Abstract

There is provided a display device in which an optical efficiency is improved using a color drum. The display device includes a road lens for totally reflecting an incident light and changing a path of the light. The display device further includes a color drum having a plurality of cell filters arranged cylindrically to face the path of the light outputted from the road lens. Here, the cell filters are in a linear shape. Since the light reflected by the color drum is not lost to the outside, the light efficiency can be enhanced. According to the invention, the linear scroll is possible due to the cell filters that are in the linear shape, so that signal process algorithm can be simplified.
