Abstract: An image display device easily displays a stereoscopically two-dimensional image, improving its direction effect and interactivity. A first display displays a first image on a first screen. An image transmission element in a light path for a display light component of the first image transmits the display light component of the first image, displaying a real image of the first image on an image forming surface positioned at a distance on a side opposite the first screen as a stray image. A second display displays a second image on a second screen as a directly visible image so the stray image is observable from an observation position. A position detecting element outputs a position signal corresponding to detected object position. A control element controls the first or second display according to the output position signal so the stray and/or directly visible image changes correspondingly with the position of the object.

Abstract: The display unit displays two-dimensional picture. When the panel unit is at the first position, the microlens unit confronts the display unit with the spacing substantially equal to the focal length of the microlens unit. Therefore, the two-dimensional picture is visualized as a pseudo-stereoscopic picture. On the other hand, when the panel unit is at the second position, the microlens unit does not confront the display unit, and hence a user can directly see the two-dimensional picture on the display unit.
