Image display device capable of displaying images in a plurality of view points for suppressing a problem originating from a light blocking portion arranged in a pixel aperture or a structural object and accomplishing a high aperture ratio

Abstract

An image display device includes a display element having a unit of display comprising sub pixels displaying images for first and second view points, respectively, and an optical unit that distributes lights emitted from respective sub pixels into different directions. When a region surrounded by a data line, a gate line and a storage capacitor electrode in the sub pixel is defined as an aperture, the sub pixels form a base unit that is an adjoining pixel pair including two sub pixels arranged via a data line therebetween. The two sub pixels have switching elements connected to the data line between the two sub pixels and controlled by different gate lines. When virtual lines each evenly dividing a width of the sub pixel in the first direction into K+1 pieces are presumed, K number of storage capacitor lines are each arranged across at least one virtual line in the aperture.
