The disclosure provides an image blending method. The method includes projecting a first image and a second image onto a projection surface by a first projector and a second projector, respectively, and the first image and the second image overlap each other; and projecting the first control pattern onto the first image, adjusting the first control pattern such that a first control pattern frame matches a boundary of an overlapping area, and thereby identifying a position of a first non-overlapping area in the first image. Additionally, a similar operation is performed by the second projector to identify a second non-overlapping area in the second image. All pixels in the first non-overlapping area and the second non-overlapping area are adjusted such that the black-level brightness of the first non-overlapping area and the second non-overlapping area correspond to the black-level brightness of the overlapping area to obtain better brightness uniformity.

A convex multi-projector light-field display system includes projectors and a convex diffusion screen facing the projectors. The convex diffusion screen and the plurality of projectors share a same center of curvature, such that each projector projects the image at normal incidence to the convex diffusion screen. Projections of the projectors overlap in an optimal viewing area, within which an observer sees images projected by the projectors, and the optimal viewing area and the plurality of projectors are disposed on opposite sides of the convex diffusion screen.

A novel light source for a 3D display system includes a plurality of left eye light emitters and a plurality of right eye light emitters. The left eye emitters include a broad spectral distribution emitter and an overlapping narrow spectral distribution emitter in each of the blue, green, and red color bands. Similarly, the right eye emitters include a broad spectral distribution emitter and an overlapping narrow spectral distribution emitter in each of the blue, green, and red color bands. The combined spectral distributions of each of the broad and narrow emitters provide a primary light for each color and for each eye that has a desirable spectral shape, including wide bandwidth and short tail(s). The invention thus minimizes cross-talk and speckling in left- and right-eye images of 3D display systems.

A projection device including at least one projection module, at least one reflecting element, and at least one adjusting structure is provided. The projection module has at least one optical axis. The projection module is adapted to provide a projection beam. The projection beam is transmitted along a light transmission path to a projection target to form a projection image. The reflecting element is disposed between the at least one projection module and the projection target and located on the optical axis and has a reflecting surface, wherein the reflecting surface is adapted to reflect the projection beam to the projection target. The adjusting structure is connected to the reflecting element. The adjusting structure is adapted to drive the reflecting element to rotate along a first axis such that the projection image moves horizontally.
