Device for displaying imagery three-dimensionally
First Claim
1. A device for displaying imagery three-dimensionally on a spherical surface, comprising:
- a first spherical image reproduction surface capable of reproducing an image from a first projector and indicating a first imagery, said first image reproduction surface including an image reproduction surface for allowing said first imagery to be indicated thereon; and
a second spherical image reproduction surface capable of reproducing an image from a second projector and indicating a second imagery, said second image reproduction sphere having an image indication surface for allowing said second imagery to be indicated thereon;
wherein said first and second image reproduction surfaces are arranged such that said image reproduction surface of said first image reproduction surface is an opposedly facing relation with said image indication surface of said second image reproduction surface,and wherein said image indication surface of said second image reproduction surface includes a reflective surface for reflecting said first imagery from said first image reproduction surface,wherein a three dimensional image is displayed on said second image reproduction spherical surface.

Abstract
Device for displaying imagery three-dimensionally, which comprises a first image reproduction element having an image reproduction surface and a second image reproduction element having an image indication surface of reflective property. Those image reproduction and indication surfaces are in an opposedly facing relation with each other, such that an imagery reproduced and indicated on the image reproduction surface is reflected by the image indicating surface to form a reflected imagery which is viewed by the eyes of person as if it was a three-dimensional image. One or both of such image reproduction and indication surfaces may be curved to have convex and concave surface sides, wherein the concave surface side is formed to have diffuse reflective property. The convex surface sides respective of those two surfaces may be in an opposedly facing relation with each other. Preferably, such two surfaces may each be a screen of light-transmissive type.
