An image display system stereoscopically reproduces a visual scene and includes an image display unit with a pair of LCD panels each starting its operation in response to a start pulse received every vertical field of an input video signal; a source of input video signals representing right and left stereoscopic video images every field; a circuit for generating right and left start pulses, which are mutually in an opposite-phase relationship, in synchronism with the arrival of the right and left video images; and a driver for driving the pair of LCD panels by the right and left start pulses. The image display unit is shaped into a virtual viewer incorporated in a ski-goggle type frame which is adapted to be worn on a user's head. The video images displayed on the two LCD panels are refreshed alternately to obtain a flickerless image without the necessity of employing any particular circuit or terminal.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] An image display system for flickerless stereoscopic reproduction of a visual scene, comprising:MOS FET image display means incorporated into a frame adapted for wearing on a user's head and having right and left LCD panels each starting operation thereof in response to a start pulse received at every vertical field of an input video signal, said LCD panels receiving respective right and left video image data, said LCD panels being of a continuous-display type not incorporating write/hold terminals;a source for providing said input video signal to said image display means representing right and left stereoscopic video field images to the right and left eyes, respectively, of said user;start pulse generating means incorporated into the frame for generating right and left start pulses in synchronism with the arrival of said right and left video image data representing the right and left stereoscopic video field images, respectively, said start pulses being mutually in an opposite-phase relationship; andmeans for respectively driving said right and left LCD panels by said right and left start pulses so that, during a given field interval, a right field proper to said given field interval is presented to said right eye and a held-over left field proper to a field interval immediately preceding said given field interval is simultaneously presented to said left eye; and, during a field interval immediately following said given field interval, a held-over right field proper to said given field interval is presented to said right eye and a left field proper to a field interval immediately is presented to said left eye, whereby the user perceives a flickerless stereoscopic image.
