Claims (5)

A mirror having at least three observation optical systems for obtaining different observation images, wherein the optical axis centers of at least some of the observation optical systems are substantially equidistant from each other. Body,
A stereoscopic image display mechanism provided outside the mirror body and capable of stereoscopically displaying an observation image;
A stereoscopic image observation apparatus comprising: a display image control unit that controls a display form of the observation image and capable of stereoscopically displaying the observation image on the stereoscopic image display mechanism. Position detecting means for detecting a relative position of the stereoscopic image display mechanism with respect to the mirror body;
An image selection unit that optimally selects an observation image obtained by the observation optical system based on a detection position by the position detection unit in order to display the observation image on the stereoscopic image display mechanism. The stereoscopic image observation apparatus according to 1. Four image pickup means for picking up images of light beams by the four observation optical systems,
Stereoscopic image display means for stereoscopically displaying a predetermined pair of images by the imaging means;
In a stereoscopic image observation apparatus having
Of the four observation optical systems, three are arranged at positions where their distances are equal to each other, the center of the optical axis forms a substantially equilateral triangle, and the remaining one observation optical system forms a substantially equilateral triangle from an arbitrary vertex. A stereoscopic image observation apparatus, wherein the stereoscopic image observation apparatus is disposed at a position that is substantially equidistant from one side of the substantially equilateral triangle in a bisecting line segment direction. A mirror body having a mirror body, and at least three observation optical systems provided in the mirror body and each having imaging means for imaging light incident on the mirror body;
Image selection means for selecting at least one pair of images from among images captured by the imaging means;
Display image control means for controlling the display form of the image selected by the image selection means;
A stereoscopic image display mechanism capable of stereoscopically displaying an image created by the display image control means;
A stereoscopic image observation apparatus comprising: The stereoscopic image observation apparatus according to claim 4, further comprising a position detection mechanism that detects a relative position between the mirror body and the stereoscopic image display apparatus.
