<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image display apparatus capable of providing an observer with a stereoscopic image whether the apparatus is disposed vertically or laterally. <P>SOLUTION: The image display apparatus 1 includes a phase difference plate 8 and a lateral liquid crystal panel 4. By using light transmitted through the polarization control area 8b of the phase difference plate 8 while a display panel 5 is vertically displaced, the image display apparatus 1 provides the observer 20 with a stereoscopic image by making a left eye image L1 incident on the left eye 20a of the observer 20 and making a right eye image R1 incident on the right eye 20b of the observer 20. In addition, by using light transmitted through the polarization control area 4b of the lateral liquid crystal panel 4 while the display panel 5 is displaced laterally, the image display apparatus 1 provides the observer 20 with a stereoscopic image by making a left eye image L2 incident on the left eye 20a of the observer 20 and making a right eye image R2 incident on the right eye 20b of the observer 20. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
