TWO-IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS
A two-image display apparatus includes: a display panel in which each sub-pixel for displaying a first image and each sub-pixel for displaying a second image are placed alternately at positions adjacent to each other; and a light shielding barrier having apertures for allowing the first and second images displayed in a first visual recognition direction and a second visual recognition direction respectively to be distinguished from each other, wherein the center of each of the apertures is shifted from the center between two-image areas allocated to two the adjacent sub-pixels respectively toward the side of the second visual recognition direction, and there is also provided a correction light shielding section configured to narrow an image area allocated on the side of the first visual recognition direction to serve as the image area provided for one of the adjacent sub-pixels.
1 . A two-image display apparatus comprising:
a display panel in which each sub-pixel for displaying a first image and each sub-pixel for displaying a second image are placed alternately at positions adjacent to each other; and
a light shielding barrier having apertures for allowing said first and second images displayed in a first visual recognition direction and a second visual recognition direction respectively to be distinguished from each other, wherein
the center of each of said apertures is shifted from the center between two-image areas allocated to two said adjacent sub-pixels respectively toward the side of said second visual recognition direction, and
there is also provided a correction light shielding section configured to narrow an image area allocated on the side of said first visual recognition direction to serve as said image area provided for one of said adjacent sub-pixels.
2 . The two-image display apparatus according to claim 1 wherein
said correction light shielding section has a shape which is gradually widened in a direction from said second visual recognition direction to said first visual recognition direction.
3 . The two-image display apparatus according to claim 1 wherein
said correction light shielding section has a shape for partially shielding light propagating in the direction of a column, along which said sub-pixels are laid out, on the side of said first visual recognition direction.
4 . The two-image display apparatus according to claim 1 wherein
said correction light shielding section is created so that the magnitude of an optical leak generated on the side of said first visual recognition direction is equal to said magnitude of an optical leak generated on the side of said second visual recognition direction.
