Abstract: A video display apparatus displays videos corresponding to a plurality of observers respectively and comprises a display device. A control unit controls a scan timing so that a sum of a video scanning period from an upper end to a lower end of the display device concerning one video input into the display device and a response period in the lower end of the display device is smaller than a field period of the video. The control unit allows an illumination system to emit light between the end of the response period of the lower end and the start of scanning of the next video in the upper end of the display device.

Abstract: A video display apparatus has one display screen capable of displaying a video corresponding to each of a plurality of observers. An illumination unit emits a first luminous flux and a second luminous flux in at least two different directions in a time divisional manner. A transmission-type display element displays respectively in a time divisional manner by means of raster scanning a first video whose light source is the first luminous flux and a second video whose light source is the second luminous flux. An illumination switching unit sequentially switches two luminous fluxes in synchronism with movement of a boundary portion between the first video and the second video in a display screen of the transmission-type display element.
