VEHICULAR DISPLAY APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A vehicular display apparatus that is installed in a vehicle and provides a display image, comprising:
- a light source unit that emits laser light;
a first optical system that projects a display image from the light source unit onto a first projection surface, and displays a virtual image of the display image so that the virtual image is discerned inside the vehicle;
a second optical system that projects the display image from the light source unit onto a second projection surface and displays a real image of the display image so that the real image is discerned inside the vehicle; and
a switching section that switches display by the first optical system and display by the second optical system,whereina distance between the light source unit and the first projection surface is smaller than a distance between the light source unit and the second projection surface.

Abstract
A vehicular display apparatus includes a light source unit that emits laser light; a first optical system that uses a first projection surface, onto which a display image is projected, to make a virtual image discernible; a second optical system that uses a second projection surface, onto which the display image is projected, to make a real image discernible; a controller; and a switching mechanism that switch the two optical systems. The distance between the light source unit and first projection surface is smaller than the distance between the light source unit and second projection surface.
