Abstract
A multi-display apparatus comprises a screen, and a plurality of projectors arranged in at least two columns horizontally and at least two rows vertically. Optical axes of the plurality of projectors corresponding to each column are placed on the same plane and longitudinal angles θ1 and θ2 of the optical paths are made difference as least between two rows. Employing this arrangement enables the plurality of projectors corresponding to respective rows and columns to be positioned as if they form a single light source, prevents the problem of mutual interference between the projection optical paths caused when a given projector enters the projection optical paths of the projectors of each row or column when reflecting mirrors are used, and enables a compact multi-display apparatus to be made.

12. A multi-display apparatus comprising,
a screen; -
a plurality of projectors to project images on the screen, the projectors being arranged in at least three columns horizontally and at least two rows vertically; and
a plurality of mirrors positioned in a plurality of optical paths via which the plurality of projectors produce projections, wherein the number of the mirrors positioned in the paths for the projectors disposed on opposing sides is larger than the number of the mirrors positioned in the paths for the projectors disposed centrally.

13. A multi-display apparatus comprising,
a screen; -
a plurality of projectors to project images on the screen; and
a plurality of mirrors positioned between the screen and the plurality of projectors for reflecting a projection image, wherein imaginary projector positions, before the mirrors deflect the optical paths, for at least two adjacent projectors are arranged so as to be partially overlapped with each other.
