Abstract
An image display machine includes a first planar display to present a two-dimensional image. The two-dimensional image includes an object image. The display machine also includes an image transmitting panel which has a micro lens array. The image transmitting panel is placed in parallel to the first display. The micro lens array includes a plurality of lenses, and has an effective area greater than the object image. The image transmitting panel creates an imaging plane to show a real image of the two-dimensional image on the side opposite the first display. The display machine further includes a second display to present a background image. The second display is located between the imaging plane and the micro lens array. The second display has a transparent or semitransparent area. The display machine has a simple structure, but is able to display the two-dimensional image stereoscopically.
