Abstract:
A color image display device comprising:a light source portion for emitting respective light beams of red, green and blue; an image display panel provided with many pixels for modulating an incident light according to color signals of at least red, green and blue; an optical system for directing the respective light beams to enter the image display panel so that the respective light beams from the light source portion form belt-like illuminated regions at different positions on the image display panel and the regions illuminated by the respective light beams move continuously on the image display panel; and an image display panel driving circuit for driving each of the pixels of the image display panel; wherein each of the pixels is driven by a signal corresponding to a color of light entering this pixel, thereby displaying a color image, the respective light beams are directed to enter the image display panel so that the illuminated regions adjacent to each other on the image display panel partially overlap each other, and the pixel that the light beams of the overlapping two colors enter is driven by a brightness signal component.
