Patent ID: 8791988

Claim:
An image display device comprising: a display panel including a plurality of pixels, the display panel being configured to selectively implement a 2D image and a 3D image; and a patterned retarder configured to divide light from the display panel, on which the 3D image is implemented, into a first polarization component and a second polarization component, wherein the display panel includes: first to fourth gate lines, which cross a data line and are vertically disposed along a column direction in the order named; first and second pixels which are disposed between the first and second gate lines to be vertically adjacent to each other, are connected to the first and second gate lines, respectively, and commonly display a left image of the 3D image when the 3D image is implemented; third and fourth pixels which are disposed between the third and fourth gate lines to be vertically adjacent to each other, are connected to the third and fourth gate lines, respectively, and commonly display a right image of the 3D image when the 3D image is implemented; and a black matrix configured to spatially separate the left and right images of the 3D image from each other, wherein a gate line and the black matrix are not formed between the first and second pixels for commonly displaying the left image of the 3D image, and wherein a gate line and the black matrix are not formed between the third and fourth pixels for commonly displaying the right image of the 3D image.
