Abstract: The present invention provides a three-dimensional image display capable of presenting stereoscopic display in a true sense not only for a still image but also for a dynamic image without any need for a dedicated eyeglass or coherent light. A multiplicity of screen dots (11) formed by LCDs which allows simple changes of the contents of an image are arranged on a three-dimensional display screen (10), and object images formed by the LCDs are projected in a space to form a multiplicity of point light source images (P) that form a three-dimensional image (R) to be displayed. A viewer (Q) can view the same as a stereoscopic image.

Abstract: Described is a device and method that makes it possible to acquire image information required for displaying a three-dimensional image of an object in a space with a simple configuration and to achieve display of a stereoscopic dynamic image in a true sense with a simple configuration. Light from an object (10) impinges upon a deflecting plate (11). Among the incident beams of light, the deflecting plate (11) allows beams of light at a predetermined angle to the plane of the deflecting plate (11) to pass, the beams exiting as parallel beams of light perpendicular to the plane of the deflecting plate (11). The light passes through a converging lens (12), a pinhole member (13), and a converging lens (14) to impinge upon a CCD (15). An angle of incident light selected by the deflecting plate (11) is sequentially changed as time passes.
