Original Abstract Submitted
An image display device includes: a light source unit including: a first display device configured to emit light having a substantially Lambertian light distribution and to display a first image, and an imaging optical system including: an input element on which light emitted from the first display device is incident, and an output element on which light traveling via the input element is incident, the output element being configured to emit light that forms a real image corresponding to the first image; a reflection unit separated from the light source unit, the reflection unit configured to reflect light emitted from the imaging optical system; a second display device configured to display a second image; and an image-forming element configured to display the second image in mid-air based on light emitted from the second display device. The imaging optical system is substantially telecentric at the real image side.
