Patent ID: 7079098

Claim:
An image display system for producing two-dimensional color images, comprising: a self-luminous white/black image display for time-divisionally displaying white/black two-dimensional images corresponding to three primary colors by self-emitting alone, said self-luminous image display including a controller for controlling a switching between a light emitting state and non-light emitting state, and a luminous surface for displaying two-dimensional images by converting electric signals corresponding to image data into optical data; a color shutter configured to be colored by at least three primary colors and for time-divisionally switching a plurality of colors to be displayed, provided in front of said luminous surface of said self-luminous white/black image display, said color shutter including a plurality of liquid crystal cells arranged over an entire display surface and having a plurality of display parts forming portions of the entire display surface and configured to change optical features of each of said plurality of display parts, and transparent electrodes formed on said entire display surface and configured to supply a voltage to at least two display parts of said plurality of display parts by converting positive and negative polarities; wherein said color shutter is configured to optically set display colors for said plurality of display parts and to be driven by a scroll driving, and to display a different color image on each of said display parts in an optical time in a driving condition, so that said transparent electrodes supply a constant voltage having a positive or negative polarity to said liquid crystal cells during a period of displaying a certain color; and wherein said self-luminous white/black image display on which displayed images are two-dimensional is provided on its surface with said color shutter.
