Image display apparatus includes liquid crystal cell, flat plate-shaped back frame, light guide plate, and a pair of support mechanisms. The pair of support mechanisms are fixed to back frame in positions at which light guide plate is clamped at both sides that intersect a first axis (X-axis). The pair of support mechanisms each includes movable component that supports light guide plate, body component that movably retains movable component, and elastic member that pushes movable component toward opposite support mechanism. Protrusion is disposed on movable component, and engagement section with which protrusion engages is disposed on light guide plate. Engagement section includes tab that is formed outwardly on an end surface of light guide plate, and notch disposed on tab and engages with protrusion.

Image display apparatus

An eyewear device which adjusts a transmitted light amount to a left eye and a right eye of a viewer to perform an assistance operation, which assists the viewer in viewing images so that the viewer stereoscopically perceives the images, comprising: a receiver configured to receive a synchronization signal in synchronization with display of the images; and a controller which analyzes a signal configuration of the synchronization signal after power supply is started for the assistance operation, and switches a control mode between a first control mode and a second control mode, which is different from the first control mode, based on an analysis result of the signal configuration.

Eyewear device and method for controlling eyewear device

A request change unit outputs a command as a request under control of a judgment control unit. A response condition determination unit determines a condition that is to be matched by a correct response which is to be returned from the other device-in-communication in reply to the command if the other device-in-communication operates in conformity with a protocol. A check unit checks a response received from the other device-in-communication in reply to the command, against the condition. If the received response does not match the condition but is correctable to match the condition as a result of the check, a response correction unit corrects the received response to match the condition under control of the judgment control unit.
