TIR prism system for DMD and projector adopting the same

摘要

A TIR prism system for DMD and a projector adopting the same make a loss of incidence light be reduced, and having a small size and light weight. In a TIR prism system having the DMD and for total reflecting the incidence light to a certain direction in accordance with that the DMD is controlled, the TIR prism system of the present invention includes a first prism for receiving the incidence light on a surface set before, refracting the light, and outputting the refracted light, and a second prism coupled to the first prism for receiving the light outputted from the first prism, transmitting the light to the DMD, and outputting the transmitted light after being totally reflected in accordance with that the DMD is controlled, whereby a loss of light energy inside the system can be reduced.
