20150116800IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS - The phase of laser light is modulated by a phase modulating array, and a hologram image is projected on a rotating screen. Light emission of the laser light is driven by PWM modulation so that a light emission period and a non-light emission period following the light emission period are repeated. In a case where the luminance of the hologram image is changed, the duty ratio of the light emission period is changed. In a case where the luminance is significantly reduced, the light emission intensity of the laser light is reduced without changing the duty ratio. Since the duty ratio is not reduced, a light diffusion condition on the rotating screen can be randomized even in a case where the luminance is reduced.04-30-2015
