Abstract

L'objectif de la présente invention est de réduire la distorsion d'une image virtuelle tout en obtenant une réduction de taille et d'assurer de manière adéquate une région visible qui est visuellement reconnaissable par un observateur. L'invention concerne également un dispositif optique (2) pour l'affichage d'image virtuelle pourvu d'un élément projeté (20) sur lequel une image d'affichage, qui a été affichée par un dispositif d'affichage d'image (3) et a été réfléchie par une surface réfléchissante (210) d'un élément réfléchissant (21), est projetée, et amène une image virtuelle (5) de l'image d'affichage à être affichée dans une position séparée de l'élément projeté (20). L'élément projeté (20) a une surface de face (200) qui fait face à la surface réfléchissante (210). Une zone alentour du centre de la surface de face (200) est formée sous la forme d'une surface incurvée qui fait saillie dans une direction s'éloignant de la surface réfléchissante (210). Une zone alentour du centre de la surface réfléchissante (210) est formée sous la forme d'une surface incurvée qui fait saillie vers le dispositif d'affichage d'image (3). Soit R1 la valeur minimale d'un premier rayon de courbure (Rmx) de la surface réfléchissante (210). Soit R2 la valeur minimale d'un second rayon de courbure (Rcx) de la surface de face (200) de l'élément projeté (20). Dès lors, la condition 1,63<R2/R1≤ 4,50 est satisfaite.
