1. A projection type display apparatus comprising:
- at least one laser source;
an illumination optics system that irradiates a laser beam emitted by the at least one laser source;
at least one spatial light modulation element that modulates an intensity of the laser beam irradiated from the illumination optics system in accordance with input information;
a projection optics system that projects the laser beam modulated by the at least one spatial light modulation element onto a screen; and
a laser operation control unit that sets the output power of the at least one laser source so that an intensity A (mW/mm2) of the laser beam on the at least one spatial light modulation element satisfies the following relationship when a numerical aperture B of the illumination optics system is set;
A<
686×
B2.

Abstract
A projection type display apparatus is provided that is safe even when a person looks directly into a laser beam. A laser operation control unit sets the output power of at least one laser source so that intensity A (mW/mm2) of the laser beam on at least one spatial light modulation element satisfies relationship of A<686×B2 when numerical aperture B on image side of an illumination optics system is set.
