Abstract

Provided is a device that displays a moving image with high dynamic range. A control unit controls drive of at least one of a light source unit, a phase modulation unit, or an intensity modulation unit in accordance with an image signal. The light source unit applies first illumination light to a phase modulation panel of the phase modulation unit, which modulates a phase of the first illumination light applied from the light source unit, divides second illumination light for each predetermined phase modulation pixel group of the phase modulation panel, and applies the second illumination light to the intensity modulation panel for each predetermined intensity modulation pixel group of the intensity modulation panel, and the intensity modulation panel modulates an intensity of the second illumination light applied from the phase modulation panel.
