Abstract
In a windshield () of a vehicle equipped with a head up display formed from laminated glass, exterior glass (), an intermediate layer (), an image display layer () and interior glass () are laminated; since the image display layer () is interposed between the interior glass () and the intermediate layer () (or between the exterior glassand the intermediate layer), and the thickness of the exterior glass () is made smaller than the thickness of the interior glass (), a distance (T) from the image display layer () to the outer surface of the exterior glass () can be made small. It is therefore possible to reduce the displacement between a real image formed from light directly emitted toward a driver from an image () on the image display layer () and a reflected image formed from light emitted from the image () and reflected by the outer surface of the exterior glass (), thus minimizing ghosting of the image and thereby enhancing visibility.
