A lensed display system includes a projector configured to project an image. The lensed display system includes a lens formed of a glass or crystalline material. The lens includes a first surface, wherein at least a portion of the first surface includes a coating that is configured to display the projected image. The lens includes a second surface, wherein the second surface comprises a transparent curved surface that is configured to face toward a user and to enable the user to view the image projected onto the coating through the transparent curved surface.

Techniques are described for using the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0 television protocol to deliver volumetric information for presentation on various displays using ATSC over-the-air communications channels.

Position based media pipeline systems and methods for volumetric displays provide content to a volumetric display having at least two pixels arranged in a 3D coordinate space. A three-dimensional (3D) pixel position dataset and a 3D animation are provided and a first volume representation based on the 3D animation is created. A second volume is created based on the first volume and including color data. A texture atlas is assembled based on the second volume and volumetric image data is generated based on the texture atlas. The position based media pipeline outputs the volumetric image data to one or more graphic controllers. The volumetric image data can be output whereby a user can preview the volumetric image data in addition to output to the volumetric display.

A volumetric display capable of high-speed image presentation includes a resonance-type liquid lens having a focal length that is periodically adjusted using resonance of a liquid. An image projector projects an image toward a viewpoint position of a user via the resonance-type liquid lens. Further, the image projector projects an image toward the viewpoint position within a shorter time period than one-tenth of a variation cycle of the focal length. The image projector includes an LED and a DMD, for example.

The embodiments relate to a method comprising receiving as an input a volumetric video frame comprising volumetric video data (910); decomposing the volumetric video frame into one or more patches, wherein a patch comprises a volumetric video data component (920); packing several patches, where at least two patches of the several patches comprise a different volumetric video data component with respect to each other, into one video frame (930); generating a bitstream comprising an encoded video frame (940); signaling, in or along the bitstream, existence of encoded video frame containing patches of more than one different volumetric video data component (950); and transmitting the encoded bitstream to a storage for rendering (960). The embodiments also relate to a technical equipment for implementing the method.

A method and technical equipment for encoding, where the method comprises at least receiving a video presentation frame, where the video presentation represents a three-dimensional data in the form of mesh data (810); separating from the mesh data information on vertices, wherein the information comprises at least connectivity data defining connections between vertices (820);

determining parameters relating to said connectivity data (830); encoding the parameters to a first bitstream as a video component (840); and storing the encoded first bitstream for transmission to a rendering apparatus (850). In addition to encoding, also decoding is disclosed.

A light field (LF) display system for displaying holographic content within an adult entertainment context is disclosed. The LF display system includes a plurality of LF displays that, in one embodiment, are tiled to form an array of LF displays within an environment and the LF display system may customize a viewer's experience using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) models that track and respond to each viewers movements and/or requests in the environment, their behaviors (e.g., body language, facial expressions, tone of voice, etc.) through various sensors (e.g., cameras, microphones, LF display sensors, etc.). Accordingly, the result is an adult entertainment environment customize for each viewer including AI holographic performers that engage viewers within the environment.
