ABSTRACT:
An information receiving/display apparatus, which can receive and display third sensory information such as tactual information or olfactory information in addition to visual and/or audio information. A number of image display optical fibers and tactual representation fibers both having cores made of a liquid are arranged in alignment, and a number of image display control signal lines and tactual representation control signal lines made of piezoelectric element are aligned across the fibers, thereby to form the information receiving/display apparatus.
