A three-dimensional display device includes a display, a barrier, and a controller. The display displays a parallax image including a right-eye viewing image and a left-eye viewing image. The barrier defines a traveling direction of image light of the parallax image. The controller causes a black image to appear between the right-eye viewing image and the left-eye viewing image based on a parallax value of the parallax image.

Three-dimensional display device, image display system, and movable body

A three-dimensional display device includes a display panel that displays a parallax image, an optical panel including a plurality of less-transmissive portions and a plurality of transmissive portions repeatedly arranged alternately in a parallax direction, and a controller that controls the display panel. Each of the plurality of transmissive portions has a first width in the parallax direction greater than a second width of each of the plurality of less-transmissive portions in the parallax direction. The controller causes the display panel to display a black image in a binocular viewable area on the display panel viewable to two eyes of a user to allow parallax separation of the parallax image.

Three-dimensional display device, three-dimensional display system, and movable object

A liquid crystal display device prevents light leakage in a black display of a projected image when a light source reaches a higher temperature, and displays a high-quality image without any lost sense of reality. The device includes a light-transmissive liquid crystal display element including two glass substrates and a liquid crystal layer sealed between the glass substrates, a backlight device that emits light toward one glass substrate in the liquid crystal display element, an emission-light polarizing plate on the other glass substrate, an incident-light polarizing plate on the one glass substrate, and a polarizer being a plate and including a base layer including a glass substrate and a metal layer stacked on the base layer and having a polarization function. The polarizer is located with the base layer facing the incident-light polarizing plate. The base layer is thicker than each of the glass substrates.

Liquid crystal display device

A head-up display includes a display panel, a parallax barrier, an optical system including a reflector and an optical member, and a controller. The optical system projects a virtual image of an image displayed by the display panel onto a virtual image plane. The controller controls the display panel such that first second images which have a parallax with each other are projected as a three-dimensional image in a field of view of the user, and a convergence angle at which the user views a point on the three-dimensional image is equal to or less than a maximum convergence angle which is greater by 0.43 degrees than a convergence angle for viewing a point on the virtual image plane and is equal to or greater than a minimum convergence angle which is less by 0.43 degrees than the convergence angle for viewing a point on the virtual image plane.
