Abstract:
An imaging module includes a spatial light modulator that spatially modulates an incident light flux to emit a modulated light flux, an imaging element that obtains the modulated light flux by the spatial light modulator as image information, and an adjuster that adjusts a space between an imaging surface of the imaging element and the spatial light modulator, wherein the adjuster operates to reduce the space between the imaging surface and the spatial light modulator in response to a temperature rise.
