A METHOD, APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR REDUCING CROSSTALK OF AUTO STEREOSCOPIC DISPLAYS
The disclosure describes a method, apparatus and system for reducing crosstalk of auto-stereoscopic displays using higher resolution panels. In such panels, a fraction of a total number of views is generated by sending a same signal on a number of adjacent views. A signal processing correcting function is applied to the fractioned views to reduce crosstalk.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISPLAYING THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS
A system for displaying three-dimensional objects using two-dimensional visualization means simultaneously providing at least effects of binocular parallax and motion parallax, the system comprising: a display configured to display a sequence of images; a pair of glasses configured to provide stereoscopic separation of images, the glasses comprising at least two optical shutters and at least two markers; two optical sensor arrays; two reading and processing devices configured to read data from an area of the optical sensor array and to determine 2D coordinates of the markers; a marker coordinates prediction device configured to extrapolate coordinates of the markers so as effective overall delay does not exceed 5 ms; a marker 3D coordinates calculation device; a 3D scene formation device; and at least one image output device. The invention also includes a corresponding method of displaying three-dimensional objects and provides realistic representation of three-dimensional objects for one or more viewers.

3D ARTS VIEWING ON DISPLAY DEVICES
An apparatus for three dimensional (3D) art viewing includes one or more sensors and a processor operably coupled to the one or more sensors. The processor is configured to detect, using the one or more sensors, a position of a user. The processor is additionally configured to output, for display, an aspect of an image based on the position of the user. The processor is also configured to obtain, using the one or more sensors, movement data associated with a movement of the user. The processor is further configured to apply temporal smoothing to smooth the movement data. In addition, the processor is configured to map the smoothed movement data to a series of view indices. The processor is also configured to change the aspect of the image for display based on the mapped series of view indices.
