IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM
An image display system includes a display, a barrier, a second mirror that has a changeable reflection angle for reflecting and projecting image light, a first controller that controls a change in the reflection angle, a camera that captures an image of a face of a driver, and a second controller that clips out a target area from a captured image output from the camera. The second controller shifts the target area as the first controller changes the reflection angle.
STEREOSCOPIC DISPLAY
A direct interaction stereoscopic display system that produces an augmented or virtual reality environment. The system comprises one or more displays, a beam combiner, and a mirrored surface to virtually project high-resolution flicker-free stereoscopic 3D imagery into a graphics volume in an open region. Viewpoint tracking is provided enabling motion parallax cues. A user interaction volume co-inhabits the graphics volume and a precise low-latency sensor allows users to directly interact with 3D virtual objects or interfaces without occluding the graphics. An adjustable support frame permits the 3D imagery to be readily positioned in situ with real environments for augmented reality applications. Individual display components may be adjusted to precisely align the 3D imagery with components of real environments for high-precision applications and also to match accommodation-vergence distances to prevent eye strain. The system's modular design and adjustability allows display panel pairs of various sizes and models to be installed.
Mutli-layer plenoptic displays that combine multiple emissive and light modulating planes
A multi-planar plenoptic display assembly is provided that includes multiple spatially-varying light emitting and light modulating planes. The display assembly includes at least one light emitting device and may include, but does not require, a modulating device used in conjunction according to display methods taught herein to display light field data. A display assembly controller may be used to render a light field with depth into a multi-planar plenoptic display assembly by assigning decomposed portions of the light field to the display assembly for display or presentation by differing ones of the emitting elements and by operating a modulating device to provide a parallax barrier. In one embodiment, a dynamic parallax barrier and a number of bi-state screens. Another embodiment uses a beam splitter to co-locate two pairs of autostereoscopic displays each including a projector projecting 3D content, a parallax barrier, and an emissive/projector element.
Light-source module
A light-source module includes a light-source unit, a first projection lens, a first lens, a mirror wheel, a first light-guiding unit, a second light-guiding unit, and a second projection lens. The first projection lens has an entrance pupil. The light beam provided by the light-source unit can pass through the first projection lens via the entrance pupil and then is guided to the mirror wheel. With the rotation of the mirror wheel, when the light beam passes through the mirror wheel, it becomes a transmission light beam. At different time, when the light beam is reflected by the mirror wheel, it becomes a reflection light beam. The second projection lens has a first exit pupil and a second exit pupil, in which the transmission light beam and the reflection light beam pass through the second projection lens via the first exit pupil and the second exit pupil, respectively.
Autostereoscopic displays
An autostereoscopic display system includes a display including a plurality of addressable pixels. Each of the plurality of pixels includes two or more sub-pixels. The display is adapted to have n views in the horizontal direction wherein n is an integer greater than or equal to 2. A native pixel density of the display in the horizontal direction divided by n is greater than 75% of a native pixel density in the vertical direction. The system further includes a view selector that, for each of two or more viewing perspectives, makes one of the views visible and a multiplexer system in operative connection with the display. The multiplexer system is adapted to controllably shift light horizontally from at least one of the plurality of pixels.
Stereoprojection system
The invention relates to stereo projection systems for displaying stereopaired images on mirror-spherical or parabolic screens and for collectively watching a stereo effect without using stereo spectacles. Said invention makes it possible to continuously dynamically superimpose the projections of the left and right picture frames of a steropair with the user's left and right eyes, respectively. Such impositions are carried out simultaneously and independently for each viewer. The technical result is attainable by that the inventive stereo projection system comprises stereo projectors which are individually allocated to each viewer and in-series connected, a monitoring system for continuously and accurately determining the viewers' eye positions, a self correcting device, video-correcting devices, automatic drives for the mechanical self-correction of the stereo projectors and the system optical elements, units which are used for forming stereopair projected images in the stereo projector and which are coupled with the video-correcting device for the video-correction of the optimal parameters of the screen images. The inventive system makes it possible to carry out the self- and video-correction in an integral manner in such a way that the comfort of the stereo effect viewing is maximally satisfied.
Image flipping processing method and system
A method is provided for a display system including an electronic packaging box and an electronic display device, and the electronic packaging box includes a receiving structure configured to receive the electronic display device, a transmissive/reflective component configured to form a virtual image of the image displayed on the display screen of the electronic display device when viewed by a viewer at a viewing angle. The method includes identifying a type of image information corresponding to image information to be displayed on the display screen, processing the image information based on the type of image information, adjusting at least one of display brightness, display contrast, and Gamma value of the electronic display device based on ambient light condition using a photosensitive component on the electronic packaging box and a gray scale linear transformation, and displaying the processed image information such that the virtual image of the displayed image information on the display screen is a normal image when viewed by the viewer at the viewing angle.
IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS
Provided is an image display apparatus that has a small overall apparatus volume and can be miniaturized. The image display apparatus includes an image display element; a light guide plate on which light emitted by the image display element is incident and which internally and totally reflects the light satisfying a total reflection condition to guide the light; and a retroreflective element that is provided on a surface of the light guide plate and retroreflects the light guided in the light guide plate.
Image display apparatus
An image display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes an optical modulator, an optical device, and a sensor unit. The optical device splits a modulated light beam modulated by the optical modulator into a first split light beam and a second split light beam, the first split light beam and the second split light beam each travelling in a different direction, and prevents a light beam, which backwardly travels on an optical path of the first split light beam and enters the optical device, from travelling along an optical path of the second split light beam. The sensor unit is disposed on the optical path of the second split light beam and detects a state of the second split light beam.
