Title:
投射型画像表示装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4497890
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The present invention discloses an image-projecting apparatus which employs an AF (auto-focusing) system suitable for use conditions of the image-projecting apparatus and is capable of securing satisfactory AF accuracy under bright conditions. The image-projecting apparatus comprises a projection optical system which projects light from an image-forming element onto a projection surface, and a detecting system which performs a detecting operation of a distance to the projection surface or a detecting operation of a focusing state of the projection optical system with respect to the projection surface. The detecting system determines a condition of the detecting operation on the basis of the light-receiving intensity level of the light-receiving element which receives reflected light from the projection surface of light projected and performs the detecting operation in accordance with the condition.
