Abstract
A display device includes: a control unit that causes any one of light sources to emit light, each of the light sources emitting light of a different color, generates illumination light of a color from the light emitted from the light sources, using a field-sequential method in which the light sources for emitting light are switched in sequence, and reflects toward a screen, through a reflection unit, the light that corresponds to the display image from among the illumination light; a temperature detection unit for detecting the temperature of a display element; and a temperature adjustment unit for adjusting the temperature of the display element. The control unit stops supplying current to the light sources and supplies current at a first current value only to the temperature adjustment unit when the detected temperature is within a low-temperature or high-temperature non-displayed range of the display element.
