Abstract
An image display device according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a light source, an image generator, and a projection optical system. The image generator modulates a light beam emitted by the light source and generates image light. The projection optical system includes a first lens system, a first reflection optical system, a second lens system, and a second reflection optical system. The first lens system has a positive refractive power as a whole, and refracts the generated image light. The first reflection optical system includes two or more reflection surfaces, each reflection surface being a surface off which the image light refracted by the first lens system is reflected. The second lens system has a positive refractive power as a whole, and refracts the image light reflected off the first reflection optical system. The second reflection optical system includes a concave reflection surface off which the image light refracted by the second lens system is reflected to be directed to a projected-onto object onto which projection is performed.
