Abstract

A linear array of red LEDsR is provided so as to extend in a direction substantially perpendicular to a direction in which a swing-type display device is swung, and a linear array of green LEDsG is further provided, the red LEDsR and green LEDsG being arranged in pairs of two. A CPU activates each of the red LEDsR and green LEDsG for a predetermined period to emit light in a luminance level in accordance with image data. As a result, an image corresponding to the image data is displayed in the trajectory of the swing due to persistence of vision. Thus, an image can be displayed in various colors.
