Abstract
An upper display region and a lower display region are provided on a display surface of a single display device used for a combination meter device or the like for a vehicle, and by reflecting a light image of a real image displayed in the lower display region by a reflecting member and projecting the light image in a state of overlapping the upper display region, a virtual image and a portion of the real image are simultaneously displayed to be overlapped on the same region. By arranging the lower display region in a place that becomes a blind spot of a structure such as a steering wheel, it is possible to effectively utilize a space of the blind spot for performing display. By allowing an inclination angle of the reflecting member to be adjusted, position alignment between a region of the real image and a region of the virtual image is implemented even when a viewpoint EP position is changed.
