Abstract

Disclosed is a double-projection apparatus. The double-projection apparatus includes a frame, a carrier, two eccentric axles, a mirror-twisting axle, two scanning mirrors and two piezoelectric actuators. The carrier is provided in the frame, and includes an opening defined therein. Each of the eccentric axles includes an end connected to the frame and another end connected to the carrier. The mirror-twisting axle is provided in the opening. The scanning mirrors are provided in the opening and connected to two sides of the mirror-twisting axle. The piezoelectric actuators are connected to two sides of the frame.
