Display device, method for controlling display device, program, recording medium, and moving body equipped with display device
A display device has a movable screen that is movable in a movement direction, a drive controller, a projector, and a position detector. The drive controller moves the movable screen relative to a reference position set at a prescribed position in a movement range of the movable screen. The projector performs drawing on the movable screen by irradiating the movable screen with light used for scanning the movable screen and projects a virtual image onto a target space based on light that passes through the movable screen. The position detector executes position detection processing for detecting that the movable screen is located at a detection position set in relation to the prescribed position. The position detector moves the movable screen and executes the position detection processing in a non-display period in which the movable screen is not irradiated with light from the projector.
1. A display device comprising:
a movable screen that is movable in a movement direction;

a projector that performs drawing on the movable screen by irradiating the movable screen with light used for scanning the movable screen and projects a virtual image onto a target space based on light that passes through the movable screen;
a position detector that executes position detection processing for detecting that the movable screen is located at a detection position set in relation to the prescribed position; and
a corrector that moves the movable screen to the prescribed position based on at least a detection result of the position detector,
wherein the position detector is configured to move the movable screen and execute the position detection processing in a non-display period in which the movable screen is not irradiated with light from the projector.
2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the position detector is configured to move the movable screen in a control pattern different from the drive controller in the non-display period.
3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the position detector executes the position detection processing by moving the movable screen so as to pass the detection position in the non-display period, and
the corrector is configured to move the movable screen to the prescribed position based on the detection result of the position detector and an amount of movement of the movable screen after passage through the detection position.
4. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the position detector is configured to detect passage of the movable screen through the detection position.
5. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
a movable display period in which the drive controller moves the movable screen and the movable screen that is moving is irradiated with light from the projector is intermittently set, and
the position detector is configured to execute the position detection processing while using, as a trigger, movement of the movable screen by the drive controller in the movable display period.
6. The display device according to claim 5 , wherein the position detector is configured to execute the position detection processing before the movable display period.
7. The display device according to claim 5 , wherein the position detector is configured to execute the position detection processing after the movable display period.
8. The display device according to claim 5 , wherein
the drive controller is configured to execute return processing for returning the movable screen to the reference position in the non-display period every time the movable screen is moved, and
the position detector is configured to execute the position detection processing in the non-display period in which the drive controller executes the return processing.
9. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the position detector is configured to execute the position detection processing in the non-display period by moving the movable screen within a search range and, in a case where the position detector does not detect that the movable screen is located at the detection position, moving the movable screen again after changing the search range.
10. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the movable screen has a front surface inclined with respect to the movement direction, and
the projector is configured to irradiate the movable screen with light used for scanning the front surface of the movable screen.
11. The display device according to claim 10 , wherein
the drive controller is configured to
fix the movable screen in the movement direction in a case where a first virtual image serving as the virtual image is formed on a first virtual plane whose inclination angle with respect to an optical axis of the projector is smaller than a predetermined value, and
move the movable screen in the movement direction in a case where a second virtual image serving as the virtual image is formed on a second virtual plane whose inclination angle with respect to the optical axis of the projector is larger than the predetermined value.
12. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the movable screen is one of a plurality of screens including a fixed screen, and the display device includes the plurality of screens,
the projector selects one of the plurality of screens as a target screen, and performs drawing on the target screen by irradiating the target screen with light used for scanning the target screen to project the virtual image onto the target space based on light that passes through the target screen, and
the non-display period is a fixed display period in which the fixed screen is being selected as the target screen.
13. A method for controlling a display device including
a movable screen that is movable in a movement direction,
a drive controller that moves the movable screen relative to a reference position set at a prescribed position in a movement range of the movable screen,
a projector that performs drawing on the movable screen by irradiating the movable screen with light used for scanning the movable screen and projects a virtual image onto a target space based on light that passes through the movable screen,
a position detector that executes position detection processing for detecting that the movable screen is located at a detection position set in relation to the prescribed position, and
a corrector that moves the movable screen to the prescribed position based on at least a detection result of the position detector,
the method comprising:
moving the movable screen in a non-display period in which the movable screen is not irradiated with light from the projector; and
causing the position detector to execute the position detection processing in the non-display period.
14. A program for causing a computer to execute the method for controlling the display device according to claim 13 .
15. A non-transitory recording medium recording a program for causing a computer to execute the method for controlling the display device according to claim 13 .
16. A moving body comprising:
the display device according to claim 1 ;
a reflective member that reflects light from the projector;
a main body that houses the display device and the reflective member; and
a moving body driving unit that moves the main body.
