Abstract

A display unit for displaying first and second images includes a display device, a parallax barrier arranged facing the display device, and a lenticular lens arranged facing the parallax barrier. The parallax barrier includes a plurality of slit regions. A slit control section alternately switches each slit region between a transmitting state and a shielding state at a predetermined cycle. An image signal output section provides, in synchronization with the switching of the slit region, image data to the display device so that the plurality of pixels of the display device display an image different from the image displayed before switching of the slit region.
