  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, smoke 8 a, smoke 8 b, smoke 8 c and smoke 8 that moves so as to flow backward are imaged, as if smoke is emitted from the chimney 7 of the locomotive 6. Thus, it can be recognized that the locomotive 6 is moving forward. Note that the viewing direction from the viewing side is preferably parallel to the image displayed on the video apparatus, and the range in which the retroreflective sheet is within the field of view is preferable because the recognition degree of the spatial image is highest.

  According to the present embodiment, the entity is arranged in front of the spatial image formed as viewed from the viewing side, and is positioned so that a part of the spatial image overlaps a part of the entity from the rear side of the entity, In the shared area where the entity and the image partially overlap, the image of the spatial image in the shared area was formed so that it overlaps behind the entity. Since the position of the spatial image can be clearly identified by visual observation, the entity and the spatial image can be visually recognized as one body, and in addition, the spatial image and the entity can be fused.
