ABSTRACT:
Provided is an image display system in which image data of a commercial product as an article (8) is freely selected and given to a purchaser by using two-way communication such as Internet and the article (8) can be observed from a view point desired by the purchaser. In this system, the article (8) is placed on a turn table (16) which rotates around a rotational axis (15), an image is taken by a camera (9) installed on a wrist (19) of a robot (18) of plural axes while keeping camera posture Nv so that an optical axis (21) of the camera (9) passes through an observation point of the article (8), for example, a flower, and image data for respective plural imaging positions are stored in the memory (31). An operator specifies the imaging position continuously so that the image data corresponding to the specified imaging position is read out from the memory (31) and displayed by a display means (28) with a control means.
