Abstract

An image display device includes a display panel having a plurality of pixel display portions arranged in a longitudinal direction and a lateral direction thereof, a plurality of slits arranged on the display panel so as to correspond to spaces between the pixel display portions adjacent to each other, an image input unit acquiring a first input image and a second input image, and a display control portion displaying the first input image and the second input image by alternately imparting input pixel data of the first input image and input pixel data of the second input image to the plurality of pixel display portions in the longitudinal direction and the lateral direction, in which the display control portion prepares display pixel data corresponding to specific input pixel data on the basis of the specific input pixel data of each of the first input image and second input image and at least one neighboring input pixel data adjacent to the specific input pixel data in the longitudinal direction or the lateral direction in the corresponding input image using a predetermined synthesis coefficient.

Claims (12)

1. Image display device, comprising:

a display panel having a plurality of pixel display portions arranged in a longitudinal direction and a lateral direction thereof;

a plurality of slits arranged on the display panel so as to correspond to spaces between the pixel display portions adjacent to each other;

an image input unit acquiring a first input image and a second input image; and

a display control portion displaying the first input image and the second input image by alternately imparting input pixel data of the first input image and input pixel data of the second input image to the plurality of pixel display portions in the longitudinal direction and the lateral direction,

wherein, the display control portion prepares display pixel data corresponding to specific input pixel data on the basis of the specific input pixel data of each of the first input image and second input image and at least one neighboring input pixel data adjacent to the specific input pixel data in the longitudinal direction or the lateral direction in the corresponding input image using a predetermined synthesis coefficient.

2. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the display control unit prepares the display pixel data by synthesizing the specific input pixel data and the sum of two neighboring input pixel data adjacent to the specific input pixel data in the longitudinal direction using the predetermined synthesis coefficient.

3. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the display control unit prepares the display pixel data by synthesizing the specific input pixel data and one neighboring input pixel data adjacent to the specific input pixel data on the upper side or on the lower side in the corresponding input image using the predetermined synthesis coefficient.

4. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the display control unit prepares the display pixel data by synthesizing the specific input pixel data and the sum of two neighboring input pixel data adjacent to the specific input pixel data in the lateral direction in the corresponding input image.

5. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the display control unit prepares the display pixel data by synthesizing the specific input pixel data and one neighboring input pixel data adjacent to the specific input pixel data on the left side or on the right side in the corresponding input image using a predetermined synthesis coefficient.

6. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the synthesis coefficient is 0.3 or more and less than 0.5.

7. An electronic apparatus comprising the image display device according to claim 1 .
