A stereoscopic image generation box, a stereoscopic image display method and a stereoscopic image display system are provided. The stereoscopic image generation box includes an image receiving and detecting unit, a depth information analysis unit, an image processing unit, a synthesis unit and a data transmission unit. The image receiving and detecting unit is used for receiving a two-dimensional image from an image source. The depth information analysis unit is used for obtaining a depth information according to the two-dimensional image. The image processing unit is used for converting the two-dimensional image into a left-eye image and a right-eye image according to the depth information. The synthesizing unit is used for synthesizing the left-eye image and the right-eye image to generate a stereoscopic image. The data transmission unit is used for outputting the stereoscopic image to a display, so that the display can directly display the stereoscopic image.

Disclosed are methods and systems for displaying content. In an aspect, a plurality of content items can be displayed on one user device according to user preference. An example method can comprise positioning a first set of pixels associated with a user device so that first content displayed via the first set of pixels can be viewable in a first viewing location. A second set of pixels associated with the user device can be positioned so that second content displayed via the second set of pixels can be viewable in a second viewing location. The second content can be different from the first content.

Architecture and designs of modulating both amplitude and phase at the same time in spatial light modulation are described. According to one aspect of the present invention, light propagation is controlled in two different directions (e.g., 0 and 45 degrees) to perform both amplitude modulation and phase modulation at the same time in liquid crystals. In one embodiment, a mask is used to form a pattern, where the pattern includes an array of alignment cells or embossed microstructures, a first group of the cells are aligned in the first direction and a second group of the cells are aligned in the second direction. Depending on applications, two cells from the first group and the second group may correspond to a single pixel or two neighboring pixels, resulting in amplitude modulation and phase modulation within the pixel or within an array of pixels.
