(action of image projection device)
Below, the action of image projection device 1 is described.If video camera 3 reference object things 100 send to not shown control module with this photographic images, then control module shows photographic images on display part.Control module overlaps the annotating images of input on the photographic images on the display part, carries out the image projection control of this annotating images simultaneously.Projector 6 utilizes the image projection control of control module, and the image light 6a as the s polarized light projects on the object 100 with annotating images.As this device, can reference example such as U.S. Patent Publication 2004/0070674 (take the object that is present in the actual object side with video camera, and send this photographic images to terminal, according to photographic images, the annotating images of indicating is utilized the technology of projector to the object projection in the actual object side in terminal).
Fig. 7 is the figure of the overall optical system of presentation video projection arrangement 1.If the image light 6a from the s polarized light of projector 6 outgoing is incident to polarised light splitter 4, then nearly all image light 6a is polarized 4 reflections of light optical splitter, via light transmission dust proof member 7 to object 100 projections.
Accept image light 6a and,, be incident to the entrance pupil 3a of video camera 3, video camera 3 reference object things 100 so its part sees through polarised light splitter 4 because direction of polarized light is mixed and disorderly from the light that object 100 sends.
Be incident among the image light 6a of polarised light splitter 4, a part of light transmission polarised light splitter 4, but this transmitted light 6b can arrive optical attenuation optical filtering 8 and decay, the difficult reflected light 6c that produces.Because optical attenuation optical filtering 8 is with respect to secondary optical axis 120 tilted configuration, even, also can avoid it to arrive polarised light splitter 4 and be incident among the entrance pupil 3a of video camera 3 by the light 6c ' of polarised light splitter 4 reflections once more so on optical attenuation optical filtering 8, produce reflected light 6c.
In addition, when the image light 6a by polarised light splitter 4 reflections sees through light transmission dust proof member 7, a part of light reflection.Because this reflected light 6d is not a s polarized light completely, so a part can see through polarised light splitter 4.In the present embodiment, not that light transmission dust proof member 7 vertically is provided with respect to primary optical axis 110, but so that reflected light 6d avoids entrance pupil 3a, dispose to the mode of optical attenuation optical filtering 8 lateral reflections.Therefore, the light that sees through polarised light splitter 4 can be avoided video camera 3, and major part all arrives optical attenuation optical filtering 8 and decays, and can produce reflected light hardly.

(action of image projection device)
Below, the action of image projection device 1 is described with reference to above-mentioned Fig. 8.If video camera 3 reference object things 100 send to not shown control module with its photographic images, then control module shows photographic images on display part.Control module overlaps on the photographic images on the display part annotating images of input, and carries out the image projection control of this annotating images.Projector 16 projects to annotating images on the object 100 as image light 6a by the image projection control of control module.
If the image light 6a of the p polarized light that penetrates from projector 16 is incident to polarised light splitter 4, then image light 6a nearly all sees through polarised light splitter 4, projects on the object 100 via light transmission dust proof member 7.
The light of accepting image light 6a and sending from object 100 is because direction of polarized light is mixed and disorderly, so by polarised light splitter 4 reflections and be incident among the entrance pupil 3a of video camera 3 video camera 3 reference object things 100.
Be incident to a part of light among the image light 6a of polarised light splitter 4 by polarised light splitter 4 reflections, but its reflected light 6e arrives optical attenuation optical filtering 8 and decays, reflection hardly.
In addition, when the image light 6a that sees through polarised light splitter 4 sees through light transmission dust proof member 7,, can arrive optical attenuation optical filtering 8 and decay, be difficult for producing reflected light 6e ' though the reflection of a part of light sees through the light of polarised light splitter 4 among this reflected light 6d.Because optical attenuation optical filtering 8 is with respect to secondary optical axis 120 tilted configuration, even so, also can avoid arriving polarised light splitter 4 and the light 6e ' that sees through polarised light splitter 4 once more is incident to the entrance pupil 3a of video camera 3 because of optical attenuation optical filtering 8 produces reflected light 6e '.
In addition, the invention is not restricted to the respective embodiments described above, in the scope that does not break away from purport of the present invention, can carry out various deformation and implement.For example, in the respective embodiments described above, the optical attenuation optical filtering is arranged in the dust cover away from dust cover, but also can be arranged on the inwall of dust cover.In addition, the 1st optical attenuation optical filtering is arranged in the dust cover away from dust cover, the inwall at dust cover is provided with the 2nd optical attenuation optical filtering simultaneously.
In addition, in the respective embodiments described above, use the polarised light splitter 4 that reflects the s polarized light and the p polarized light is seen through, but also can use the s polarized light to see through and the polarization separating element of reflection p polarized light.
In addition, in the scope that does not break away from purport of the present invention, textural element that can each embodiment of combination in any.For example, also can be with the use of the 1st embodiment the projector of transmissive liquid crystal panel, be replaced into the 2nd embodiment use the projector of reflective liquid crystal plate.Under this situation, for example, need add the polarization that the p polarized light is transformed to the s polarized light in the exiting side of dichroic prism 167.In addition, also be not limited to the content of the present invention's record, can suitably design, so that its final direction of polarized light uniform images light that penetrates about the configuration of liquid crystal board.
