Abstract

A projection screencomprises a total reflection prism lensand a lenticular lensprovided on the viewer's side of the total reflection prism lens. The total reflection prism lenshas a plurality of unit prismson its back surface (the outermost plane of incidence) on which imaging light L is incident. Each unit prismhas an apical angle λ that corresponds to the angle between the plane of incidenceand the plane of total reflection, and the apical angles λ of the unit prismsvary with the position of each unit prismon the screen plane. In particular, the unit prismshave apical angles λ varying continuously from 30° to 45° so that the apical angles λ on the side distant from the center O of the concentric circles are greater than the apical angles λ on the side close to this center O.
