Abstract

A projector includes a light exit adjustment mechanism that adjusts (sets) a light exit angle to be used for each of component light fluxes IL that exit from self-luminous devices disposed in a plurality of positions in a light emitter and a circuit apparatus that is a light controller that controls a light exit position and the light exit angle of each of the component light fluxes IL that exit out of the light exit adjustment mechanism in accordance with a projection area PD that is irradiated with the component light fluxes IL having passed through the light exit adjustment mechanism. Under the control of the circuit apparatus, the light exit adjustment mechanism allows the component light fluxes that form image light to exit from a plurality of positions at angles different from each other to perform simultaneous or concurrent projection on the projection area.
