Abstract

A display device for a vehicle includes: a display, a polarization switching unit, a reflector, and a controller. The polarization switching unit includes a wave plate that can cause emission light of the display to be emitted while changing a polarization direction thereof, and a drive device that can rotate the wave plate between a position of not using polarizing sunglasses and a position of using polarizing sunglasses. The controller rotates the wave plate within a prescribed range, detects luminance values for each fixed rotation angle of the wave plate within a prescribed range from imaging information of an imaging device that transmits a principal component of transmitted light of the wave plate at a position of the eye box, and sets, as a correction angle, a rotation angle of the wave plate corresponding to a maximum luminance value among the luminance values.
