A three-dimensional moving image recording device comprising a plurality of optical detectors and a scanning mechanism, said optical detectors being arranged so as to totally receive light beams within a limited solid angle among those light beams passing through a particular viewing point in a space and to individually receive the light beams advancing in different directions, respectively, among those light beams passing through the same viewing point, said scanning mechanism being for vertically and horizontally scanning said viewing point or an image of said viewing point, said device further comprising a mechanism for electronically measuring a time-varying luminous energy incident to each of said optical detectors as a result of scanning by said scanning mechanism to obtain a measurement value and for recording or transmitting said measurement value.
