Image processing apparatus, image display apparatus, and image processing method

An image processing apparatus includes: an initial solution generator that generates, from input images, as an initial solution, internal data of one or more screen images of a layered image, the layered image including multiple screen images consisting of the one or more screen images and one end image; an image generator that iterates a process of generating internal data of the multiple screen images; and a controller that, when a termination condition is satisfied, outputs, as data of the layered image, the finally generated internal data of the multiple screen images. The image generator generates internal data of the multiple screen images from the initial solution in a first round of the process, and then until the termination condition is satisfied, in each round of the process, generates new internal data of the multiple screen images from the internal data generated in the previous round of the process.

MAGNETICALLY SHIELDED ROOM
20200096855 · 2020-03-26 ·

A magnetically shielded room reducing pressure felt by a person inside includes an upper shielding body, a side periphery shielding body, and a lower shielding body, all of which define a magnetically shielded inner space. A magnifying lens is located in the upper shielding body. The magnifying lens can magnify and project an incident image from outside to a range of one inner side surface of the magnetically shielded room. so that the range should be 50% or more of the area of the one inner side surface. The range includes most of the area above a line of sight of a person in the magnetically shielded room. The magnifying lens is provided at a position closer to the one inner side surface as a projection target of the lens than the other inner side surface as a non-projection target facing the one inner side surface as the projection target.

Three-dimensional display adapted for viewers with a dominant eye
20200064643 · 2020-02-27 ·

A mobile device has at least two camera lenses for taking a first image and a second image as a stereo-image pair. The mobile device also has an electronic processor for composing a composite image from first image strips compressed from the first image and second image strips compressed from the second image in an interlaced manner. The composite image is conveyed to a display panel so that a viewer can see a 3D image through a parallax separating sheet with parallax separating units. The composite image can also be electronically shifted by haft an image strip to accommodate a viewer with a dominant eye. The shifting can be initiated by a viewer using a switch on the mobile device.

Digital holographic reconstruction device and method using single generation phase shifting method

A time delay error occurring in the case of acquiring two holograms (object hologram and reference hologram) necessary for reconstruction in the related art or in the case of acquiring four physical holograms having different phase shift degrees may be removed. DC noise (including background noise) may be completely removed by using a software-implemented phase shifting method.

20200053352 · 2020-02-13 · ·

A three-dimensional display apparatus 3 includes a display surface 51, an optical element, and a controller 7. The display surface 51 is formed as a curved surface. The curved surface does not have curvature in a first direction. The curved surface has curvature in a plane orthogonal to the first direction. The display surface 51 includes subpixels arranged in a grid pattern along the first direction and a direction, which is orthogonal to the first direction, in the display surface. The optical element is arranged to follow the curved surface. The optical element is configured to define a beam direction of optical light emitted from the subpixels for each of strip-shaped regions extending in a certain direction in a surface following the curved surface. The controller 7 is configured to acquire a position of a user's eye and change an image displayed by each of subpixels based on the display surface, the optical element, and the position of the user's eye.
