Abstract
An air floating video display system contributes to Sustainable Development Goals 3, 9 and 11. The air floating video display system includes a video display apparatus configured to display a video, a light source apparatus, and a retroreflector configured to reflect a video light from the video display apparatus to display an air floating video that is a real image in air by the reflected light. The light source apparatus includes optical means configured to reduce a divergence angle of a light from a point or surface light source and a reflection surface configured to reflect the light from the light source to propagate it to the video display apparatus, and a part of the divergence angle of the light flux emitted from the light source is adjusted by a shape and surface roughness of the reflection surface provided on the light source.
