A display system is configured to display a stereoscopic three dimensional relief effect in aerial space from a two dimensional image source. The display system has a reflector, having a generalized cylindrical concave surface. The two dimensional image source is arranged between the first side and the second side facing the generalized cylindrical concave surface. The reflector reflects light from the two dimensional image source outward as an aerial image. The aerial image exhibits the stereoscopic three dimensional relief effect. A support structure is operably connected to the reflector and the two dimensional image source. The reflector and the two dimensional image source are adapted to be individually rotated and tilted relative to one another while their position is physically secured.

Systems and methods to reduce the appearance of a seam in an image reflected onto a mirror array from a screen is provided. The systems and methods may include a light source to emit light into a seam between a pair of mirrors of the mirror array; a camera for taking a picture of the image displayed on the screen and yielding image data from the picture; and a control system in communication with the light source and the camera. The control system may be operable to cause the light source to emit light of a first color into a first portion of the seam and to emit light of a second color into a second portion of the seam based on the image data, thereby providing colored light in the seam to substantially match colors in the image reflected onto pair of mirrors adjacent to the seam.

Provided is a sheet-form transparent molding for use for a transparent screen, satisfying both visibilities of a projected light and a transmitted light by anisotropically scattering and reflecting the projected light emitted from a light source. A sheet-form transparent molding according to the present invention comprises a transparent light scattering layer comprising a resin and bright flake-form microparticles.

The control device 50 includes a control unit 52 that controls a state of video projected onto a predetermined projection plane by a projector 20 provided in a space in the moving body 10 on the basis of space situation information input from a sensor that detects a space situation in the moving body 10.

A transparent screen includes a substrate capable of transmitting light; and a plurality of dots formed on a surface of the substrate, each of the dots having wavelength-selective reflectivity and being formed of a liquid crystal material having a cholesteric structure, in which the cholesteric structure gives a striped pattern of bright parts and dark parts in a cross-sectional view of the dot observed by scanning electron microscope, the dot includes a portion having a height that increases continuously to the maximum height in a direction extending from the edge toward the center of the dot, and in the portion, the angle formed by the normal line to a line that is formed by a first one of the dark parts as counted from the surface of the dot on the opposite side of the substrate and the surface of the dot is in the range of 70° to 90°.

Enterprise communication display systems enable life-like images for videoconferencing and entertainment productions. Life-like images appear in a 3D environment where imaged people are visible through the use of specially configured see-through displays. Imaged people can also be viewed amongst a reflected foreground. A dual mode large high-resolution display is inventively configured for watching and working. Methods for enterprise wide deployments for corporate, healthcare, education, and government communications, including hotel properties and a property management system are shown. The invention further discloses an online production system for events. Further, a black void illusion is described and is applicable to numerous displays including event and live theater stages and movie theaters. Numerous inventive features are described enabling and advancing the black void illusion. Virtual stage lighting is disclosed for simulating stage lights and coordination of virtual stage lights with real stage lights for live and recorded performances.

An image display device includes M (M≥2) ultra-short focus projectors and reflective directional screens that reflect projection light rays from the corresponding ultra-short focus projectors. The ultra-short focus projectors are arranged above or below the directional screens on which the ultra-short focus projectors are supposed to project images. Adjacent directional screens are tightly arranged. The adjacent directional screens are arranged to form an angle of less than 180 degrees.
