Abstract
Provided is a head-up display which projects an image on a windshield and forms a virtual image visually recognizable by a viewer. The head-up display includes a display element which displays the image and a projection optical system which guides the image displayed by the display element to the windshield and forms the virtual image. The projection optical system includes at least two mirrors each having a reflective surface with a concave profile. The windshield has a curvature radius Rx in the right-left direction of the windshield which satisfies 0.05<EBx/Rxmax<0.50, where EBx denotes an eye box size in an X direction in which the virtual image is visually recognizable by the viewer, and Rxmax denotes a maximum value of Rx in an effective ray area of the windshield.
