PROJECTION TYPE TABLE DISPLAY
First Claim
1. A projection type display comprising:
- an image processing unit for processing an input image;
an illumination optical block for radiating an optical beam;
a liquid crystal panel for modulating the optical beam radiated from said illumination optical block with an output signal from said image processing unit and outputting the modulated optical beam; and
a projection lens block for projecting the modulated optical beam output from said liquid crystal panel upon a projection object,wherein said image processing unit comprises;
a first image rotation unit for rotating the input image by a first angle;
a second image rotation unit for rotating the input image by a second angle; and
a two-image synthesizing unit for synthesizing a first output image from said first image rotation unit and a second output image from said second image rotation unit into one image.

Abstract
In the usage of table projection of a projection type display, depending upon a sitting position of a participant of a conference, the participant views an image projected upon a table as an inversion image turned upside down, resulting in poor visual recognition. In order to improve visual recognition, images are rotated, synthesized and displayed in accordance with the viewing direction of each participant. More specifically, the projection type display is provided with a two-image synthesizing unit for synthesizing two images obtained by processing an input image by two image rotation units for rotating the input image by a first angle and a second angle different from the first angle, into one image on a screen. The projection type display is also provided with an image rotation unit and an image inversion unit for two-image display on a screen.
