In one embodiment, a method includes a system accessing an image, which may comprise covered and uncovered portions, and an overlay image comprising opaque pixels. The covered portion may be configured to be covered by the opaque pixels of the overlay image. The system may generate a data structure comprising data elements associated with pixels of the image. Each of the data elements associated with a covered pixel in the covered portion of the image may be configured to identify an uncovered pixel in the uncovered portion of the image that is closest to the covered pixel. Each covered pixel in the covered portion of the image may be modified by accessing the data element associated with the covered pixel, determining a distance between the covered pixel and an associated closest uncovered pixel using the accessed data element, and modifying a color of the covered pixel based on the distance.

The present disclosure relates to a surgery support system, a display control device, and a display control method in which a plurality of images can be displayed in an easy-to-see and efficient manner. An information processing device generates a composite image by compositing images output from a plurality of electronic instruments including a medical instrument, and adds, to the composite image, metadata related to division of the composite image. The display control device controls a display device to display, in the virtual three-dimensional space, divided images obtained by dividing the composite image into a plurality of divided regions on the basis of the metadata. The present disclosure can be applied to an endoscopic surgical system, for example.

A method for displaying virtual content to a user, the method includes determining an accommodation of the user's eyes. The method also includes delivering, through a first waveguide of a stack of waveguides, light rays having a first wavefront curvature based at least in part on the determined accommodation, wherein the first wavefront curvature corresponds to a focal distance of the determined accommodation. The method further includes delivering, through a second waveguide of the stack of waveguides, light rays having a second wavefront curvature, the second wavefront curvature associated with a predetermined margin of the focal distance of the determined accommodation.

A lenticular display may be formed with convex curvature. The lenticular display may have a lenticular lens film with lenticular lenses that extend across the length of the display. The lenticular lenses may be configured to enable stereoscopic viewing of the display. To enable more curvature in the display while ensuring satisfactory stereoscopic display performance, the display may have stereoscopic zones and non-stereoscopic zones. A central stereoscopic zone may be interposed between first and second non-stereoscopic zones. The non-stereoscopic zones may have more curvature than the stereoscopic zone. To prevent crosstalk within the lenticular display, a louver film may be incorporated into the display. The louver film may have a plurality of transparent portions separated by opaque walls. The opaque walls may control the emission angle of light from the display, reducing crosstalk. The louver film may be interposed between the lenticular lens film and the display panel.

A display apparatus capable of being installed in an elevator may include: a monitor unit for displaying an output image; and an image processor configured to display, on the monitor unit, at least one of an external image obtained by photographing an external panoramic view of the elevator and a virtual graphic screen related to the external panoramic view. The monitor unit includes a ceiling monitor extending to be inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to a ceiling part of the elevator. The image processor displays, on the monitor unit, a virtual object for giving an effect of providing a sense of boundary between the inside and outside of the elevator to an occupant in the elevator along with the external panoramic view corresponding to at least one of the external image and the virtual graphic screen.

An autostereoscopic device and a method for generating an autostereoscopic image are disclosed. The device includes a substrate, a first image-forming layer disposed on the substrate, a second image-forming layer, a light-transmissive layer positioned between the first image-forming layer and the second image-forming layer, and an addressing unit. The addressing unit is used to substantially simultaneously adjust the first image-forming layer and the second image-forming layer in order to generate an autostereoscopic image. The image-forming layers may be thermally sensitive or they may include capsules containing electrophoretically responsive particles.
