Abstract
A projection display is provided with an imager that is implemented to generate individual images in a distribution of sub-areas of an imaging plane of the imager. The projection display also includes a multi-channel optics, which is configured to map one allocated sub-area of the imager each per channel, such that the mappings of the individual images are combined to an overall image in a projection area. At least some channels of the multi-channel optics are arranged along at least one curve which is similar to at least one elongated image feature of the overall image, so that a two-dimension anisotropic out-of-focus behavior of each projected image point is obtained. In this way, a large depth of focus range can be combined with relatively high projection brightness without having to accept losses with respect to the focused illustration of image features that are to be projected with sufficient focus.
