Display apparatus and electronic apparatus
View Patent ↗A display apparatus is configured to allow a user positioned in a first direction to visually recognize a first image and to allow a user positioned in a second direction different from the first direction to visually recognize a second image. The display apparatus includes a display unit that alternately displays the first and second images; an irradiation unit that provides irradiation light; a color filter that respectively includes first and second areas for the first and second images, through which the irradiation light is transmitted; and a distribution unit that distributes the irradiation light transmitted through the first area of the color filter to the first direction and through the second area of the color filter to the second direction. The color filter includes color components of three primary colors and a white color.
1. A display apparatus allowing a user positioned in a first direction to visually recognize a first image and allowing a user positioned in a second direction different from the first direction to visually recognize a second image, comprising:
a display unit alternately displaying the first image and the second image;
an irradiation unit irradiating the display unit displaying the first image or the second image with irradiation light;
a color filter including a first area for the first image and a second area for the second image, through which the irradiation light transmitted through the display unit is transmitted; and
a distribution unit distributing the irradiation light transmitted through the display unit and the first area of the color filter to the first direction and distributing the irradiation light transmitted through the display unit and the second area of the color filter to the second direction,
wherein one of the first area and the second area of the color filter has color components of three primary colors and a white color, and
the other has color components of three primary colors.
2. The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the color filter includes the first area and the second area alternately arranged in lines.
3. The display apparatus according to claim 2 ,
wherein the color filter includes the first area and the second area alternately arranged in lines in units of sub-pixels or in units of pixels.
4. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the irradiation unit includes
a first light-emitting unit emitting irradiation light directed to the first direction, and
a second light-emitting unit emitting irradiation light directed to the second direction.
5. The display apparatus according to claim 4 ,
wherein the irradiation unit allows the first light-emitting unit to emit light in synchronization with a timing when the first image is displayed on the display unit, and allows the second light-emitting unit to emit light in synchronization with a timing when the second image is displayed on the display unit.
6. The display apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising:
an irradiation control unit individually controlling light-emitting timings and outputs of the first light-emitting unit and the second light-emitting unit of the irradiation unit.
7. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an image signal correction unit performing correction processing to at least one of an image signal corresponding to the first image and an image signal corresponding to the second image.
8. An electronic apparatus allowing a user positioned in a first direction to visually recognize a first image and allowing a user positioned in a second direction different from the first direction to visually recognize a second image, comprising:
an image signal correction unit performing correction processing to at least one of an image signal corresponding to the first image and an image signal corresponding to the second image;
a display unit alternately displaying the first image and the second image;
an irradiation unit irradiating the display unit displaying the first image or the second image with irradiation light;
a color filter including a first area for the first image and a second area for the second image, through which the irradiation light transmitted through the display unit is transmitted; and
a distribution unit distributing the irradiation light transmitted through the display unit and the first area of the color filter to the first direction and distributing the irradiation light transmitted through the display unit and the second area of the color filter to the second direction,
wherein one of the first area and the second area of the color filter has color components of three primary colors and a white color, and
the other has color components of three primary colors.
