Abstract
A light emitting apparatus includes: a liquid crystal section having a liquid crystal layer between a first surface and a second surface that face each other; a light emitting section that has a light output surface and outputs light from the light output surface with respect to the first surface in an oblique direction, in which the light output surface faces the first surface of the liquid crystal section; and an optical component facing the second surface of the liquid crystal section and having an interface, in which the interface is inclined with respect to the second surface and has different refractive indices.
