## Abstract

To provide a display device that gives a viewer a strong stereoscopic effect or sense of depth in a two-dimensional image and a display device that gives a viewer a natural stereoscopic effect or sense of depth in a two-dimensional image, a display device including a frame portion and a display portion which has a display surface on a frame portion side and is located so as to be apart from the frame portion with a distance therebetween, in which the display portion overlaps with an opening of the frame portion, and an end portion of the display portion overlaps with the frame portion, is provided. In addition, a structure in which a corner of an inner frame of the frame portion has curvature or a structure in which the size of the inner frame of the frame portion is variable is added to the display device.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A display device comprising:
a frame portion having an opening; and
a display portion comprising a display surface,
wherein the display portion partly overlaps with the frame portion,
wherein the display surface is flat,
wherein the frame portion is not parallel with the display surface, and
wherein the frame portion is variable in a shape.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, comprising a driver portion attached to the frame portion.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, wherein the frame portion is configured to have a curved shape.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The display device according to claim 3, wherein the curved shape is a convex shape or a concave shape.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, wherein the frame portion is configured to be inclined with respect to the display surface.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, wherein a whole portion of the display portion is configured to display an image.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The display device according to claim 1, comprising:
a structure body; and
a driver portion,
wherein the display portion is positioned between the structure body and the frame portion, and
wherein the driver portion is attached to the frame portion and the structure body.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The display device according to claim 7, comprising a processing portion comprising:
a memory portion;
an arithmetic processing portion electrically connected to the memory portion; and
a drive control portion electrically connected to the arithmetic processing portion.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The display device according to claim 8, wherein the processing portion is provided with the structure body.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The display device according to claim 8, wherein the processing portion is provided with the frame portion.

### Claim 11

A frame comprising:
a frame portion having an opening,
wherein the frame portion is variable in a shape, and
wherein the frame portion comprises a processing portion.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The frame according to claim 11, comprising a driver portion attached to the frame portion.

### Claim 13 (depends on 11)

The frame according to claim 11, wherein the frame portion is configured to have a curved shape.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The frame according to claim 13, wherein the curved shape is a convex shape or a concave shape.

### Claim 15 (depends on 11)

The frame according to claim 11, wherein the processing portion comprises:
a memory portion;
an arithmetic processing portion electrically connected to the memory portion; and
a drive control portion electrically connected to the arithmetic processing portion.
