Abstract

The present invention provides an image synthesizing system for forming a synthesized image by superimposing two images one on another through a half mirror. The image synthesizing system includes a half mirror located in an optical path extending toward a display section; a diorama disposed in one of the transmissive- and reflective-side optical paths and having at least one movable part; and a video display disposed in the other of said transmissive- and reflective-side optical paths such that the video scene of said video display will be superimposed over the image of said diorama through said half mirror. The video scene is superimposed over the image of the diorama to form a synthesized scene such that the video scene is variable in combination with the motion of the movable part in the diorama.
