A method of displaying stereoscopic information related to an ultrasound sectional plane of a target object includes setting a line of interest on the ultrasound sectional plane of the target object based on a received input; obtaining an ultrasound signal of the ultrasound sectional plane of the target object along the set line of interest; converting the obtained ultrasound signal to represent the stereoscopic information in a three-dimensional manner; and displaying the stereoscopic information related to the ultrasound sectional plane of the target object.

A method is provided for generating an autostereoscopic display. The method includes acquiring a first parallax image and at least one other parallax image. At least a portion of the first parallax image may be aligned with a corresponding portion of the at least one other parallax image. Alternating views of the first parallax image and the at least one other parallax image may be displayed.

Relay systems and methods are operable to redirect light corresponding to a light field or holographic object such that imagery generated by a light field or other display is perceived by a viewer without having to address the display itself.

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.

A digital display interface (40) connects a first audio-visual device (10) to a second audio-visual device (20). Stereoscopic image data is transmitter over the display interface (40). Components of stereoscopic image data are multiplexed and inserted into an image data carrying element. An existing deep color mode can be re-used for this purpose. Signaling information to help identify or decode the stereoscopic image data is carried in auxiliary data carrying elements. Stereoscopic image data can be distributed between image data carrying data elements and auxiliary data carrying data elements. Auxiliary data carrying elements can be transmitted in horizontal or vertical blanking periods, and can comprise HDMI Data Island Packets. Stereoscopic image data can be sent over an auxiliary data channel. The auxiliary data channel can form part of the same cable as is used to carry a primary channel of the display interface, a separate cable, or a wireless link.

A multi-view display controller determines view angles for each view of a multi-view media content for each viewer watching a multi-view display. The view angles determined for a viewer collectively define a viewer cone that displays the views onto the viewer. Media data of the multi-view media content is output together with information of the determined view angles to the multi-view display in order to allow each viewer to have the same experience of displayed media content regardless of where the viewer is positioned relative to the multi-view display.

A three-dimensional (3D) display apparatus, display module, and a manufacturing method thereof, are provided. The 3D display apparatus includes a display module including a first display panel configured to display a two-dimensional (2D) image, a second display panel disposed in front of the first display panel and spaced apart from the first display panel, and configured to display another 2D image that when combined with the 2D image displayed by the first display panel generates a 3D image, and a spacing panel comprising a rear surface on which the first display panel is attached and a front surface on which the second display panel is attached, the spacing panel providing an amount of space between the first display panel and the second display panel.

A light field display device comprising at least one multiplexed light field display module, the multiplexed light field display module comprising a view image generator, a waveguide, and a set of shutters spatially distributed along the waveguide, the view image generator optically coupled to the waveguide, the waveguide optically coupled to each shutter, the view image generator operable to generate a set of beams of light from one of a set of view images, the waveguide configured to transmit the set of beams along its length via internal reflection, each shutter operable to be switched between a closed state and an open state, the closed state of the shutter configured to prevent the beams from escaping the waveguide, the open state of the shutter configured to allow the beams to escape the waveguide, the module operable to generate, over time, the set of beams from a different one of the set of view images, and to open, over time, a different subset of the set of shutters, thereby to allow the set of beams escaping from the subset to correspond to a different one of the set of view images.

A floating-information display includes a first quarter-wave retarder disposed on a side of an optical plate. A reflective polarizer is disposed between the first quarter-wave retarder and the optical plate. A first display is configured to transmit a first image along a first axis through the first quarter-wave retarder to the reflective polarizer. The reflective polarizer redirects the first image along a second axis through the first quarter-wave retarder toward a viewer. The first image appears to the viewer to be oriented normal to the second axis and at a first location. A second display is configured to transmit a second image to the optical plate. The second image is transferred through the first quarter-wave retarder along the second axis toward the viewer. The second image appears to the viewer to be oriented normal to the second axis and at a second location.

A system and methods for a CODEC driving a real-time light field display for multi-dimensional video streaming, interactive gaming and other light field display applications is provided applying a layered scene decomposition strategy. Multi-dimensional scene data is divided into a plurality of data layers of increasing depths as the distance between a given layer and the plane of the display increases. Data layers are sampled using a plenoptic sampling scheme and rendered using hybrid rendering, such as perspective and oblique rendering, to encode light fields corresponding to each data layer. The resulting compressed, (layered) core representation of the multi-dimensional scene data is produced at predictable rates, reconstructed and merged at the light field display in real-time by applying view synthesis protocols, including edge adaptive interpolation, to reconstruct pixel arrays in stages (e.g. columns then rows) from reference elemental images.
