Abstract
A holographic element is a reflective holographic element formed on a substrate and constituted by a composite hologram having a plurality of patterns of interference fringes composed of interference fringes nonparallel to the substrate. The holographic element forms, out of image light having a predetermined wavelength width emanating from an image display element, a plurality of observation pupils at spatially different locations, and acts in such a way as to fulfill prescribed conditions for an identical incident ray over the entire area in which the image light is incident on the holographic element.
