Abstract

The backlight module includes multiple backlight units. Each backlight unit includes a first light emitting unit and multiple second light emitting units. The first light emitting unit has a first beam angle, and each second light emitting unit has a second beam angle which is narrower than the first beam angle. In a first mode, a light intensity of the first light emitting unit is equal to a first intensity, and a light intensity of the second light emitting units is equal to a second intensity. In a second mode, the light intensity of the first light emitting unit is equal to a third intensity, and the light intensity of the second light emitting units is equal to a fourth intensity. The first intensity is greater than the third intensity, and the second intensity is less than the fourth intensity.
