a, a third diffractive optical element H3a formed on the second surface 412 while being separated from the first diffractive optical element H1a by a predetermined distance in a left direction, and a fourth diffractive optical element H1a formed on the second surface 412 while being separated from the second diffractive optical element H2a by a predetermined distance in a right direction.

Here, as shown in FIG. 10, the first and third diffractive optical elements H1a and H3a have reflection characteristics RH, GH, and BH, reflect first red light R1, first green light G1, and first blue light B1, and transmit second red light R2, second green light G2, and second blue light B2. In addition, a reflection angle of the first diffractive optical element H1a is +θ1, whereas a reflection angle of the third diffractive optical element H3a is −θ1. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 11, the first red light R1, the first green light G1, and the first blue line B1 are reflected by the first diffractive optical element H1a, propagate in a left direction while being totally reflected within the first light guide unit 41, are reflected by the third diffractive optical element H3a, and are guided to a left eye.

In addition, a reflection angle of the second diffractive optical element H2a is −θ1, whereas a reflection angle of the fourth diffractive optical element H4a is +θ1. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 11, the second red light R2, the second green light G2, and the second blue line B2 are reflected by the second diffractive optical element H2a, propagate in a right direction while being totally reflected within the first light guide unit 41, are reflected by the fourth diffractive optical element H4a, and are guided to a right eye.

The HMD 100 according to the second embodiment is configured such that three wavelengths are selectively reflected by a single diffractive optical element, thereby simplifying a configuration of the optical system 40B. In particular, a thickness of the HMD 100 may be reduced, thereby significantly improving usability.

In addition, according to the present embodiment, the lens 30, the first light guide unit 41, the first diffractive optical element H1a, and the third diffractive optical element H3a may act as the first optical system that separates the first red light R1, the first green light G1, and the first blue light B1 from the light emitted from the light emitting device 20 based on a difference in wavelengths of the first and second light of each color, and outputs the separated light to be made incident on the left eye. In addition, the lens 30, the first guide unit 41, the second diffractive optical element H2a, and the fourth diffractive optical element H4a may act as the second optical system that separates the second red light R2, the second green light G2, and the second blue light B2 from the light emitted from the light emitting device 20 based on a difference in wavelengths of the first and second light of each color, and outputs the separated light to be made incident on the right eye.

Third Embodiment

The HMD 100 according to a third embodiment has the same configuration as that of the HMD 100 according to the second embodiment except that the first diffractive optical element H1b is used instead of the first and second diffractive optical elements H1a and H2a.

In FIG. 13, an optical system 40C using the HMD 100 according to the third embodiment is illustrated. The first diffractive optical element H1b has both a positive reflection angle of +θ1 and a negative reflection angle of −θ1. The reflection characteristics RH, GH, and BH shown in FIG. 10 are exhibited in the refection angle of +θ1, and the reflection characteristics RL, GL, and BL shown in FIG. 12 are exhibited in the reflection angle of −θ1.

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 13, the first red light R1, the first green light G1, and the first blue light B1 are reflected by the first diffractive optical element H1b, propagate in a left direction while being totally reflected within the first light guide unit 41, are reflected by the third diffractive optical element H3a, and are guided to a left eye. Meanwhile, the second red light R2, the second green light G2, and the second blue light B2 are reflected by the first diffractive optical element H1b, propagate in a right direction while being totally reflected within the first light guide unit 41, are reflected by the fourth diffractive optical element H4a, and are guided to a right eye.

As described above, the HMD 100 according to the third embodiment is configured such that six wavelengths are selectively reflected by a single diffractive optical element, thereby simplifying a configuration of the optical system 40C.

In addition, in the present embodiment, the lens 30, the first light guide unit 41, the first diffractive optical element H1b, and the third diffractive optical element H3a may act as the first optical system that separates the first red light R1, the first green light G1, and the first blue light B1 from the light emitted from the light emitting device 20 based on a difference in wavelengths of the first and second light of each color, and outputs the separated light to be made incident on the left eye. In addition, the lens 30, the first guide unit 41, the first diffractive optical element H1b, and the fourth diffractive optical element 84a may act as the second optical system that separates the second red light R2, the second green light G2, and the second blue light B2 from the light emitted from the light emitting device 20 based on a difference in wavelengths of the first and second light of each color, and outputs the separated light to be made incident on the right eye.
