Abstract
An imaging system configured to convert an illumination beam into an image beam includes a first prism including a first surface and a second surface, a second prism, and a light valve. An included angle between the first surface and the second surface is an acute angle. The illumination beam is sequentially transmitted to the first prism, the second prism, and the light valve. The light valve is configured to convert the illumination beam into the image beam, and the image beam is then transmitted to and passes the second prism. A first incident direction of the illumination beam incident on the first prism is perpendicular to a first exit direction of the illumination beam exiting from the first prism. Beam cross-sectional areas of the illumination beam before incident on and after exiting from the first prism are different. A projection apparatus including the imaging system is also provided.
